    Ty!! I just got a membership 10mins ago and had the fastest tour of the gym ever. It’s been YEARS since I’ve workout and couldn’t remember how to use the machine’s. After I left I felt a little embarrassed to go back without being told by the staff how to actually use the machines. I didn’t really want to ask either. So I figured I would just go in use the cardio machine and watch how others use the machine. But felt I would never actually get a good workout and probably still would feel shy. But This video has gave me complete confidence to go in and get motivated 💪🏼. TY TY TY. Exactly how I remember using them

    I can't thank you enough for this video as the people at P.F. say they cannot show me how to use the machines because "it opens them up to liability". They say just scan the QR code on the machines however that doesn't tell you actually HOW to use the machine as in adjusting it to your height, how to keep your body aligned, which parts of your body to keep in contact with the machines, etc. In other words: how to use the machines.

    • @BeFitnomenal
      @BeFitnomenal  2 місяці тому +1

      I believe you are talking about the small incremental weight on top of the machine. That little dial is usually an extra 5lbs. A lot of people don’t notice it but you can take it off if you don’t want it there

    I see the machines are different at different locations. The last one, at the PF I go to it look totally different. Same concept.

    Reading all these comments, I estimate there are 3 to 4 people in the gym who actually feel confident that they know what to do. The rest of us are like erm 👀. I feel so much community right now.

      Same, I just stayed about 20 minutes doing the treadmill and arm row thing because I had no idea how to use the machines! I'm going to try and use a couple tomorrow.

    I just walked out of the gym because I couldn’t get the machines to move - I adjusted the weight but they wouldn’t move. I don’t know what I was doing wrong
