As you walk through the door you say hello to the receptionist but she does not hear you because the music is so loud, going onto the gym floor you see most people lifting without shirts or shoes and screaming at the top of their voices when they are getting the last rep.
There is chalk lying everywhere as people write their personal best lifts on the walls, you walk into the change room and you see some members smoking a joint to relax after a hard training session, some of the big dudes are injecting insulin and gh then doing a double bicep in the mirror.

dont forget the huge dudes hanging outside on the warm days discussing sauce cycles as normal people drive by staring at them like they just seen bigfoot or the lochness monster,ive trained in gyms that you described above and ive made my best gains in those pits,and the sauce is easy to get which makes it that much better ;)

I trained at a little hole in wall for several years in San Marcos, TX while finishing school......called S.M.A.C......is a great little hardcore gym. Has produced several excellent powerlifting teams and a couple of NPC competitors....just a great gym with a bunch of great athletes....met Mark Henry there once. Chalk dust, must, rusty weights, a chalk board with members stats listed on it, no chicks workin the desk just a bunch of bruisers and the man that's owned the gym since the 70's....prices haven't changed in like 25 years.....I had some excellent workouts in that gym.....I miss it!!!
-
i stopped reading after the first sentence.....why would you ever say hello to the receptionist? you're there to get work done, not chit chat about which fucking tampon applicator is more gentle on your vagina!!!!!! WHEN YOURE WALKING INTO THE GYM ITS TIME TO GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME AND PREPARE TO LIFT SOME FUCKING WEIGHT
RAAHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGGGG GG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I go to the gym all I want to hear is the clamping of the weights.

why don't you come up with some funny shit of your own instead of criticizing and being a hater, you remind me of the lazy blacks in New Orleans when Katrina happened waiting for a government handout instead of taking matters in their own hands.

The most hardcore place I trained at was in my weightlifting class in highschool. The teacher was and ex-canadian level weightlifter and was pretty strong.
I remember on time, I hurt my shoulder doing snatch so for a couple of course I only trained legs.
After each brutal squat workout, he put 225 on my bar and had me do it for 50 reps. I had 2 spotter cause I was pretty weak back then I was only able to do it 20 or 25 times and the spotters helped me for the other 25 reps. I could walk for a couple of minutes after this.

What's a female receptionist doing in a hardcore gym?
No reception(ist), no lockers, no machines just free weights, no showers, no music (ok maybe rap or rock), no windows, no heating system, no airco...

Wasn't that on an episode of Mad TV? BTW, it was a gay gym.

I've only been inside one real gym: Hercules Health Club in Dallas. This was an old-fashioned gym that catered only to serious lifters. It was owned by Jim Witt, an old WWII veteran and powerlifting pioneer. Witt didn't care how many memberships he sold. There were no contracts or sign-up fees. If you weren't serious about lifting, Witt would escort you out of the gym at gunpoint. Wimps need not apply.
This was a real gym for real men who wanted to get strong. One might even call it the "Holy Grail" of gyms. There was no air-conditioning. There was no music. There were no rows of skinny Mexicans and wiggers doing curls with 25 lb dumbbells. There were no televisions, no treadmills, and no tanning booths. There were no saunas. There was no child daycare center. There were no salesmen and no personal trainers. There were no electronic fund transfers. They were never crowded with yuppies and college students. They did not sell t-shirts or other apparel. They did not have the latest equipment. There were no braggards or loudmouths, and almost everyone could bench 300.
I've trained at several "hardcore" gyms in Texas and Oklahoma, and they were all weak imitators of the real thing. Any gym with a squat rack is considered "hardcore" these days. The Iron Gods weep. :'(

A reception with big boobs is a must to get your test levels rising when you enter the gym.

Did you ever go to the Austin Gym in Dallas back in the late 80's-early 90's? That was a pretty hardcore badass place. I don't know if it's still in business but a lot of pro BBers (male and female), pro wrestlers and other pro athletes could be found there on any given day. I used to go there and just feed off the ambient energy and had some pretty memorable workouts.
The owner even did some time for selling gear, during which time his wife ran the place... that gives it some instant hardcore credibility right there!
