Title: Fell through timewarp - landed in future gym!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Ex Coelis on July 10, 2007, 12:53:32 PM
So I've been going to a gym in downtown Ottawa becuase they give free access to military personnel but it wasn't until today that I noticed something crazy. I was warming up my knees on the leg extension machine when lights started flashing in front of me. There was a monitor attached to the machine that counted my reps, recorded my rep speed, and displayed my range of motion on a graph.

It was at this time that I noticed that all of the machines had this fancy Technogym technology. There's really no room for any of them in my workouts, but I thought they were neat nonetheless.

I've caught a glimpse into the techno-future-gym of the future and it's kind of cool. Everbody loves flashing lights . . .

This is going to be way better and get you way bigger than stupid old Barbells and Dumbells.  Machines are how you get HUGE.  Blinking lights always make you bigger and that shit about the rep speed, wow I can only think of one word and that is usefull, even if they all break inside of 6 months 8)

If you are still there, visit the YMCA on merivale road. That was my first gym and most awesome one. It's a huge gym on the second floor of mericale mall.
