I've run across a serious problem.
I'm just starting out on my journey for fitness after reading the sticky. Unfortunately, the area I live in doesn't really have good gyms.
There's the local YMCA which is usually packed to the brim and is mostly ellipticals and treadmills.
The other is an Anytime Fitness which has a little more free weights than the YMCA but unfortunately has a staunch "no sound" rule where if you even breath hard you're thrown out with your membership revoked.
In this situation what should I do? Buy my own equipment? Focus on calisthenics first? I'm at a loss, guys.

I live in what's considered a "well off retirement community". A lot of the elderly seem to be offended by "brutes".
I'm not fucking with you.

I work out at an Anytime Fitness. That "no sound policy" sounds likes bullshit.
calisthenics
Start up your own gym that is better than those shit holes and make easy money while getting fit

They're offended by brutes because theyre big dudes with ugly faces
If you have a good looking face with a /fit/ body, you will be lusted on by the old women and even old men

Gotta keep in mind that it is a franchise to a certain extent. The owners of the one in my town are pricks.
I use a busy YMCA that is near unusable every january, I just suffer through it and cringe at people doing all manner of dumb shit with equipment. I have seen literally every exercise performed on a bosu ball.
