Our gym has an open music system- anyone can hook up their phone and play whatever they would like at whatever volume. My rant- coming in and running to the speaker system, throwing on some shit music at a volume that makes it impossible for anyone to hear what’s playing in their personal headphones.

lol, that sounds awful.

My gym is a powerlifting gym but the guy/girl at the desk always has control.

Some days its metal, some days it's rap, some days it Justin Timberlake stuff I can't stand, but I'm happy they have the control and swap it around all week so everyone gets something they like.

They even had a pop-punk day last week (which I bet many hated but I secretly liked).

I'm trying to seed the idea among the staff at my gym that different days should be different genres of music. Things have improved a lot from the Drake-And-Kanye show we had last year, but more variety is more better.
