You know you go to a namby pamby gym when you walk in after not lifting for over 6 months and are bigger than most of the guys lifting. When people that "ACTUALLY" squat do half reps and use padding. When you haven't seen one guy besides yourself do cleans or deads of any kind in over a month. No chalk allowed. Britney spears and N'sync is your typical loudspeaker crap. When the personal trainers are all pretty boys who use anemic man weights and you're bigger than they are adn lift more weight than they do after not lifting for 6+ months.
You know your gym has hope when you see that corner solely devoted to powerlifting and only the powerlifters use that area. Girly men need not apply. When that area has a competition bench, and squat rack. When that area has a box full of chains and one of those chains looks like it came off a naval battleship. When you see a pair of 175lbs dumbells and a pair of 200lbs dumbells. When you see another box full of bands. That area has a glute ham raise machine. You know your gym has hope when you see this.

... when there is a note on the wall in the locker room that says: "please dispose your needles in the plastic container, not in the waste basket"
Ive just joined a hardcore gym after leaving my namby pamby University gym which only had dumbells up to 30 kg (which broke so they took them away) leaving the heavyest dumbell being, wait for it....... 22.5 kg . What a joke.
My new gym is rough as hell, dirty, cold (which means its gona be real hot in the summer!), but has huge dumbells (hard to work out how heavy they are because all the numbers have been rubbed off over the years) and all the guys lifting there are fucking massive, so you know its hardcore!
Anyway back to the thread, You know you go to a hardcore gym when....... you have to wipe your feet on the way OUT.

Instead of puke buckets there is a 55 gallon drum of sawdust. You hurl, take a scoop and throw it on top of it. NEXT SET BITCH!
Instead of water fountains, they have a hose pipe and faucet.
The showers, wait a minute...showers? Showers are for pussies! Get your ass back in the squat rack!
The add on weights are cement blocks.
