Can someone explain how signups are bad or prevent you from getting your workout? Doesn't a total free for all erupt if, for example, two or more people are waiting for a treadmill, perhaps unbeknownst to each other? Without a signup, who wins? My gym is signup only and it is fair and reasonable and generally avoids confrontation. I go to the gym to work out, not to do some sick power play or to wait around until someone decides to let me workout. I show up, I sign up, the machine I sign up for is mine for the time I am signed up on it, end of story, no argument. I will not let you finish up "just five minutes" if it cuts into my time, and I am not rude for saying "I signed up. NOW." A person who refuses to follow signup rules and asks me to forfeit my time is rude.
