Gyms

Wow 96 beanage a month thats a lot! I hope you get a shake bar at least included. My favourite gym was out in BC called the "Garage" 24 coinage a month, shake bar, grill...and when it was nice outside they open up the bay doors so you can look at the pretty scenery! Plus they had those 250lb DB's for all those serious steves.

i only pay 10 quid a month, its got everything u need. no mupets,posers or dossers in there either. the 1 and only problem is the cable crossover machine. 1 of the cables is always broke. its always getting fixed 2 like but its the same side all the time.

cant really complain cause of the cheap the monthly fee is!

My last gym was hardcore. $20 a month and the owner didn't care how you paid. Heavy metal blasting on the stereo. Serious lifters.

Now that we moved I'm stuck with Gold's Gym. There is literally nothing else around for a good distance. Its like you describe. The parking lot will be jammed but there is no one in the weights area. But the 400 treadmills they have will all be full. I can't even find anyone who I trust to spot me.

slayer if you don't pay $300 to $400 up front they will make you pay it's all about the money.

They had a special since they just opened. I had to pay $100 up front and now $39 a month. but after one year it goes up to something like $50 I think.

I've never seen so many treadmills, stairsteppers, and bikes in my life. Truly impressive

I'm with you bro. I hate those big commercial gyms thats are virtually a ymca. I workout in a small (like 900 sqr ft) gym. Its all new equipment and a 24/hr facility so theres never really a 5oclock rush or anything. They've got everything I need as far as free weights, cables, and machines. My only bitch: They use rubberized dumbells. I dont mind metalflake in my mouth from incline DB press . They also only go up to 100lbs, which sucks. I'm about to buy 110lbers myself and leave them there heh.

All for $25 a month. Whos yer daddy?

could always save up and get that environment at the house.

Exactly.

A squat rack, bench, and a thousand pounds of olympic plates is all I need to start.

The garage is perfect... or the basement if your ceiling is high enough.

there is a gym and racquetball club in my building that is for the people that live here. believe it or not the gym is actually pretty good and its always empty.

Though I do got a membership at one of those plush big places with clean showers & toilets. I pay $45 for the 2 of us. It is convenient as it is down the street from work and I go on my lunches. Plus I like some dumbell work and those fuckers are expensive. Even when u can find a deal u pay more in shipping. I am waiting for the next gym in town to close up so I can get theirs.

Though I got the dungeon in my basement I use it for my "extra" work, if I don't think I had a great workout or if I am concentrating on week points.

I have my Rottweiler hand me my plates....lol.

My town has 4 Gold's gyms. Of the 2 I go to, one is a social after work chat club where people actually look at you weird if you have muscles and the other one is near the college so its just frat boys doin curls.

I seriously need to invest in an Ipod one of these days.
