Great looking gym. You have more than enough room. It’s very impressive.

How many different gyms has your group had now? New one looks great. I’ll want to stop in if I’m ever in Des Moines.

Biker, this our 4th location in Des Moines since 2011.

We started in a 20x30 room. Locations have gotten progressively bigger. This one is @ 7500 square feet.

We could actually hold a meet here. Which we will.
Owner & teammate threw out the idea of having a local novice/1st time meet. May generate some new members. We need to add @ 30 members by 1/1/18.

2 of the 3 comp benches we’re open on a Monday night but 4 squat racks and both monolifts we’re in use. Man, I love our PL gym.
Had to bench tonight due to schedule constraints. Benched with a young kid in the gym. Fist two sets were his weight and stayed at 225 so we didn’t have to change out his weight and put on another 45.
