Arnold's hair dye job is always horrible.

Yeah, that gym looks too upscale and not very motivating.

That's the hotel gym from the "Stanglwirt", a high-class hotel/spa resort in Tyrol/Austria, the district I'm coming from. The Klitschko brothers are there every summer for several weeks and a lotta other celebrities. Roman Abramovich and Demi Moore are there every year as well.

Sounds even more gay than a 'health spa'

Most of the times, the weight stack is on your right side. I understand the user-friendliness of this, but I recognize that imbalanced feeling with a serious load, esp when a machine becomes old. There's a good reason why plate loaded machines are popular, not only by their owners.

None of my gyms have plate loaded unfortunately. Doesn't seem to be a hit in Stockholm. Most gyms here have LifeFitness in my experience.

My gym has the first two back machines he uses, the pulldown machine is very good...great feel, his the lats at a good angle.

The other one is ok not great.  They have a bicep machine that is brutal...two sets and your biceps are on fire. They have a very good leg press as well. Overall they are quality machines IMO....They have a knack for really hitting the Target muscle

For my understanding, do you have a gym chain or are you a client?
HS is pretty expensive here in Europe, AFAIK because of the high import rates for steel.
Maybe PL stuff isn't popular in Sweden because they don't like bodybuilders in general? (I refer to the Tony Freeman & Martin Kjellstrom arrests)
Lifefitness is from the same company as HS. I love their cardio & pulley machines.

No, I just frequent three gyms right now.

Most gyms have very mixed clientel here. I bet they are intending all machines to be the easy choice that clients recognize and feel comfortable with. They want to give alternative to handling free weights. An old lady can't load the plate loaded machine.

Also normal machines are probably cheaper, easier to clean and to instruct newcomers with.

Joints hurt just watching him train...His elbow positioning during all exercises looked a lot like some of the people in my gym who never worked out in their life.

And that was training with the machine "empty" imagine putting some weight on it.

It felt good in my chest during my workout, but there was zero pain the next day.
