I grew up in Newman. I now live in SF so it takes about 30-40 min to get the Diablo.
I was talkin to Ted and we thought it would be pretty cool to see someone come in from Manteca. It takes a lot of determination and desire to do that type of commute.
Whether or not you join (I certainly hope you do) I’m glad to see you join the powerlifting crowd.
Bobu-I already made arrangements with my daughter’s babysitter and I will hopefully be able to get out there a minimum of 3-4 times per week. I am extremely determined and I hope that I will be able to start training out there before the end of this week. Just out of curiosity…do any women train there?
NN, I’m on the Ball State Powerlifting team, so I spend most of my time training in the athletic weightroom there. When I’m back home I either lift in my garage or the shitty “fitness center” in Lebanon. If I end up going home for the summer there’s no way that I’m going to spend another three months training there. How’s your gym in Avon?
Daox, Avon is decent, it has what I need. It is very small though. I bet BSU is a nice place to powerlift. I went to Marian College their weightroom is about the size of your bathroom probably. Very small. 3 benches, very few free weights, 2 squat racks, 1 leg press, few Nautilus machines. It sucked trust me. I had to break down and get a membership at Bally’s.
