Jon Close 		  There simply isn't enough light in the gym for the exposure combination ISO 800, f/8 and 1/90. You'll have to open the aperture, set slower shutter speed, and/or higher ISO.

The last photo isn't too bad. It shows there are windows in the gym letting in a bit of sunshine. Where the other photos taken at night with just the lights of the gym?
