Only exception would for me would be if I could only go twice a week and do full body. I'd really hate that though.90 minutes seems an absurdly long time to me but to each their own.
my other big pet peeve: people who watch tiktok/listen to music without headphones!
i can guarantee that no one wants to listen to my esoteric metal/ high tempo trance/house music playlists, so why should i be forced to listen to all of the rubbish that others put on!
If someone is asking - and you actually have the appropriate knowledge - I think it's fine. Otherwise unless someone is in imminent danger of harm, I'd leave them be.
I reckon i probably used to do just over an hour on my long sessions.
20 minute warm up (Treadmill/Boxing/Bike)
30 minute weights session
10 minute warm down
Im sure ive done 90 minutes plus on occassion but it would be rare.
45 minutes the norm too.
Yeah what a ridiculous outdated concept...
The only place super setting has for me is if you are strapped for time. But 90% of the time in the gym making things faster for yourself is only making things slower for everyone else. I also dont think its a major priority for most people to get in and out of the gym in the fastest time possible
put this one on next timeWe all picked a song for the playlist this morning, my choice of Metallica - For whom the bell tolls didn’t go down too well ha ha
“Serious” gym goers. Not really sure what that even means. I went 6 (sometimes 7) days a week and took it very seriously. I enjoyed the gym I just didn’t wanna spend 90-120 minutes there when I could comfortably do my workout in around half that time.Maybe im wrong and more people are keen to get out ASAP but from my experience most of the serious gym goers I see regularly aren't that concerned with the clock and getting in and out in the quickest time. Still wouldn't advocate for super setting though unless it was empty because if more people are keen to get in and out then you are just holding them up more anyway.
Personally im anywhere from an hour to two hours every session and while I dont rush I definitely dont **** around and talk or waste time
Its not the length of time you are at the gym but rather the quality of the workout assuming you are also hitting around 10-20 sets per week for each muscle group, if hypertrophy is your goal.“Serious” gym goers.

No judgement on anyone that does, spend your time how you see fit.
Definitely its called junk volume and it is actually a contributing factor to the ability to recover from your workout.I'd speculate that there is also a fair bit of diminishing returns at play with resistance training the more and longer you train.
I like going and doing a lot but have shortened workouts a bit and looking at going less, prioritise quality over quantity going hard and more rest days.
In saying that just do what you like and enjoy even if it's possibly too much, whatever it is it's a million times better than sitting on the couch watching TV covered in Cheezel dust like 90% of the population.

Point was also more that super setting even if it’s quicker for you results in things taking longer for other people if you are taking multiple machines
Is it tiny? I tend to find unless you’re at absolutelt elite 5 star joints hotel gyms are the size of a broom cupboardAway for work this week so got to try and use the hotel gym. It's a typical one, mainly treadmills and bikes, some kettle bells and medicine balls, no boxing bags or anything of course so I can't do my usual workouts, I'll just try and get whatever I can in. Maybe I'll have some irritating stories to share!

In this scenario, you can always have a light workout or a deload week instead of trying to hit a hotel gym hard.Is it tiny? I tend to find unless you’re at absolutelt elite 5 star joints hotel gyms are the size of a broom cupboard
