What's your gym like?

[Man of Steel]

I train at a uni gym and the free weight area is cordoned off from the machines. It has five benches (two flat, one incline and two rackless), a power rack, five Ivanko bars with loads of plates, five lifting platform/squat racks with Eleiko bars and bumper plates, two GHR's, 1-40kg DB's, chin/dip bars and random gym stuff like ropes and swiss balls.
During the day it's full of student scum curlers with the odd ISS athlete and at night it has BB's and more curlers. Luckily its usually quiet and I'm the only person who uses the power rack.

sounds likes a bloody good gym mate!

I think I've just cum reading that

[help]

i train in either a uni gym when i need to use heavy DBs or in the exclusive Glasgow Barbell. It has a quality power rack, a bar, loads of weights, a sturdy bench, a floor...... window...... damp patches....... door.....

You can "cum" up any time and spot for me PikeKing.

[PikeKing]

...... damp patches....... only if you're there though mate ;)

[Scourge]

I'm training in the first kind. I'm sure someone's imported buckets of dirt to make the place look authentic. Kit's all quite basic, but it does the trick - Lots of barbells, squat stands and a shedload of weights. Not much else you could want, except maybe a proper power cage and a thick barbell.

Garage. No dog though...

[kinkymisspinky]

same gym as scourge.

[Henk]

Garage, never have to wait for the dumbbells. Must get a real squat rack though before I squash myself. Oh, and a heater...

I voted for the first option. My gym has every basic piece of equipment. No bands, chains, boards, grip stuff or glute ham bench though :009:

It's full of chavs, rude boys, curl boys, you name it. The smith machine is the most used piece of equipment which does amuse me. The power rack is used more or less only by me.

It stinks and is dirty.

I train at some poncy footballers wives country club. Its good because they have a reasonably kitted out free weights area used exclusively by me. Power rack, DB's up to 50kg (though after 30kg they are in 5kg jumps), 3 Oly bars, 2 bench stations and plenty of rubber coated plates. If it had an Oly lifting platform I would get a rock-on. I train on my own, none of the staff are strong enough to spot for me (I dread to see there reeaction if someone actually decided to shift some real weight in there, they sh1t bricks when I squat 3 plates) and none of the other trainees are interested in getting results in any shape or form.

LMAO, I used to train at David Loyds. Great facilities, probably because I'm the only one who used them. Shame about my fellow members...

My gym is part of a large New York City chain that tries to be metrosexual, but ends up being totally ghetto. The only saving grace is that my branch is the one nobody goes to, so it's super dirty. There's a (1) rack, dip station, and plenty of free weights. The Cons are that they play the worst club/dance music and I want to kill all the trainers. Otherwise, it suits my purposes for the time being.

[Stubob]

Power rack
Bench
Olympic bar
250kg of Olympic weight

Boxes made for box squatting and also deadlifting off of a box..

[BengDogg]

homegym in my halway, dog spotter naturally

[lil_jimmy]

My gym is totally gay, pink dumbells, spin classes, tanning beds you name it.

Some guys even carry around towels which have pics of male strippers on them?!? Highly inappropriate if u ask me.

The free weights area is ok though, plenty of plates, but only one bench, one squat and no power rack! :mad:

A lot of london gyms suck, IMO.

My gym is full of fags, but it has a decent amount of free weights, and I seem to be the only one that uses them.

Power Cage
Squat Rack
Eleiko bars and weights
Lots of dumbbells

All of that stuff is basically in a different room to the 100s of machines they have, so it's good. :041:
