Vince, you don't comprehend very well do you? Go back and read the posts on why they gave the equipment to me. It's in perfect condition. Don't even get me started on the bullshit gimmicky "state of the art" equipment. Here's two of the best known gyms in the country with out "state of the art" equipment from both power lifting and bodybuilding.now kindly STFU and maybe you'll learn a few things.
These gyms are famous for the
PEOPLE THAT TRAINED THERE. It has nothing whatsoever to do with the equipment itself.
Personally, I would never accept a gym with weight shrewn all over the floor, floorboards falling out of place with no obvious housekeeping done whatsoever.
While a gym doesn't have to be as clean as a doctor's office, it should be ran and operated like Dorian Yates Gym where the weights are re-racked and clean and Bill Pearl Gym where all the equipment was wiped down and cleaned everyday to avoid a staph infection or some other nasty buggers.
It does not take but a little time and effort to put your weights up and clean the facility. Those gyms may have had the greatest bodybuilders, powerlifters, and athletes train there but they are still a dump and the owners should be ashamed of themselves for letting a gym looking that way.
A dirty unkempt gym with weights all over the place isn't hardcore...its a health hazard and its one of the reasons why Ronnie slipped and messed up his back while doing squats on the Metroflex because some idiot carelessly left his garbage there.
And like I said, I can only go by your description of the equipment which is secondhand used equipment. If it was perfect, then the school would not have given it away for free but once I see pictures of your gym, then I'll be able to make more well informed opnion.
