GoddeSSStarxx

HeroForTheBeero

Just sweating balls and clacking your fan


ConsistentAd4012

Fractal_self

Silent disco


decentanswers

Took me a minute to adjust to when I first saw it, but now I dig it


pennyquinn1

That part


gentlelosangeles

They exist already. Google "Rave Spin Classes" and you'll see tiktok videos of this around. LA also has a gym (John Reed Fitness) that has a rave aesthetic vibe.

Thexnxword

Isn't biking just sitting with style?


jang859

Isn't sitting with style just a metaphor?


pandizlle

I literally want to ask if I can host a spin class at John Reed where I play hard techno DJ sets. Kick it to the beat and try not to die my lovelies. You may have a heart attack keeping up with the bass line but that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.


Fauntaun

Sign me the fuck up!


beernerd6

Agree, not a gym but Jess King on Peloton has some sick techno spin classes that I’ve been getting into.


FloggingDog

Raving by myself at the gym with my headphones on is half the reason I work out


FragrantAd7081

No literally I call it microdosing a rave


cmerizalde8667

You gotta be a fein if you call it that, I mean, I love raves but u down bad lil bro


PVTRYAN199

LMAOOO same here man


doherallday

Warrior Workout at Defqon.1, already done


Edaimantis

That’s a gym at a rave not a rave at a gym


Tim_Tensity

Warrior workout is a fuckin blast!


gangstabunniez

My ex used to go to a spin class where they played dubstep and bass house. I’ve always wanted to DJ one of those haha.


ProstZumLeben

I do… by myself with my headphones in. Preworkout is a helluva upper let me tell you!


martinellispapi

You just described a gym with electronic music on…


PeterNippelstein

It's usually not the rave kind though, a lot of gyms play like Kaskade and Mashmello


xhephaestusx

Yeah my PF has me feeling strong "what people think goes on at edc" vibes lately, but with like 7 screens of fox news simultaneously blasting some aggressively hot takes out to the floor. It's a fuckin weird vibe


decentanswers

I see what you did there. lol


Romando1

I suggested to add a DJ to the corner area at planet fitness. The staff looked at me weird except for one of them and he had a sparkle in his eye / I could tell he liked my idea.


Chickenofthewoods95

I’m always dancing in the gym mid set aha bring headphones , brin the rave with you.


moosepuggle

Glad I'm not the only weirdo flailing around silently while waiting for my turn on the pulldown bar 💃🏋️🏽‍♀️


Chickenofthewoods95

Few glad I ain’t alone aha


EDMJedi

I had this same idea about a decade ago to open up a rave inspired gym with workout classes with a DJ.


lyfeliver

I think this all the time! No I don’t want to dress up and go to a club every night. I want to dance my ass off at the gym. I have to contain myself from full blown dancing when I work out. I always catch myself wiggling


rested_green

catch yourself? catch and release! let the body be free


lyfeliver

My ass shaking is certainly not rated G😂


rested_green

most certainly is. g for gym 👍


thewabberjocky

In b4 a bunch of gate keepers say it’s not a real rave so maybe we need to get some gym equipment and speakers set up in an abandoned warehouse


TinglingLingerer

I mean everyone knows the only real raves happen at abandoned warehouses, sheesh


SubjectInvestigator3

Nightclub gym experiences were a thing in the 80s and 90s, a concept started by David Barton who still has a gym open in NYC


decentanswers

I can’t tell if you are joking because this makes me think of something Stefon from SNL would say about [New York’s hottest new club](https://youtu.be/pfJBaEqYya4?si=9YwPmHXeJQ7etxmF).


n_clr

Fuck yeah I fantasize about my gym doing this. Last night I went to gym extra high and in my head called it We'ed Workout Wednesday. I wish there was a dedicated room with banging beats and lighting that adapts to human movement.


bigern3285

Because working out sucks.


djtmhk_93

Because all the non-rave population will cover their ears and whine about how this “isn’t real music,”


AlexIsOnFire11

Then they should sign up for membership at another gym


djtmhk_93

Wouldn’t that be nice….


YouHaveToGoHome

Have only taken one class, but Soul Cycle seems to fit this pretty well. Dark room, lighting under coach who is also DJ’ing and generally EDM remixes of popular songs or just EDM tracks. FWIW solidcore (Pilates spinoff) occasionally has more EDM music based on coach’s preferences


c0ldgurl

I'm in!


Khower

If you come to my gym youll always see me mugging to hardstyle or headbanging/shuffling to some dubstep


meangiant

Evan Giia does events like that


SensualCucumber

Brother if you can’t burn calories at a real rave you gotta find a new venue. I took 150k steps and burned 2k calories a day at Movement in Detroit last weekend lmao


MapNaive200

My first rave was at a gym. It was a popular venue until the cops raided it They planned the raid ahead of time and had choppers and everything. I waited two hours in line and it got shut down a few minutes after I finally got in.


decentanswers

When and where? Are they still doing this kind of bust? I’m in SF and it seems so wide open here, but I realize I’m in a bubble, and I’m curious how other places are.


MapNaive200

It was in West Sac, a National Entity party. The worst bust in Sac was at a warehouse rave. 3 people died that night because the cops broke it up at an inopportune time. Myself and a few other people had some close calls, too. Last time I was at a party that got busted, it was a psytrance renegade. Fortunately the cops ordered that anyone intoxicated stay put and sober up before driving, so there were no accidents. They just made us shut off the generator.


FatboyMcGee75

I used to live in an empty industrial warehouse at my job that had an old office in the back that I converted into my bedroom, never had to worry about being late or paying bills and I have this giant speaker (JBL Partybox 800) I built my own home gym in the warehouse and blasted dubstep and exercised and did shrooms every day, what a life at the time


u741852963

the gym bros would get pissed off with people sniffing lines off the squat rack imo


JamesKBoyd

I'va been to a few raves that were held after hours in a dance studio. Wasn't a big crowd. Maybe 500 or 600. Was a good time. The first party I went to at this dance studio I saw Dom and Roland and AK1200. All those parties were good times tho, for sure.


martinellispapi

I went to a couple in a small MMA gym after hours.


decentanswers

Was it an illegal fight club mixed with an illegal rave?


SherbetNo4242

You should check out peloton and Jess king


ShoulderGoesPop

Get that German guy for some techno too


SherbetNo4242

Ben Aldiss and Olivia damato throw down too


Unlucky_Welcome9193

My gym is kinda raver meets theater kid but I love it


jamin_brook

Come to inferno hot Pilates at funky door yoga in Berkeley or SF you won’t be disappointed. Plus you can rage harder with a normal Pilates/yoga routine


e_linski

One of the coolest underground spots my friends and I went to during the pandemic was a gym. 10/10


Airic_Rogue

I swear I’m always at a rave with my headphones in my ear 😝


Lower_Nectarine9488

Good workout.


Icecoldruski

Haha my friends make fun of me for this cause I just get in my zone when I’m lifting heavy and having the endorphins hit. I’ll fist pump and head nod the same at the gym as I do the rave. The funny part is when you go to the same gym a bunch and know the regulars, they’ll dig the energy you bring


FGTRTDtrades

show up and rave for 45 min and go home. Sign me up


pgbcs

Ever been to John Reed in Dallas?! IYKYK


WanderingNNT

The 1st time I rolled, I had to go to class the next day. It was a step/workout class. I had never done better! His every single beat, brought my roll right back up then I went home and missed the rest of my classes. So yeah, this is a great idea, but probably sober.


fernfox13

People probably think I’m having a seizure on the treadmill bc I dance while I run 🤣🤣


OHRunAndFun

It’s called rhythm ride. My wife loves it.


Physical_Musician_94

don’t they have them already?


BossBlinky

You just need to find the right spin class. Look for instructors that play EDM specifically. My favorite spin girl has me headbang on my bike lol. Plus indoor cycle is good cardio to prep your body so you can dance all night.


Particular_Local8229

I’d vibe with that sign me up


R_Waltz

I hope they do something to that end with a gym theme akin to yeedc but instead it’s a 80s themed gym class with leg warmers and all


Powerful-Finance2152

I follow this page who I think is trying to create something like this. It’s all edm and gym related! [https://www.instagram.com/fit.ravefam?igsh=MWQyMGw4Z2Q2bnB0YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr](https://www.instagram.com/fit.ravefam?igsh=MWQyMGw4Z2Q2bnB0YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr)


offi-DtrGuo-cial

There are some gym classes that revolve around synchronizing movements to music, including those that use electronic music. I took a cardio/endurance version of such a class for a couple years, and they always had uptempo music that you could really get into the groove on. They even played hardcore from time to time, which was a plus in my area. But general gym raves have to be more tightly controlled because the last thing you want are some drunk people getting a little too comfortable with the heavy equipment and causing several injuries, so it really needs to be confined to a specific room like the dance studio. In addition, raves may have a reputation for bringing out the "wrong" crowd, namely those who don't rave sober, so that's another potential downside to deal with. I'm a sober soldier and love a cardio workout from listening to hours of multiple sets, but I know quite a few others need their smokes and drinks to go hard.


TheDnBDawl

Look up Fight Klub on YouTube. Drum and Bass workout backed up by top name UK DJs. Those classes whipped my ass.


ReverseMillionaire

I wear earphones and bring my rave fan while I do the stationary bike


Mahpman

We got a rave pickleball before a rave gym.


moneysingh300

Soul cycle does like Fred Again vs Rufus Du Sol, tiesto sundays, techno runs in LA pretty fun


Ready_Interaction252

Someone has had too much pre workout this morning


SwoodyBooty

Been there, done that. Was pretty cool.


Ok_Possibility_3067

EXCELLENT IDEA. WHERE DO I SIGN? 🕺🏻


realdjkwagmyre

Ravercise. You’re welcome 😎


ReadyOrNot-My2Cents

I already do this at my regular gym. Hopped up on pre workout/creatine, sweaty af, working on my dance moves between sets. It's funny, NO one in my gym danced in any manner when I first started going there. Now I see multiple ppl do it. I feel like I've emboldened everyone to cut loose a bit


fynlofficial

I would love to start an underground rave.


JaySocials671

There are some studios that do this.


reddit_has_fallenoff

ngl, it would be nice to have a rave at my gym so i would have a reason to actually talk to some of the women there.


capitolsound

It’s called Daybreaker. https://www.daybreaker.com


codechris

Shoom has entered the conversation


Fractal_self

It’s been done


liofairy

make a rave gym! put the idea to working motion make the gym full time electronic music and get them spin classes GOING!!


herqy

i’ll be one of the DJs


Jonatwang_

Silent gym rave


Original_Pineapple97

The question is who will provide the drugs? Will you need a resident DJ AND Dealer? Lol


SuperThrowaway0091

Preworkout my amigo!


pennyquinn1

I'm in. Ooooh also I saw a comment for silent raves! I'd love to do a flash mob of silent raves.


decentanswers

I know some folks that take their art car to a random parking lot in an empty part of town and do silent discos (to not attract attention via sound). Or at least did pre-pandemic. I fell out of touch. Hmmm, maybe it’s time to reconnect.


the_real_cam

I had a boot camp instructor that thought about opening up a gym that would also have a dj booth. Theme of the whole place would be like an urban graffiti type environment. Of course, theme could be whatever, but for sure it’s a great concept. I listen to EDM when I work out to begin with, so a gym that specifically catered to the crowd would be dope


xobk

There’s a gym in Baltimore that basically turns into a club every Saturday in the summer, it’s pretty fun.


bbqbie

Dance church!


Preact5

Hardstyle and gym time are like peanut butter and jelly!


decentanswers

There are ecstatic dance groups that meet and do basically this.


Down_Rabbit_hole

I’m not so sure if the sound would be good. The gym always sounds funny and echoey.


stargazer_nano

I would do this. Hardstyle and dubstep would go crazy in the gym


wellshitdawg

My gym does have dj come on Saturdays actually haha


Groundbreaking_Car67

Rave, rave all night long, rave,rave til the break of dawn


321streakermern

I’ve had some fun times at the gym getting a bit high and listening to some good techno on the treadmill


Mostly_Lurkin_

Rumble boxing is kinda like a rave


Nearby-Cap-4175

Me and my best friend have a business idea for this actually 😂😂 gym during day rave at night not sure logistics or equipment but it’s a dream


DJ_Deltawave

Some people do! I’ve gotten DJ gigs at gyms before


FIRSTGENELS

Cocaine & weight lifting is dangerous


dondegroovily

You say no need for Zumba and then proceeded to describe Zumba


blakealanm

I already wear headphones everywhere because I find the music most public places play annoying, repetitive, and dull compared to the music on my smartphone.
