‘Weird’: Club asks its gym members to get underwear stamped, shave legs if wearing shorts

A notice, issued by a reputed club in Chandigarh is making rounds on social media for wanting underwear stamped and smell test for gym members, among many other such weird rules.

Journalist Arshdeep Sandhu shared the picture of the notice on Twitter and wrote, “The Lake Club Chandigarh notice. Read every single line. ‘Undergarment approval stamping’ and ‘permitted bad words’ Hilarious. Also ‘shave your legs’ if you plan to wear shorts.”

The few pointers in the notice that must be religiously followed by the members are what we can call a “bizarre” set of rules.

In fact, the pointers mention that gym members wearing shorts should have their “legs shaved” or else defaulters will be depilated at sight. It read, “Gym users wearing shorts must shave their legs to preserve the decorum and to avoid unnecessary attention. Defaulters will be depilated at sight.”

It further read, “Only approved undergarments” will be allowed at the gym. If this was not enough, there is also a point that says that the usage of foul language is not allowed, “only permitted bad words” is to be used at the sports complex.”

* How does a member fail the "smell test"?
* Who is incharge of smelling members ?
* Can members wax instead of shave ?
* "Only approved undergarment are to be worn ! And who will check the brand of the underwear ?"
* what if the member abuses in another language ? 💪
