Why is the aesthetic of gyms, even the good ones, always so lifeless? Always black and grey and white everywhere. I want fans blowing air in my face at 12 km/h and a simulation of running along a forest path in a magical fantasy world .... or at least some plants.

I think new ones tend to experiment and actually add plants, afaik, there’s one with plants in Kyiv.

If I would do crossfit I’d probably like seeing trees as I am catching my breath between sets, but with powerlifting it’s all about large weights and adrenaline hit. I’d need something that makes an adrenaline rush, and the feeling is that trees, nature can’t give it.
