Hardcore dungeon is the best way to descibe the atmosphere at our gym. Good supply of free weights and some machines. People are serious about lifting, they do not wear designer workout clothes and the owner keeps the place clean and he freaks out if people do not put weights away. No macho posturing is allowed, everyone helps everyone, no personal trainers or aerobics instructors. The only frou-frou thing is evening yoga classes on Sundays and I find this necessary at the end of a hard week.

In between. I lift at a nice place, its a pretty large full service gym with heavy db's and pretty much allows for PL type movements. (if you've ever tried to dead at a fairy gym you know how bitchy they can get) Couple juice heads and a few amatuer bb's as well.

yeah, when I was still lifting at the campus rec, they got to where they were making me do deads with those little square balance foam deals underneath the weight. Provided a HUGE bounce, so I had to increase my working weight by like 45lbs over what it shoulda been. In retrospect (saying this like it HASN'T only been 3 weeks since then, lol), it probably helped me out a little, b/c I was able to feel what that weight felt like, so that now I'm almost up to that level with real iron and lifts from the floor.
I defintely know what Dougoefre5h and spikeylizard are talking about...I litterally introduced deadlifts to my gym! now there are ILS freaks there tryin to get into it...They bitch at me for using chalk (which i ignore em) and they always tell me to quiet down when im doin rack pulls
I was looking for a hardcore gym in my area, and reluctantly went to a 24hour fitness. you know, the kind of place that encourages you to wear matching adidas gear (they seel it on the racks NO SHIT!) with adidas footwear, head bands, and 12 eliptical machines,,, anyway,,, for 799 (plus tax) i got 1 year paid, I get the following 2 years free, and every year thereafter is a 20 doller re-sign fee. so after 5 years ive paid 799+61 (tax) +40 (last two years) = $900
15 years = $1100
25 years = $1300
if youve never been to a 24hour fitness, its exactly what it sounds like,,, 24/7 they are open! depending on what package you get, you have access to ALL thier gyms (west coast and over to like WY or summat) some have pools, courts, saunas, some are basic and to the point. they also (mine anyway) has 150lbs dumbells, and at least 6 sets of benches,,, and ive seen some big ass fools eating steel plates,,, so they serve up apple AND orange juice in there somewhere!
ok ok ok , I am done,,, they aint paying me for this shit (yet).
