Title: If you could open up a hardcore gym---What would you name it?
Post by: Wombat on January 25, 2006, 01:33:32 PM
Lets say you just hit powerball for lets say about 50 million...You toured the world and did everything you wanted to after the first year...Now you wanted to open up a Hardcore gym and making a profit was not a big priority...You always dreamt of owning a gym...What would you name it and what would it be like?


My name would be

JUICED
    the
         gym

mine would be simple---no areobics---you have to bench 225(if your a guy)to get in the door-all women welcome....More power racks then you could imagine...Dumbbells up to 200---Plenty of caulk everywhere---
No personal trainers---sell ear plugs at the door and play music as loud as i wanted---no sales people at all---one yearly price for everyone---no memership fees---

Ok, here is another question. Can a gym really be hardcore if it has female members? I started working out at a commercial gym in 1979. I can count on one hand the number of girls I have ever seen work out and put effort into it. Mainly they are eye candy. They eat up valuable gym space and get in the way. 99.9% of the woman I have seen work out over the years belong at Curves and not a hardcore gym.

I would never open up a hardcore gym, as a metrosexual haven with a hundred cardio machines would do a lot better financially.  Everybody knows that metrosexuals will rarely continue but they'll keep paying because they're imbeciles and serial posers.  You don't have to go to gym but you've got to be a member of one..

I'd sell those idiots overpriced water and supplements too(stocking bee pollen from Vince Goodrum).

I'd call it something like "Club 68" as weak metrosexuals will be seduced by the fact they will be a member of a club.  68 because it immediately is recognised as the number before 69.  Sounds stupid but will likely sucker them in.

And finally I would hire a full faux hawk toting staff to canter around and look like they are doing something.

I'll be rich!

as funny as that seems, it is true. I have a friend that owns two golds. i asked him why doesnt he played harder music and cater to the bb crowd too. there are alot of state and national level competitors from our gym.  he was like hey i love bb, but you guys are broke from food, gear, and shit. on top of that you always want a discount of hookup on a shake. these insurance agents and milfs pay for their shakes and full price for vitamins etc. got a point.
its seems like golds introduce world gym to offset the bb image or hardcore image off golds to world. they both ended up focusing on the $$$$$$$ and political correctness.

cant we agree to have a seperate section of the gym where it would be the dungeon atmosphere. hard music. clanking weights, chalk, etc.
if i had my own gym i would make the $$$ first, but i would offer the hardcore room. a place where hard training powerlifters, bb could go with a posing room etc.

Hardcore gyms can make money but generally not a lot...

Comes down to costs really.

look at a place like metroflex...

small industrial space (low rent), what looks like 2nd hand equipment, owner works the majority of the hours by himself.

The gym I own isn't hardcore but it's not a fancy place either (no aerobics, no TV's, industrial space, used equipment, work most of the hours myself) About the only thing needed to make it "hardcore" would be less cardio and heavier dumbbells and more benches.

Luckily I live in an area where people aren't into flashy things or franchises businesses (even the local mcdonalds actually went out of business-people support the smaller cafes here etc).

So long as a gym is clean and the equipment works people will come to it. price and convenience is the main issue for people.

Well mine would have to be a "club" rather then gym because i wouldn't want a bunch of soccer moms and old men doin aerobics in my place, 18-20 can join but must either play a sport, powerlift or amateur/pro BB. At age 20 you could gain full membership and must attend a specified number of days per quarter year or your membership could be revoked. Also to join you must be approved by selection of members that way ass clowns wont get in.

Was a memeber at 2 dungeons...

1 in NY, Brookhaven Long Island...Hardcore Gym....it was the basement of a strip club. No foo foo equipment, no AC, paint coming off the walls, chalk all over....

2nd was Paramount gym in Miami. Just a big warehouse, with industrial fans trying to keep it cool. There may have been a handful of females there, either competitors themselves, with their boyfriends or to be trained by the owner, who was a monster himself...

They would take machines into the parking lot and spot weld additional posts on the machines like leg press and calf raise so more weight could be added...

God I miss that place....
