what was it like
was ronnie there?
was brian there hitting the heavy bag with spinning backfists?
-
it is really dirty, really hot, and motovating as hell. couldn't train there year long, but it is fun for an occational workout.
-
yeah i dont know how i would handle the heat but otherwise it seems cool
gotta wonder tho what that heat does to ones strength
maybe ronnie would be even stronger elsewhere

I have never trained there when it was above 100, but a couple of time it was in the 90's and you almost have like a instant pump and you only need like 1 warm up set, because you are already sweating by the time you get out of the car. and the fans there just blow the hot air around. I always carry a full size towel in there, and by the end, it is normally soaked.
-
i trained there twice,i saw ronnie when i was leaving the second time.Branch warren was there the first time but he wasnt working out.i liked it,its allot like the gym in my hometown.

there is a personal trainer guy at my gym (golds) who claims he trained with ronnie but i called bullshit when someone asked him how tall he was and he "didnt remember" ::)

Yes. Twice.
1st time Ronnie was there but it was middle of Feburary and he was offseason so he was more or less tinkering around with the weights and bullshitting with a couple other big greasy negroes. Gym was somewhat empty with loud blaring RAP over the stereo.
2nd time it was in September and it was HOT. Ronnie wasn't there and the gym was somewhat empty. LOUD metal music playing.
Brian was behind front desk on the internet or giving his hunting dogs a bath by out in front of the place.

Bluto, myself and the rest of the team Levrone crew should hit up Metroflex. We'd wreck the place with our intense workouts.
-
psffff team martinez would impress 8)
-
If you are in the Dallas area you should try Texas Gym. It is alot like Metroflex. It was voted most hard core gym by some power lifting mag.

yeah perhaps you can ask Ronnie to just shut up whenever he trains. He's scaring away the customers and shitting on Brian's membership business

What kind of idiot would train in a place with no air conditioning in the summer in Texas?
Heatstroke is "hardcore"! ::)

I bet you there are lots of people who joins Metroplex just because everybody else says it's a hardcore place. Hell, most of these idiots would probably benefit more from their Local bally's

I have lived in Dallas my whole life and have never wanted to go train at Metroflex

So you're my neighbor I always see smuggling big boxes of porn into his house. I'll say hi next time! ;D
As for Metroflex, I've been here the past 11 years and haven't made it to Metroflex yet either. Flame away if you must, but the 24 hour fitness I go to has a great atmosphere on some days. Art Atwood's a semi-regular (before he got busted), so is that TJ guy that you see in all the new Prolab ads, among a lot of other amateur BB's too. There's several powerlifters too so there's usually a decent amount of weight being thrown around. I don't need 100+ temperatures to get motivated, if the average lifter is pressing a 100lbs more than me then you automatically turn it up a notch.

You guys must be animals. Keyboard warriors for years on a hardcore BB site and completly lacking in curiousity. ::)

Jay Cutler doesn't have the balls to do that.

Last August. The giant thermometer on the back wall read 110º. There's a GIANT fan that does a good enough job of circulating hot, stale air. Cobwebs everywhere. I was covered in dirt when I left. Branch was training like a madman.

Man I would love to train at a place like MetroFlex. You guys that live closeby yet still don't train there are unbelievable. I would be all over that opportunity.
-
on ronnie's dvd, there were people working out shirtless. pretty funny.
I saw that, one was a white dude about 150 pounds ;D
If only Ronnie visited getbig, he could've thrown in something like "Daaaaamn baby, you is a BEAST!!!! Look at dem 12" inch arms baby!! Oh bruddah, I bet you da type of guy who come in here wid no shirt so's he can rub his nekkid skin against da benches I use and gets a hard on, gayer dan Cutler..."
-

me and ronnie would pray together then hit the weights

I remember that day Shawn. I have the footage for all to see -
I train there when I can. I stayed in Texas for a week following the Ronnie Coleman Classic with one purpose in mind - to chew on the Iron there with Branch and his training partner Jay Moore. I threw up more times than I care to share but I cant wait until this coming August to do it all over again.

why you throw up? you a girly man or something?
ive never seen ronnie throw up not even once
and nobody would blame him if he did, consider what he eats for breakfast each morning
-
I threw up because -
I was training legs at a much faster pace than usual
I normally train heavy duty (one set to failure)
I wasnt used to the many multiple drop sets
I wasnt used to the heat.................... .......and I'm a girly man

Sure
-
I've always wanted to train at MetroFlex.....just for a day though. Not a good environment to train anymore with the huge attraction it is now.....seemed much nicer circa 96-97 when you could go in there and be the only one training.
-
So you're my neighbor I always see smuggling big boxes of porn into his house. I'll say hi next time! ;D
yes sir

Throwing up in that heat after multiple sets wouldn't be any surprise. From what i've heard of that gym they probably wouldn't clean it up till late in the week. :-X
