I train at the same gym as Vic in Bronx, NY. Apparently the word is he is close to partnering in a new gym opening some time in April 2006

hope it goes well for him this time

I'd like to pre-pay for the first 5 years, just so I don't have to worry about making payments each month.

Nothing like a sound investment!!!

I presume Fred Bigot is not his partner in this venture.

He wasn't his partner in the first venture.

If true, this is laughable and an affront to every paying gym goer everywhere.

I hope the people/partners opening this gym are not dumb enough to use Vic’s name in connection with this new venture.

Oh Gawd, anyone wanna take bets on how long this one lasts? I got 9 months.

I am pre-paying for the next ten years because i am 100% sure that his gym will still be around not.

This sounds great. I'm gonna buy a $3,000 lifetime membership.

Did Vic ever fess up or make any apologies for taking memberships the day before closing?

If you were a member of Vic's Old Gym, they will give you a $5 discount on the $3,000 lifetime membership, so your total cost will be only $2,995.

I live beside the Brooklyn Bridge. Would you like to make a down payment on it?

It's underground, you have to ring up 2 hours before known opening time each day, as it changes each day.

maybe this time he wont get busted for drugs or even sell drugs out of this gym like he did the old one.

kinda wierd, but you're an ifbb pro with a contract and you own your own gym, which the word was that it was a nice place and doing farely well, then you're busted for selling drugs???

anyways, he's overated as it is.

The gym location is Manhatten....Exact location hasn't been decided yet...I would guess anywhere but uptown ( Dyckman st - Crown Heights)..Piss poor, Crack neighborhood!

Moms - I couldnt care less what others think...I think Vic is a pretty cool dude.....Im not great friends with him, but he's always been a nice guy to me and my boys...

Perhaps he's success will allow him to make good in regards to he's past!

If you go to Vic with that past receipt, your membership will be honored at the new spot.
