Gyms

Gyms are facilities in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas where the player can train to improve Carl Johnson's physical stats.

Description
Indoor gymnasiums are unlocked after receiving a phone call from Sweet after the mission Drive-Thru, introducing the player to gymnasiums. All gyms are open all day, every day. If, in a single day, the player loses 40% fat or gains 20% Stamina or Muscle, they will have to wait 12 hours before being allowed to workout again.

Locations
There are three major gyms located in San Andreas, each located in the state's three cities and are easily located on the map by red dumbbell icons in the legend. They include:

Equipment
Each gym is equipped with four pieces of exercise equipment:

Sparring and fighting styles
Each gym has a trainer with a different fighting style, but the player will only have access to them when they have amassed 35% Muscle. At each, walk into the marker and reply positively when the trainer asks if CJ wants to learn some new moves. The training takes a tutorial-type approach, with tips on-screen to tell the player how to execute the moves and when. Carl must defeat the trainer to learn the new moves. Each teaches the player a new Running Attack, Ground Attack, and Combo Attack.


 * The Ganton Gym features a Boxing trainer.
 * The Cobra Marital Arts Gym features a Kung Fu trainer.
 * The Below the Belt Gym features a Muay Thai trainer.

If the player forfeits a sparring match at any gym, they will lose all weapons they are carrying and will be unable to recover them. This is more likely to happen at the Cobra Marital Arts Gym, where the player simply has to step off the floor mat to end the match.

Learning all fighting styles is required to complete 100% Completiton

Glitch
There is a glitch that prevents the player from using any equipment, where the game notifies them that they have trained enough, even if they haven't exercised at all after a lengthy period of time. It may be caused by any of the following:

Madd Dogg's Mansion
The glitch occurs most commonly by saving at Madd Dogg's mansion. It is unknown what exactly triggers this glitch, but it can be attributed to the existence of gym equipment in the mansion, making the game treat it as a gym.

Quick Saving
The glitch has also been found to happen if saving in two different slots, in a very short time. For example: Slot one save time is 16:13, and slot number five is 16:18, then nine times out of ten, the glitch will occur.

New Year's Eve Glitch
It has been recently discovered that the glitch can also occur if CJ reaches his limit on December 31 (in-game time; the game actually tracks days and months of the year, but this is never used in actual gameplay). In this case, CJ will be unable to work out indefinitely.

The reason this occurs is because when CJ reaches his limit on a particular day, he is not allowed to work out until the next day. Since the game does not track years, there is no such day that exists after December 31, as the game's internal calendar rolls back to January 1 after December 31.

Theoretically, the probability of this glitch occurring when CJ reaches his limit is 0.3%.

Trivia

 * If viewed close-up using the zoom features of the camera or sniper rifle scope, players can see the logo of the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Company on the side of any gym's dumbbells. Indeed, both the weights at the bench and the dumbbells derive their textures from those intended for wooden boxes. This is actually a bug which was fixed in the 10th anniversary edition.
 * The player also has a fighting style before he unlocks any of the styles in the gyms. This style does a continuous punch and kick combo and there is no official name for it. The running and ground attack are the same as the default punching. After unlocking a fighting style in any gym, the player cannot retrieve it without the use of mods. The only way of keeping it is not learning any other style throughout the game. The attack is surprisingly strong, the kick is guaranteed to make the opponent fall over and can also destroy a lamppost or fence.
