Has Jow Forums ever thought about opening a gym?

This would probably be deemed as sexist even though there's women's only gyms everywhere
We truly live in a society

What's to not know? You rent a space, fill it with equipment, buy a FUCKLOAD of liability insurance, consult a lawywer for the structure of liability waivers, informed consent forms, and payment/membership contracts, and consult your city and state for all the little restrictions about what you can and can't do. Where the fire extinguisher and first aid kit and AED should be, etc.

It's profitable the moment your memberships can afford to make your business loan payments, rent the building, maintain the equipment, and profit. Good luck getting your bills paid on top of it though.

Naw, they had a few thousand in the bank to pay rent up front and already had clientele from working independently. Most equipment came from connections they happened to have.

Can't spend too much on equipements that you won't use
Best to buy some machines that everybody is going to use and a few treadmills
Possibly a lat pull down, a cable machine, a fly machine and a leg curl machine

was about to post this

You can do what my friends did. Give your gym the grunge aesthetic and let everyone drop weights. Most thots will be repelled by that alone.

Go to Kroeger and drink a gallon of milk.

That gay is really coming through

Imagine roiding to 250lbs 15% bf and sacrificing your hairline for a 6/10, and the extent of her looksmaxing routine is laying in the sun for 30 minutes and dying her hair blonde.

Just imagine shortening your lifespan by a decade to date a girl who spends less time on her appearance than you do.

none of that whatsoever is necessary to date a girl like that. one of the chubbiest dudes from my highschool has such a fucking cute, busty redhead gf I am so envious, and it's purely because of his personality.

women and faggots really ruin everything

Don't forget the pictures of zyzz

The lighting on his chest makes it look like a giant arm is coming out of his stomach and fist bumping his gf’s shoulder.

Changs from Korea would probably hear it all the time in their gyms.

Read my post again retard. I'm saying the guy far outleagues the girl and his roiding and loss of hairline were for nothing.

Really shitty business plan. Don't even make it a business at that point and just lift with your friends in a basement. Some of us actually enjoy some extra test boost from female ass strolling around. They have never bothered me, they do not take up the free weights and don't make retard noises like you're suggesting. To be honest I rather have more women around than you fucking apes.

Wholesome, i'd get behind this life choise.

I can tell your DYEL from that 4channel.org message you just sent buddy.. nothing worse than having a bunch of chicks checking me out while I lift and making me feel uncomfortable

Had an idea for one, sorta
>Im really into martial arts/boxing
>Friend is a sniper-in-training for the military
>Other friend is a fencer/into that HEMA shit
>Gym would have weights, a track, etc.
>There would be a boxing ring and several mats on the main floor with the weight room on one end
>A fencing set up with several racks for HEMA swords/spears/shields, etc. upstairs in the middle of the track
>Shooting range and a set up for drills/something like more realistic paintball
>Climbing wall and parkour/obstacle course outside

Each of us would have a program that new members could sign up for along with their membership. I'd probably hire a weight coach and maybe a parkour/cardio instructor for people who wanted normie workouts

~lest we forget~

I'd go to that gym

Location
Equipment
Trainers
Sometinhg to stand out

It's really hard to open a gym and succeed, there's one on every fucking corner these days. You need to find a place where there is a specific need and supply it.

You'd only be uncomfortable if you're lifting baby weights
If you're going heavy you want females to mire you while you mog all the dyels

Small gyms are dying, it's all big chains now. It's something you should do as a side project to your day job because you can't hope to live off it.

yeah, but I need at least $100,000 to open one up.

Shoop

>Has Jow Forums ever thought about opening a gym?
yes
>It's my dream but I don't know how to do it.
thousands of dollars

Holy shit who is this guy and how did he get to be so big?

Insurance costs make it unprofitable for small gyms.

He's a big guy

Man i would definitely go to that gym

>implying the greeks weren't massive faggots themselves

Came here to post exactly this

Imagine they havin som sex

That's some pretty good photoshop over there.

Here OP, hear to what Thrall's got to say about it:

pls this is my dream.
t. paying $200 a month for separate gyms

you basically have to be a personal trainer tier dishonest shill faggot to make it, which turns me off. if I made a gym it would be a private club with the best equipment and strict membership requirements, and I would go bankrupt in months

>Manlets have their own separate entrance to the gym
>Tis merely a trap that leads them to an inescapable pit

ROI means normie tier shit like a million treadmills so half baked thots can pay you lots to never use them.

Bottom Text bro

Yeah there are only shitty chain gyms in my area right now. My city got really unlucky and the only new serious gym around is a retarded crossfit warehouse that costs $100/month

I have a dream of buying an old run down factory downtown and making it a meathead paradise where men go to worship manliness. We would have scholarships for people who could lift enough, or dyels who could make consistent progress, full olympic setups, minimal machines, be mostly open air in nice weather.

Fast-growing city, I give myself about 5 years. I don't even care if it's profitable desu. After I pay back any business loans I'd run it at a loss idgaf

Crossfit gyms often have really good kit but they only let you do the gay routines and my spine is getting a little too old to put up with time based lifting.

better not be sied or Monsieur Cavalier will internally rotate your bumhole

I'm looking for the original source of this image. This guy is my ideal body.

"Your search did not match any documents." on Google and TinEye

This works ok, so long as it is in a cheap area to rent the space, and you have a second source of income.

In my area there's a gym owned by a partially disabled veteran. He's fucked up, but he can still lift. He get's paid enough to survive and pay his rent by the VA, and he has a small gym that caters to powerlifters, strongmen, some bodybuilders and all types of roiders.

None of it's terribly new equipment. No monolift. No cables.

Deadlift stations. Squat racks. One bench press bench. Adjustable benches you can use the squat racks for your other benching. Big rack of old dumbells. Couple strongman logs too. Few big atlas stones and some natural big rocks.

He keeps the stuff properly oiled, and you're allowed to bring in your own better equipment.

There are some buckets for puke. Clean up after yourself if you spew. Other buckets for chalk. The wall by the dumbells has mirrors and there is one by one of the deadlift platforms. There are a couple cracks on the ones by the dumbells held together by duct tape.

There's one shower in the men's locker room, and probably the same in the girls one, which is hardly ever in use.

Oh, and in the locker room he has a need container that he replaces every month.

Several of the guys who train there are roiding cops too so bascially everyone looks the other way with what goes on in there.

He doesn't make much money on memberships. He likes the little community he's built. It's possible his income is supplemented by other things too...

OP where did you get this image???

Who is this person?

You forgot
>get a business license from your city
>buy insurance so when people kill themselves in your gym you dont get sued into bankruptcy
>work early and late unless you want to pay multiple employees out of pocket until your gym makes money

You seem mad. She looks like a qt and it would be so fun to be as huge as him and have this little blonde plaything you could powerfuck into oblivion. Plus he has an ugly nose and looks eastern european and has a tiny roid dick. It evens out.

If I can ever get my career off the ground I might open one in a decade or two if the opportunity presents itself.
That and a small bistro.

I go to a gym like this but without as much roid culture. Filthy 80s equipment, grungy warehouse, mostly dudes, lots of old powerlifters, super friendly owner. It costs $200/year.

you mean a statue weighing 600 kgs
if you can lift it you're crowned king of the gym

Have also put some thought into something like this

However with PF everywhere offering cheap as fuck memberships you won't be able to compete unless you find smaller areas without one
