Was a memeber at 2 dungeons...
1 in NY, Brookhaven Long Island...Hardcore Gym....it was the basement of a strip club. No foo foo equipment, no AC, paint coming off the walls, chalk all over....
2nd was Paramount gym in Miami. Just a big warehouse, with industrial fans trying to keep it cool. There may have been a handful of females there, either competitors themselves, with their boyfriends or to be trained by the owner, who was a monster himself...
They would take machines into the parking lot and spot weld additional posts on the machines like leg press and calf raise so more weight could be added...
God I miss that place....
