Pumps Muscle Station-Gym. Located on the southside/Chicago. Walking distance from where the White Sox play...

Everytime it rains...you got puddles on the floor. I have to leave buckets out in certain places before I leave. The bathroom doesnt even have a door and there's never any toilet paper and when there is...assholes in the gym like to run the roll under the sink to be wiseguys.

Dumbbells go to 160lbs. There are 10-100lb plates...old school chain link Nautilus machines. NO air-condition...no windows nothing. Smells like a cross between rust and mildew in there but nevertheless...its a GREAT place to train your heart out.
