My gym plays remixes of popular songs. Unfortunately the remix butchered anything good into garbage. Probably to avoid copyright nonsense

Idk anon the meaning of the song is pretty well known. There’s always meme articles about it. Anyway you can’t dwell, the past is the past

They have to cater toward the majority audience or at least play music they’ll find inoffensive.

In my experience, it's the people who are actually there to lift hard that dgaf about the music playing. The normies are the ones complaining to the front desk staff about the music.

>>74110586
Everything about commercial gyms is to dissuade you from working out, the die hard lifter who goes into the gym 6 days a week to use the equipment he paid for is a worst case scenario for a gym. Therefore little things like having 1 squat rack, 1 deadlift area and playing fucking awful pop music are designed to dissuade the die hard lifter from using the gym.

She will come back in a few years looking like her early 20s again. I can guarantee that. It's a formula: do some weird shit with your appearance (the awful blonde and bleached eyebrows, shocking thinness, change of voice, ugly boyfriend) to distract people from the subtle plastic surgery you're getting to de-age yourself behind the scenes.

My gym isn't too bad and plays a lot of 80s rock and boomer metal, but I keep my earbuds in at all times. I wish I could overpay for a shitty warehouse olympic gym with no A/C or full cages, but plays power metal at max volume all day. Too bad there isn't one of those around my suburban town.

Why the fuck do they play music at all? Everyone has their noise cancelling earbuds on or their sensory-overload stimulus isolating autism headphones. What gripes me is when the gym speaker music is blasting at 3am so that I can hear it over my nc earbuds when I'm the only one there.

I listen to mainly metal and aggressive hip hop but sometimes I like to listen to audiobooks. I told a girl I was fucking about it and it was like her brain shut down and she couldn't conprehend it. Obviously I don't listen to audiobooks on heavy deadlift sessions, but if I'm just doing volume shit and don't give a fuck about going balls to the wall then why not?

>>74110586
If I had my way I'd play Pink Floyd's The Final Cut and other depressing ballads at the gym. Sad songs give me the best workouts.

Only problem with this theory is that they play similar pop shit at stores, where they want you to spend as much time as possible so you can buy a bunch of shit you don't need. Though I suppose the remixed popslop at the gym is arguably worse than regular pop.
>>74110586
My theory is that corporations want to bombard us with certain frequencies that make us more docile and pliable. Repetitive music that promotes degeneracy.

Lmao, America is such a shithole.
Are there any gyms that don't play music in your country?

>>74110593
>>74111433
That's the wrong logic. They still have the option of playing no music. In fact, that would reduce costs by a modest amount as well: no sound system in the gym. Instead they opt to pollute the ears of all their customers so that a few get to listen to music they like, some must listen to music they are indifferent to, and the rest have to listen to crap they hate.
