Someone wrote and asked me to give some details about the gym......
HARDCORE...I'll put it this way, they make it look like a freaking palace in Ronnies videos compared to it's everyday appearance. Today was the second time I've been in there, I went in there about 3 monts ago after I saw one Cost of Redemption. I didn't work out, although they said I could try the place out. I just wanted to know how much it cost per month etc. The guy running the desk was really cool, it was about 10 oclock and the place was pretty packed. He was spotting a a small guy squatting around 600 or so. There is a lot of old school equipment, rusty dumbells machines etc. Oh yeah that squat rack with the shocks on it is cool as hell.
They have a ton of speakers hooked up and seriously BLAST the music. No air conditioning or heat as best I can tell. I live in North Dallas so it's about 45 minutes away from me, but I'm thinking of joining just to go over and do legs on the weekends. Everyone that was in there both times was friendly, it's like Cheers or something when you walk in there. People come up and pat and welcome you to the gym. Talked to this old guy, he said he's been working out there for years. He said he didn't care for the music, but keeps going there for the atmosphere.
I'm thinking about joining just to go over on the weekends to work legs. I figure the atmosphere alone will help me add a couple more 45's. I advise anyone that comes to the Dallas/Ft Worth area to at least go in and check it out.
