So what are some quirks you know about your gym? I'll start
> gym has two types of 45s, one secretly 43 lbs and one 46lbs
>newbies would deadlift with mismatched plates and the bar would tilt severely
> girl at the front desk picks out horrible music after 12am
> there's one guy with a deadlift higher than 99% of your gym at 130lbs
> The staff strictly prohibit you to do deadlifts in the best place to do deadlifts (less rubber mats meaning a better foundation for your feet also no chance of fucked up mats pushing the bar in weird directions)
> one of the bars is actually a expensive bearing bar that looks nearly identical to the rest, but is much better
> one of the bars is a bit thicker, and weighs 46 lbs
So? Any small details you noticed about your gym?

Oh yeah plenty
>three malfunctioning treadmills that have never been replaced
>only one has a nice cardio program that the rest doesn't
>one bar has a loose collar. another one appears to have one but it's actually perfect
>some 25 lbs dumbells actually weight a lot more
>the lever in a machine is completely fucked making it heavier than the other ones for w/e reason
>PT always puts on a GMA program at 8.00 am, a Lifetime show for elderly at 9.30 am, the evening news right after 19:30

On the left side of the taller of the two water fountains right outside the free weight room, the screw closest to the front is loose and just sort of sitting in its hole. I jiggle it around whenever I take a drink.

This was my old gym. This little Asian guy would come in late at night and do 4pl8 5x5. Never said anything to anyone, just walked to the free weight area, did his lifts and left.
