[From "4 Reasons Why Lifting In Gyms Is A Bad Idea"]

For nearly two decades of my life, I would go to the gym[…]While I never had huge muscles, my body was athletic and toned[…]I want to claim that I went to the gym to be “healthy,” but my true intention was to be attractive to the opposite sex for the purpose of fornication. When I repented of my sins before God[…]I decided not to go to the gym anymore[…]
1. The music is filthy
The vehemently secular music that all gyms play is painful to my hymn-loving ears. I don’t want to hear songs about sex, seduction, getting rich, dancing all night in the club, driving expensive cars, and becoming a big boss. Thankfully, I can hardly understand the “English” being sung in most modern songs[…]the Satanically-engineered melody will find a way to worm its way into my brain[…]
I strive to listen to no secular music at all[…]because of how it corrupts my nous (spiritual eyes of the soul). One of the reasons I like shopping at Walmart is because they are one of the only supermarkets I know that don’t usually play music
2. The women are almost naked
There seems to be a competition among gym-going women to see who can display the most skin without technically being naked according to local ordinances. The arrival of “sports bras”[…]confirmed to me that the gym has become like an antechamber to the brothel bedroom
3. There are too many mirrors[…]
Since all gyms coat the walls in mirrors, my time in them exercised my pride as much as my body[…]
4. Desire to get bigger and bigger muscles for no practical reason[…]
Pride ignites within you to be even bigger and stronger[…]
solely to lift heavier things within the construct of the gym itself to make you think that your body, given to you by God, is an achievement of your own
