So what does it take for a gym to make it to this list? Well...

• It should have more benches than elliptical walkers

• You don't have the option of "renting" towels at the front desk

• The owner is more concerned with keeping the machines oiled than the floor spotless

• Personal trainers in matching uniforms aren't part of the scenery

• The owner didn't open the gym to get rich

Found this one for ya:
• Loprinzi's Gym
2414 SE 41st St.
Portland, OR 43845
(503) 232-8311

Tom Rau, frequent traveler and fan of Loprinzi's had this to say about the classic gym:

"This gym has been in this location for a good 50 years and is worth seeing if for no other reason than all the signed bodybuilding pictures on the wall. John Grimek, Steve Reeves to name a few, and of course it was owned for years by the great Loprinzi family.

Talk about a classic! We give the late, great Sam Loprinzi's place four dumbbells!


Hope those help!
