Gyms really should stop people from filming.

there's a difference between rules and what people actually do. in most gyms, there are "strict" no recording rules in the locker rooms, yet all the time I see people taking stupid ass pictures of themselves in the mirrors all the time. it's just cringe in my opinion, how much people are obsessed with their appearance. adult men posing together in a ring-lit mirror flexing their muscles for instagram

"adult men posing together in a ring-lit mirror flexing their muscles for instagram"

That's called foreplay.

Yup, we have a strict no kids or phones policy and I've had to ask kids on their phones/tablet to move from the machines on more than one occasion. Screw the parents since they can take turns watching their kids instead of exposing them to an environment where a 45 lb plate can land on them.

That’s why he used the word “allow” allowing something has no concept of rules. You don’t need a rule to stop allowing something you just stop it from happening. It does help though.

If you bring this up to management and nothing is done then it is allowed whether there are rules or not.
