Title: Classic old-skool NYC gym
Post by: pumpster on June 19, 2007, 04:12:59 PM

For anyone in or visiting NYC..Gladiator Gym used to be on E. 6th in the East Village, now has reappeared in the same general neighborhood now below Houston on the lower east side. 69 Columbia at Rivington, in the basement of a multi-building apartment complex about a block off Columbia. $150/year, good old-skool flavor and equipment some of which is decades old. Just about ideal training temperatures slightly warmish with lots of fans, old-daze BB pics galore along the walls, and nice cold water cooler. ;)

First pic at the entrance just past the front desk, beginning with cardio machines..
