They also don't believe in masks or the shutdown.  They've been sued for defying the shutdown.  They have almost $500,000 in a GFM account for their legal fees. 

There's a lot more to this story than just a free gym membership.  This isn't your "typical" gym.  This is a muscle man gym.  They're "patriots."  It wouldn't be any place I would patronize.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that it would be safe to exercise there, I'm not.

My question is, just how  do they plan on verifying that someone isn't vaccinated?

Because you just know that some people will take advantage of that loophole, regardless if they are vaccinated or not.

Perhaps they also believe that most people are honest and value integrity and for those who take advantage, that's on them and karma stinks.

First of all, they can't verify.  They know that.  They know they will be giving away free memberships.  However, a membership is generally a yearly fee that gyms charge, it is not the monthly fee.  So it is a sales gimmick to run a promotion and make a statement at the same time.  Gyms often waive their membership fee as a promotion.

Again; morons.  Non-masking, non-vaccinating morons.

I don't see how name calling is warranted.

Those people aren't here, though. No one here is an avowed anti-masker or an anti-vaxxer. I have heard no one lay claim to those terms in this forum.

It's definitely warranted. And it isn't really name calling when it is an accurate description.

• @Anonymous032819  After the 1st shot the arm hurts and probably one would not be able to do gym workouts....no mark on our arm after the first shot.  After the 2nd shot arm will again hurt and at that time may leave a mark especially if one had the Moderna vaccine,  My 2nd shot is in a couple weeks.  I'll never forget seeing a body builder with huge muscles walk back into the pharmacy to cry to the pharmacist "my arm hurts," and that was for a flu shot. He was so babyish it didn't match the great big muscles he was carrying around ..which is why I remembered it. So, not easy to lie about plus gym owners know their members pretty much.

Simple solution to that. Just don't go to the gym when your arm is sore. Problem solved.
