A joke about the best machine at the gym is:
 
Q: What’s the best machine to impress women at the gym?
A: The ATM.
 
The joke might have originated with late night television comedian Jay Leno. “The best machine in the gym for working out in order to impress women is the ATM machine. by Jay Leno” was cited in print in 1999.

The best machine at a gym you can use to impress the ladies, is the ATM just outside planet fitness.

An old guy (not able to get in the best of shape from tennis) started working out in the gym when he spotted a sweet young thing.
 
He asked the trainer who’s nearby: “What machine in here should I use to make this body look attractive to someone like that young lady over there?”
 
The trainer looked him up & down & said: “I’d try the ATM in the lobby.”

Pat, who they all knew was a regular gym user, added: “There was an occasion I asked the trainer which was the best machine to use to impress the gorgeous hot blonde who’d just come into the gym. Casting me a cursory glance at me, he suggested I try the ATM in the wall outside.”
