comon!! million dollar idea right here, who's with me

You should delete anon. Not a bad idea. Might get scalped. Kudos if original, I’ve been in a fog lately nice to see some people are able to think.

I'll invest 100 shekels good sir

>>23581989
I was kinda being satirical. I'm waiting for someone to coming with hard cold facts about how this wont work

>>23582181
come in

>>23582181
Ackchyually your idea is false, because of these simple little facts. First of all it would be considered unethical to extract energy from living human beings. Second of all you're a giant faggot.

>>23582181
Gyms use more electricity than they produce? A/C, lights, etc. Doubt they would produce enough electricity to even cover the gym itself.

don't think youd make enough money from the electricity to pay for the maintenance of the machines and up front cost

>>23582451
They already do this in some night clubs in Europe. The floor turns the kinetic energy created by dancing into power. Not sure it generates enough to sell back to the electric company but it reduces the electric bill.

Do you not understand the most valuable aspects of a brainstorming session? Do you not understand 4chan? Of course your idea, as presented , seems infeasible. Some modifications, and it could be profitable. Wonder if the anon that has the profitable idea will be as naive and share it with you. Does this board even conduct actual 'business' in any fashion, at all? Have you all just watched too many movies?

>>23581887
based. your like tesla and edison combined into one.

Reduce costs so the gym subscription can be lower and be alot most price competitive?

>>23583255
You can do it to reduce costs but I doubt you can price gauge Planet Fitness. They make money by being so cheap people are okay keeping their membership despite never going to the gym. Most gyms operate this way. If every paying member used the gym regularly, maintenance of the equipment would out pace revenue.

>>23582487
That's why you only allow sick cunts to join who will return you a profit

some gyms actually already do this. look forward to spending money on special electric generating treadmills/bikes and then losing money. you need a massive amount of human kinetic energy to output a significant amount of electrical energy. you might as well buy solar panels.

>>23582487
You give people discounts on their gym fee based on the amount of energy they produce?

Hello sirs, may you kindly show me how to invest my ruppees into your new gymcoin ico?

>>23581887
gyms have no future in the new normal

>>23581887
Isn't that a black mirror episode?

it already exists, did you even try Google? unfortunately it is currently a gimmick because
a) >>23582487
b) the equipment is much more expensive to buy than normal gym equipment.
>>23583429
kek this could be the winning play though

/fit/izen here.

Machines are absolute shit in building muscle. Free weights will always be the way to go and the most optimal. Maybe you’d make money off the s o y s but any one thats actually seriously about fitness avoids machines

>inb4 WHATTTTT ABOUTTTTT LEGGGGG PRESSSS AND THE PEC DECCC

Pec deck maybe but LOL at the leg press

>>23585158
Yeah but the purpose of a machine is to be there for people that dont have any clue of what they re doing, you can really fuck yourself if you dont know on how to use a proper form during free weights exercises.

basically, fuck off you elitist gym rat

>>23585158
You are fucking retarded if you think there is anything magical about using a free weight vs a machine. The overload principle applies to muscle regardless of whether you're on a machine or a free weight and you are an empty-headed memester to claim otherwise.

>>23581970
>>23581887
What you are describing is literally the plot of a black mirror episode where the pigmented protagonist slaves away in the gym daily to produce electricity so his commune block leader can sell it on the decentralized market.

Go back for the love of God

>>23585525
It's natural movements, hardly any thought or training required to do a normal squat or bench press. Machines are just for looks because they do 80% of the work for you. Basically for women who need good props in their photos so they can wear cute, yoga pants and sports bras.

>>23585802
Yeah I think youre right. This probably why body builders never get injuries while squatting double their bodyweight without warming up or deadlifting with a cat back.

>>23581887
50 W/h per human is nothing
and that is an overestimation

>>23585577
tfw I want to become a /fit/izen but all I see is this confusing stuff about technicalities that I don't understand so I scare to go there and lurk because I won't know where to start

>>23585577
>from /fit/
>empty-headed memester
wow color me surprised

>>23585577
>My chest press machine workout is just as valuable as free weight benching !
Take a load of this dyel

>>23586067

The fit sticky is literally all you need, good enough for 99% of people. Fitness is not some mystical subject, the principles are well understood. The confusing shit is either snake oil or only for advanced athletes.

As for OPs idea you should watch the video where a pro cyclist tries to power a toaster. The idea that a bunch of soccer moms and normies (i.e. the people who sit on the cardio equipment at the gym for a long time) would generate enough power at the gym to cover air con, lights, tvs, music, hot water etc... at the gym is laughable. Much better off putting solar on the roof or, even better just saying that your equipment is hooked up to the grid for the gimmick marketing.

>>23581887
Why don’t they just make a onahole that could generate electricity? Who needs solar when you can just jerk off. In the future it will be profitable enough to pay people tiny bits of currency to jerk off.

>>23585577
Machines will still help build muscle but free weights are better because your muscles have to work in stabilizing the weights while you're lifting. Machines are already steadying the weight so you're merely pushing against the weight. But obviously both work so don't take too much heed of what that guy said. Machines might be better when you're starting out but if you can lift heavy free weights with proper form then go for it.

This is my take on the situation anyway. I am no expert on weight lifting.

>>23582181
I don't think these machines even exist
so there's your profit opportunity, buildings these useless contraptions and let the onions eco-friendly crowd buy them. They love nonsensical shit that isn't actually eco-friendly.

there was a presentation about how oil/petrochemical can never be replaced where he calculated a human can do 80W x 8 hrs a day = .64 kwh per day
which is laughably bad, I use more than that just running a fan
oil rules everything
