Hey all:
I live in Toronto and am looking for a real gym… before I get flamed and roasted for asking, I’m just looking for some basics that I haven’t found in the gyms in Scarborough or downtown…
If anyone knows of a gym that has some or all of the following in the GTA area please PM me; I’ll work out the membership costs from there
Dumbbells over 120 lbs
Reverse hyper
real official weight and length Olympic bars
weight releasers
standing hamstring curl machine
Trap bars, hex squat bars, etc.
I just had to vent after seeing Christian Thibaudeau’s pix of his gym
The closet I’ve found meeting my wants is Fitness365 (the old Monster gym) but it’s like 40+ kms from my house.
Can anyone help me out ? Thanks in advance. JAY[/quote]
I used to workout at UTM (U of T at Mississauga) 3 years ago. It is a great little gym. They host Olympic lifting competitions from now and then since they have a room reserved especially for olympic lifts. Only gym that I know of equipped with an olympic lifting room.
