Charter Gym (look/lm code Gy) — old Accounts cell near Clobber (3,5).

            Equipment (x <thing> shows its level and commands):
              weight set      recline on weight, then use weight   trains muscle (IP)
              speed bag       stand, use speed                     trains fists
              rowing machine  sit on rowing, then use rowing       trains athletics
              climbing wall   climb up / use wall  (to the rafters) trains athletics
              hot tub         sit in tub / recline in tub          fatigue drains faster
            stand — get up off a machine (or out of the tub).

            use/rep <thing> — a paced set of 5 reps, one every ~2s. Each rep rolls
            your stat/skill vs the machine's difficulty:
              fail      "You grunt and strain..." — no gain
              good rep  [ You gained N IP ... ] [ Your raw <skill> is now X.XX! ] [ You earned N XP! ]
              too easy  "That seemed a bit easy..." — no gain; turn it up
            change <thing> to 1-5 — set difficulty ("Change it to what?" if blank).

            Fatigue builds with good reps ("Ooof... feeling the burn"). At the cap reps
            stop paying until it drains ("You finally feel all of the fatigue work its
            way out of you."). The hot tub speeds that up.
            An undiscovered skill reveals itself on its first good rep — only that one.

            work out / workout — old grind: spend hunger+stress, earn 2 IP.
            train <stat> — spend IP to raise muscle, sense, wits, or nerve (10 × stat).
            Coach teaches athletics, dodge, and teach (learn teach from coach at athletics raw ≥ 6).
            Practice dummy — attack dummy / kill dummy. Hits use-train fists/blades/clubs;
            regenerates. Ask coach about equipment, weights, wall, tub, fatigue.
