Im stationed in 29 palms cali and was wondering if there were any hard chagers out here to teach me the way of the iron. Ive been lifting for a few years but want to get serious about it.

You know where the Mojave Desert is? It’s kinda in that.
Have fun. I hear 29 Palms is a big party town, a lot of hot college chicks.
29 Palms? Have you surfed Lake Bandini yet?
in 1988 we called it 29 stumps,they must have grown back,semper fi
Best bet is for you to head to the gym on base at different ours of the day… Morning, lunch, after work, then late at night, to see who is training there at those times, and who is really serious. (squats, deadlifts, oly movements, etc)
I doubt heavily that you’re going to find anyone besides other Marines and Docs who are lifting. The Stumps is just the asshole of the desert
Good Luck, Semper Fi.

Thanks for the advice. I dont work on mainside the only chance i get to go to the gym is after work and in the evenings. Theres some big dudes in there too. I just dont want to bother them during there workout. But i did get my below parralel squats in yesterday.

Check with the MCCS folks for personal trainers. Some of them are good, some suck. MCCS tends to hire the BOSU ball, light weight for sculpting types, but you might find someone who knows what they are doing. At least you don’t have to pay for it.
Enjoy it out there. I love the place, but then I am a tanker and there isn’t many better places to drive tanks around than in 29 Palms.

I know, it was a joke. I was there for a year.
Check out the Comm shop…Those assholes are always big. But hey, if you want to get big, no better place to get stuck (unless of course you are a grunt…).
Good luck. Semper Fi.
