Tweeti work out at x-sport during the summer its clean, new, and tons of hot chicks. when im at school i lift in our multi-million dollar faciility, but i have lifted at the shit hole at my high school and a local gym full of old people. i like the new gyms but i use the free weights. i just dont like all the 120 pound kids doing cardio and thinking they are ripped, they dont understand u cant wittle a stick.

TweetBad environments equal bad workouts. I don't care if the gym is packed with every pice of hammer, BM, Cybex, you name it, if the clientle sucks, so does the gym. If the equipment is always broke, the gym sucks. If the staff is a bunch of imaginary lat symdrome idiots the gym usually sucks.

However, there was this pit back in Atlanta many years ago called Coffeys Gym (spelling?). This place stunk, the pads were always tore, but the people there were HUGE. I saw a chick with 700 on squats. This was the place you go to learn bodybuilding. There was no small talk, no water fountain huddles, just hardcore lifters. If you kept your mouth shut and payed attention you could learn a lot of shit. They don't have anything like that here in Colorado Springs. I actually miss the motivation of guys with 20+ inch arms and 30+ inch legs (and lean). That always made me push a lot harder.

I'm with you on that one. I can't stand those gyms which really are not gyms but are "health/fitness centers." They contain too much cardio machines and have indoor swimming pools and indoor tracks. It's always crowded by skinny guys who think they are swole or by 300lbs plus people with 2% muscle mass who can't even bench 135lb for warmup. Not to mention that they play the gayiest techno music ever created. Places like that piss me off! Give me the dirty funky hardcore gym anytime!
