Agreed (I've paid up to $25 casually) - and actually the place is quite special. 4 separate rooms/tunnels full of industrial strength equipment, clean showers, not too crowded, serious vibe with some big fellas to push you along.
I'm a fan.

Was talking to a bloke in the gym and he was talking about how serious hes taking bodybuilding and his diet. He left 10 minutes before me and as i was driving home i see him walking down the pathway puffin on a smoke lol.

Yeah while i dont really like smoking etc etc, i see what it has to do with BBing or Dieting, in fact in the years gone past i have actually heard of some bber's take up smoking during contest prep as it elevates heart rate and they believe helps drop BF....
This is seperate to all the other health issues associated with smoking.....

My home gym....
My husband wanted to start lifting weights. He hasn't done squats before so decided to train him today. Found mobility issues in his hips and shoulders, when I started showing him mobility stretches, he told me he doesn't want to waste time with that and he just wants to lift..... he changed his mind quite quickly when he realised he wasn't even mobile enough to hold the bar during a squat. So.... 1.5hrs later he got to do his first squat....

Haha sorry sounds quite comical though lol.
Heh, damn that ego, eh? 
Awesome that you've got the guy lifting though. Congrats, to you both. I got my girl picking up lumps of iron and putting them back down too - strangely, she's also finding this bizarre primitive practise addictive!
Great that squats are at or near the start of it all for him, as well.

My husband works FIFO so a routine is hard, but he has a start and hopefully I have ignited something in him!
