Get some pics up Coach.

Not done but we're having our first training sessions starting tomorrow. Waiting for other equipment and necessities to be delivered as well as getting the cosmetic BS done. Here's a sneak peek...

Good job!

Nothing needs to be brand new and shiny. Just clean.

Good luck!

The problem with that is, even though they have the equipment they still need to learn a program to use it unless they call in a pt to show them.
are you retarded or smthg? you re talking about fat or skinny fat men and women who have no clue about physical conditionning, but what about the millions of smarter teens who benefit from the experience of their brothers and fathers?

Most teens go on the internet nowadays and get all the infos they need for free. Keep convincing yourself that you re useful.

And you just keep right on thinking there isn't more to training than what your dumbass thinks. You actually think beginners know what they're doing by just copying an exercise from YouTube? Do you really want to get in a training debate with me???????

Better than a bunch of useless machines. Never seen anyone drop weight on a arm curl machine.

Hes not in the 1%.  Hes got a garage stall with throw away gear.  I trained at the IMG in Bradenton FL when I was trying to be a pro athlete out of college. That's where SERIOUS athletes go, not some schmucks storage facility with some midget Mexican trainer.

so many of these crossfit type gyms popping up in warehouses and such.  Look inside and they have a few ropes, those olympic rings a few barbells and bags with sand.  I see these assholes doing walking lunges up and down the sidewalk because their gym has not room in it.

For $500 you can start your own crossfit gym, charge whores with knee high socks $100 and buy your shit used on craigslist.

Why? because it has an indoor field? LOL

We have field days 2 days a week in the off season and 3 days per week pre-season. Besides, that pic was taken before we opened on Monday. It's not finished "stud". It's killing you that I'm in the 1% because you bring up in almost every post. lol

Whatever. I'm happy at the gym I go to. It has free weights, bench's, squat racks, Hammer Strength, Cybex, big cardio room. And guess what, there's no tires, ropes aor any other such nonsense the "personal trainers" and "strength coach"'s of today are pushing. I'll stick with Arnold's Encyclopedia and benching and squatting.

The place is spotless. Location really doesn't matter (we are in an industrial park, location by appointment only). Equipment is bulletproof.

If you're happy, you're happy. We had 26 clients come in yesterday and already had 10 since 7.

Maybe you and I should go in on some rentals together.

Falcon and Adonis would be an unstoppable real estate duo.
