Just a quick poll do you train at a small meatlocker or at a franchise-type gym????? I personaly train at Ballys only because I work there and it's a free membership and because it's the best gym in my area. Also whats your gym like?? alot of old farts and computer-geek types or mainly meat-heads???

I train at 24hr. It's ALRIGHT. There are some big motherfuckers there, but right next to them is a 105lb 27yr old. But I don't have too many complaints, I get to sit in the hot tub and sauna right after my workout.

I train at AC fitness here. I used to train at a hardcore little gym but it closed down so I had to go corporate. At ac there are all types, huge fahkers, skinny ones, old ones, fat broads, hot broads... you name it.

I train at the company gym. It has the right equipment even though it is small. But the best thing is that it is free. And the people who work there MUST be certified!

Chain. I moved and had no choice. My old gym was a meatlocker, and I loved it. Just about everyone was a goon there. Here, I am not sure if it is a gym or a social club.
They are going to put in a juice(not my kind of juice) bar. I have considered commuting the 2 and a half hours everyday to the old gym.

I figured this, we work out to look mo betta in the opposite sex's eyes, so why work out around a bunch of meat heads? I work out at bally's. Not because of the hardcore weights, but because of the view. Leg day is the best, leg extension machine is right in front of step aerobics class. I actually got the schedule for the aerobics classes and time my workouts accordingly.

They look much better than you meat heads, sorry.

I work out at a Powerhouse Gym on LI. There you have you usual mix of the Meatheads, stringbeans, sluts, faggots, high school guys, and my favorite: High School girls. If you go at the right time there is a good group of juice heads to work out with.

I train in a HUGE converted warehouse.Tons of equipment and Huge Hardcore athletes with proven track records.No air-conditioning though.When it gets too hot to squat or deadlift,I go to Powerhouse

Spring,summer and fall are awesome because they open 3 huge garage doors,and you get tons of light in there.

AWESOME experience.Truly hardcore

I train at Nautilus. The equipment is pretty nice. Only complaint is the dumbells only go up to 100's. Not a big complaint now since i'm coming back from being injured but will be in the future. For some reason i'm looked at like the damn devil since people know i juice. But yet the guys in there talk about how they all "use to" or some of the newer ones don't have to the balls to but want to..people are such hypocrites.

I have nearly always trained in private concerns. When I started out 12 years ago I worked out in a council run gym (shit, no free weights, idiot trainers, etc).

I used to be a member of the Soho Athletic Club which is now a chain (and got worse for the fact).

I train at Gold's "social club" Gym. The GM is a little short goof who can't stand anybody that is stronger than him or is better built. which just happens to be me and my buds. Not hardcore at all and the women aren't much to look at. sure there are few but not many. I need a Hardcore gym. Dumbells only go to 100 because the GM has yet to work to them.

"faggots"?!? Do you also have "niggers"?

I'm one of the most accomplished bodybuilders on this board, and I am a "faggot" and would doubtless be one of the biggest guys in your gym, one of the "juice heads" you seem to like having there.
