I take a gallon with me and I always drink at least half of it while the gym. See, people tend to sweat when they exert themselves. If they're exerting themselves a lot then they will sweat a lot. It's kinda important to stay hydrated.
And why the **** should it affect other people that you're carrying a jug???
ok no looking at the ladies - ill wear those blinkers horses wear
no talking
no showing skin
no showing too much water
no enjoying music at your own volume in your own ears
WTF! No Deadlifts, is a rule???? That is very lame! And what's wrong with string tanks tops? I have been doing deads since I started and cannot see why people have a problem with them!
I had a trainer once draged her client away from me when she saw me doing them!
As for the rules, I would definitley find another gym. What type of gym, make rules about what exercises arew allowed???
I am most shocked that this is at a Gold's Gym. that's where the hardcore people go here.

Q. How do you know if you are working hard enough?
A. Try to kill yourself and if you not dead yet, try harder!
I got a buddy that goes to Planet Fitness. They have those damn alarms that go off if you make too much noise. There's no damn deads alowed there either. I have a membership at a "fitness" gym also, they don't like it when I deadlift, but they don't say a damn word to me about it. Maybe it's intimadating.......

I had to find a new gym recently. I called Planet Fitness and was asking if they have the three things I need: power rack, bench, barbell.
They have a bench, that's about it. No free barbells, but they do have SMITH MACHINES! All hail the smith machine!
I ended up going to a Lifetime Fitness, which is a gigantic ass building with at least 100 weight machines. They do have two power racks and a squat rack though, so I'm happy!
They don't have dip bars that aren't on some stupid assist station though, which sucks.
Um.....actually we do!!! I thought this was a GOLDS GYM, not a curves gym (no offense intended to those who work out there).
Yeah, I've checked out PlanetFitness.com and the owner of the Nebraska Golds is ripping off the business model from them. Hell, even our new paint scheme, which looks like a bag of skittles got loose, is based on the planet fitness colors.
I've heard the LUNK Alarm going off a few times, they give you a warning, then you are done. These rules apply to the 2 omaha gyms and the lincoln gym.
haha, who would bring their own equipment to the gym?
Oh wait going to the gym, let me bring my dumbbells
Haha. When I first read the rule I figured it was talking about weight belts or dip belts or the sort, but that'd be utterly retarded. Then again, so is not allowing deadlifts.

No dipping belt
No weights between your legs
No dumbbells between your feet
No chains
No training without gloves
No flexing in front of the mirror
And in order to train here you are required to wear a pink spandex suit.
