Very cool.

Bugz has some good vids.

It's actually pretty good.  That squat machine at 3:50 is golden compared to some of the crap out nowdays.  (If you are lucky your gym even has one)

Love how they wrote over the numbers to make the weight heavier.  LOL

Very cool looking gym but yeah why write over the stacks to make them heavier? Calf machine was 400 and they make it 800, 190 dumbbells that are 140-150s.

cool gym, but you would need a tetanus shot after training there.

Great gym...Bodywork is probably the most old school gym in the area now that Ed Ryan's gym closed.  I train there several times a month, its a serious bodybuilding gym in south Philly.  The owner is around 70, really pleasant guy. Place is clean but not alot of cardio type equipment ( fine with me) its on the second floor over a transmission shop. In the summer the windows are tilted out  ( no ac)  its not that big a place but its got whatever you need

Bodyworld,  not bodywork-spellcheck

That's the kind of hard core gym I love. Two gyms in my town. The posh gym that looks like it costs millions in equipment and flooring. Might have 30 treadmills. The other one I went to that had that dungeon look. Scott, Oliva, Arnold, Franco, Zane, Coleman and Yates trained in hard core dumps.  You don't see too many champs coming out of palace gyms.

Maybe before Ronnie Coleman this was true.

Culture, Heath, Dex, Rhoden, and so on were not training in dumps.

There is nothing worse than AC in a gym, I got sick several times in the commercial one I used to train. The one I train now I pay like 14 dollars a month, no membership bullshit and credit card fees, etc

You could even make the argument that the Gold's of the 1970's wasn't a dump at all -

.

The benches were what everybody else had at the time. The Universal is in good repair, and a modern for the time machine. It's got that red / orange carpet that was a 70's thing for hotels, etc...., but it's not dirty.

The first gym reminds me of Frenchie's, that was Brooklyn for a long time -

.

It closed a while back.
