Locker room acoustics

Recently my gym renovated the locker rooms, something I’ve given little thought to until today. After enjoying a sauna this afternoon, I entered the first shower right next-door to rinse off, when I learned something new about the recent construction: in the first shower you can hear conversations in the sauna perfectly.

Now normally this isn’t anything I’d really consider interesting, had the two (apparently gay) men in the sauna decided not to talk about me after I left. It was more fruitful than the scale in the locker room. Apparently I have “juicy abs” “decent arms” and a “nice butt” but my chest and legs “could use a little work.”

I thought “this is great!” Where else could I get such an open, honest, unbiased opinion? I plan to adjust my workout routine accordingly – you know, increase the arms and legs a bit, and maybe come back at the same time in about a month in hopes for a check-in session to see how I’m doing.
