Is your gym hardcore?
« on: April 20, 2008, 01:51:44 PM »
Despite all the good efforts of various webmasters out there, there still isn't a complete listing of hardcore bodybuilding and powerlifting gyms in the world.

If your gym is bodybuilding and/or powerlifting friendly, then post its contact information in this thread so people in your area can read about it and go visit (and hopefully sign up and help to build their business!)

The gyms that best fit this description in Portland, Oregon are:

Loprinzi’s Gym, Manager, 2414 SE 41st Ave, Portland, OR 97214

and

Giants Gym, Manager, 5223 NE Sandy Blvd, Portland, OR 97213

unfortunately no.   


But they let me get by with what I do, so I'm not complaining.

Hardcore gym? ::)

How about just having a gym with good ER racks, Eleiko bars, and good equipment. My gym is a powerlifting club. But it sure as hell isn't some kind of "hardcore dungeon joint".

None of that "hardcore" atmosphere.

Personally, I vomit on that bullshit.

But go ahead big guy.

Play all the Pantera, Limp Bizkit and "Growling" bands you want.

I'm sure there are some really "tough guys" where you train. ;D






BTW, I personally banned Rap and Nu Metal from our PL club - if I die now, at least that is something I can be proud of. 8)

I'd settle for a gym that lets you bring chains and other equipment in, and one with some members who know what they are doing and how to spot.   ::)
