[gymjunkie09]

i was forced outta work( my own business due to glaucome)
I have two gyms where i train members and get free admission, but when time is a faxtor I go nextdoor to my Deceased parents

house i was lucky to find a gym that went out of business so i bought almost everything, I love my Squat rack.

Dumbell rack goes up to 200lbs and it's all york.

Nice! I feel sorry for the people you train lol, you must turn people into beasts though

Man that's harsh, I take it your eyes are ok now?

My business went under simply cos the work dried up after the 2008 crash

I used to have a gym in my garage when I lived in the country, had a bench, squat rack, lat pulldown machine with enough weight for 100kg (220lbs), a 135lbs punchbag AND sparring area/ring (only had ropes along one side, the other 3 were concrete walls! Try bouncing off them!!)

nice, so its almost like pimping her out? lmao

Lol kinda, she does the work I just "supervise" the money and make sure the taxes etc are paid correctly etc!

I used to train people in boxing and martial arts, pretty much the same dedication rate, worst thing is when you find someone with loads of potential who doesn't have the desire to realise it fully. I don't know where you get the energy to keep motivating people who don't seem to care, I used to get really passionate about it put in a lot of time and effort helping my students to see them quit or just not bother.

I agree Brother, I trained this guy many yrs ago 6' 3" walked in wet at a 139 lbs ,put him on a program in little over a yr he put on close to 50 lbs of muscle ,he was 19 all natural ,I never saw anything like it! His bench went up from 75lbs to 425, I told him he had potentual to be one of the best bench presser's to come outta GA.WE went to a bench meet I begged him to enter ,even offered to pay the fee ,he was imitimated looking at some of those contestants, big body ,Skinny legs, his bench at that time was 475, after all was said and done all he did was piss and moan because he didn't enter, it was no contest!
THen he met a girl and 6 months later that was that!
What could have been should have been ,but wasn't!

Radar I don't know how you put up with stuff like that. It just gets me down when you get someone with the potential to outshine their teacher who just doesn't take the sport seriously. I gotta take my hat off to you if you're still doing it. I won't train anyone in martial arts anymore unless they chop off their right hand first to prove their dedication.

Ok that's an exaggeration but you get the picture!

We had a eternally pissed off phllpn/korean intructor at coronado, he put fear in us. We were terrified to not give him our all, I think my shins were bruised for a year. He would charge his students a penalty (his side job) when they werent giving their all...they either payed up or hed kick them out.

Good luck to you bader, I'm excited to see you make another run for it this year. You were an awesome 'opponent' last year (I use that term loosely because we were all helpful with each other), I'm pullin for you

Thanks p_sizz! Miss seeing you around chica. This year has been tougher and not as fruitful so far as you can see by the pics. But I'm working hard.
