If it appears that way then I apologise.
I try my best not to be distracted, like checking phone during breaks. Pre-covid my gym had TV shows on, usually Discovery. Now that's gone and they replaced it with gym commercials that always show women from the back in tight leggings. Maybe I should keep my eyes closed and count to 60.
Loud music at the gym can also be a distraction although it's usually on okay'ish level. I agree with OP that rock music could be a bother. I have some active music as well, and I do like it at times, but it's not the same as doing yoga and listening to an ambience or nature sounds.
Too many people is not good for my calmness, but that's the introvert in me.
I take this topic seriously, when I'm at the gym I don't feel the same as when I'm in yoga class or meditate. Then it's a calm environment and I can feel tranquil. But the gym is all action, it's in the active music and the people. But yeah it's a good place to work on the body and all muscles.
