I'm not even kidding, myself and the few others who actually lift at the gym (Planet Fitness is unfortunately the only gym in my area that actually has fitness equipment) have been told to be quite before. None of us were being particularly loud. I always hated that "no judgement zone" bullshit. Idon't need to cater to your low self esteem, bud. How about you get off the couch and actually work out and then maybe you'll feel better about yourself?
