I can't find the thread in which stunt was saying the golds in Vegas have closed. Sad day. I'm headed there soon as I do every year. Where's that gym Ruhl was working out in in that video?
I think it's the athletic club or something. Address or location please?
Thanks.
I dread the day I hear Venice closes.

You look like such a star-struck homo in those pics but you were a damn good looking stud. Hopefully you pulled enough ass during the good times to get you through the bad times. Great pics man.

I was at Gold's from around 1989-93 and trained around mid morning (9am or so). Got to meet my bbing hero, Mike Mentzer and a bit surprised at his squeaky voice. Also, got to see Flex, Cormier, Dillet and the rest of that posse train. I didn't really follow pro bbing at the time but thought that Flex looked the best of all of them but Dillet was just unbelievably freaky. I remember there was this petite and kind of skinny girl with short blonde hair who I thought was attractive. I was considering if I should make a play or not but decided against it. She just seemed so small and frail looking. It turned out she was Dillet's girlfriend. LOL. Too small for me. ::)

I suppose it's not really that much of a coincidence that there are several of us here who trained there during that same time period, but it's crazy to think that someone could have come up to you back then and said, hey kid, someday you'll be writing about this on a computer hooked up to others in this gym right now who are scattered all over the country. Reminiscing about your youth and the good simple times of chicken breast and rice, working out and living the dream.

I was there all that time working out at scattered hours so I'm sure our paths crossed. Awesome times. I don't think there were many pros I didn't meet. I worked out there from lates 80s on.
I pretty much kept to myself although I was involved in a few benefit paper grocery bag drives.

Lee was just swollen massive there, unreal.
What I like and respect about Lee is that on every single training video he has ever done, he has hands down the cleanest form at like perfect tempo out of all the pro's, and even still kept it with pretty heavy weights
You were a pretty big all around dude as well, I had those types of gym clothing back then as well, didnty look closely but there was probably a hint of hockey hair cut at some point as well

I hope Gold's Venice stays open. I know it has seen better days. The equipment was better in 2003 when I joined. Nearly every time they replace the old stuff the replacement is inferior. However, I don't think there is any better option for serious weight lifters on the west side of LA.
I have noticed that some of the trainers are no longer there- such as Will Harris. I don't know where they moved to, but I think it is a bad omen. Hope I'm wrong.

At the time, only this old fart and I use to use the air pressurized Keiser equipment kept in back by the stairs and gate. Love that equipment. Easy on the joints and you can simulate forced reps and negatives by manipulating the air pressure. I've never seen that type of equipment since.
