I've seen some neat things like a gym that has a video loop pointed at the deadlift platforms and power racks, so people can finish their lift and then form check on the monitors they have.
My campus gym is pretty barebones and only the varsity athletes get to use the Olympic weightlifting equipment.

I wish my gym had a pool. But I am fixing that issue when I switch gyms next month0

a decent pec-dec/reverse fly machine. And one of those old school lat pushdown machines you sit in and place your elbows on the pads, best isolation ever.0
-
We have those really bad ergo-cable machines... I rather have regular plate loaded isolation machines.0
-
Medicine Balls or Swiss Balls or Kettlebells0
-
sauna or steam room0
-
pull up bar and dip bar.0

Why is the word equipment in quotes? As you looking for answers like dancer poles with strippers?0

Probie, WHY do you have to be the first one to go "there"? You are just like everyone says you are. All the time. Aren't you? Can you EVER not be a pervert?0 -

- a heavy bag and a speed bag. i have suggested it multiple times because there are multiple squash rooms so there's usually 1 or 2 that are never is use even when it's very crowded, so having one room designated with a heavy bag or 2 and some speed bags would be great.
- a few more heavier kettlebells. we just recently got a 45 pound one (YAY) but i'd also like to see 50, 55 and 60 pound KBs
- i would there to be rubber weights and platforms, but that's not where the bread and butter is of the gym. there's quite a few older people who work out in my gym and they even complain about the noise from people accidentally letting a weight fall0 -
A cardio rowing machine would be nice.0

Current gym has everything I could possibly want. Ok, it could have a campus board I suppose but I doubt any normal gyms would have that. And maybe some weighted staffs and swords?0

Assisted pull up machine...I know I can do lat pull downs, but I like the more realistic simulation of movement that the pull up machine offers. Even better if you can do triceps dips on it.0
-
Decline bench press.
Some type of bicep machine that you can do negatives on.
Does a steam room and hot tub count as equipment?0 -
More free weights....ours is machine heavy.0

Realistically:
Bumper plates
Less realistically:
Tennis court
Pool
Sauna/Hottub0
