Oh I dunno guys, I think we need more couches and big screen TVs. Also the atrium is a little small for my liking.

Why are there 5 places to do some form of lat pulldowns when space could be created for another rack?

Serious post time: The last time I talked to a Pottruck administrator regarding more squat racks and platforms, the response was "where are we going to put them?" It's pretty clear that PennRec cares very little about actually improving things, and even less about students' voices in the matter. So while I hope this petition helps the situation, I would encourage anyone who signed this petition to e-mail PennRec directly and also voice your discontent in person (either to staff or administrators) so that maybe they'll start paying attention.

I lift at Pottruck at least 5 times a week and there's almost always a long wait for the squat racks. As a personal trainer, I recognize the importance of heavy squatting movements in a balanced fitness routine and the last thing a gym wants is to discourage its members from doing those exercises by making them weight too long for a squat rack.

Let's keep the gym up to Ivy League caliber with the addition of more squat racks!

Because real men don't skip leg day.

Don't discriminate against leg day! All lifting days deserve equal treatment!

More deadlift platforms would be great too.
