Title: Making The Trip to Gold's of Venice
Post by: The Coach on October 26, 2007, 11:58:48 AM
Ok, for the first time in 3 years I'm going to Venice Golds, the last time was was just to visit because my fiance' wanted to see, but tomorrow I'm going up there to train for the first time in 20 years. How much has it changed? Anyone?

Yes, more juicers, everyone is now a "competitor", few make over 5g a year doing it.  The percentage of douchebags has gone up ten fold.

I've been training there for the last four years. It still has good equipment. My only complaints are that they got rid of the real t-bar row, they need more than one really good flex leg press (they have many leg presses, but one is far superior to the others), and yes there are a fairly high number of douches, but if you ignore them, you can still get a really good workout

haha, It was a vague judgement on my part.  However, considering the "Gold's" crowd at my gym, I would guess the people in Venice are just as bad.  All drugs, confusing that for their own accomplishments in a gym..haha, laughable people.

yeah, there is some of that obviously at a gym like venice gold's

however, there are some guys that are very serious and have been training for many years. that kind of off sets the all drugs douches
