If the walls are clean and pristine, covered by only mirrors/posters and with no marks in sight then good chance that you are better off turning around and finding another gym. Walls are a great, great training tool, Walls should be utilised, they are so much more then a structure that holds up the ceiling. Your training should be encouraging you to use it, to mess it up, not to keep off it and keep it clean.
Walls can be used for wall sits, wall walks, wall balls, med ball drills, hand stand push-ups, shoulder scapular drills, running drills, stretching etc. Walls are an integral part of your fitness regime. Walls should be encouraged to use.
