I belonged to Golds for a long time. It was the cleanest and the best, however it was $45/month. Now I belong to World Gym (formally Planet Fitness). They have two specials that run all the time. $1 down and unlimited for $9.99/month or (the pkg I have) $19.99/ month unlimited w/ free tanning and I can bring a friend anytime for free. The real reason why I chose World is because they are open 24/7 and it fits into my schedule.

Unfortunately membership fees vary considerably depending on where you go, and not always because one is nicer. I'm a member at two gyms, Just Fitness and Core Fitness Center. The Core Fitness center membership is $30/month and Just Fitness is $10/month. Just fitness is bigger, nicer, and way cheaper. Wierd.

L|A|Fitness...got it for $30/month (no contract) with a $49 initiation fee. We play a lot of racquetball, and not all gym brands have them.

well I've been doing this for a while, i bought me a squat rack... only problem is i cant really max out or lift much without a spotter. i have buddy from HS who weighed 230, and is down to 195 and is going to a local gym and wants to 'swole' up now. I'm trying to get motivated again so i bought some powder protein @ GNC.

 

trying to invest a little to get me to commit for good.

Ive been on a few suppliments for a few months now. If you want to really commit yourself, get a bottle of USP Labs "Prime" and a container of N.O.Xplode for pre-workout. Your 30 day transition will seriously amaze you. :cheers:

do what you can as far as weight while alone and sooner or later you won't need a spotter lol...p.s whey protein and creatine is the way to go, make sure you eat right also...and drink water unless your want the creatine to make you sick, 1g of whey were pound you want to weigh..if you take whey and don't work out it will become sludge on your body..be very careful with what anabolic shit you get into, i've had bad experiences with sickness and extremely short tempers because of that shit...theres really no replacement for just doing the work without good ol water and meat...

      Joke Thread

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Fred was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young pullets, and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced. This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing. Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells. Fred's favourite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but this morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all! When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. To Fred's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one. Fred was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the City Show and he became an overnight sensation among the judges. The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize," but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well. Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention. Vote carefully in the next election, you can't always hear the bells.

      High Country Suburban build confirmation

      By 3CarSeatDad · Posted

      Can someone confirm if the GM order workbench terminal is able to validate a custom build sequence:   1) Initialize the Allocation Base: Open a new vehicle build queue, select the 2026 Chevrolet Suburban 4WD, and pick the High Country (3LZ Preferred Equipment Group).   2) Select the Diesel Powertrain: Go directly to the engine configuration screen and choose RPO code LZ0 (3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel). Ensure it maps to the MHS 10-speed automatic transmission.   3) Deploy the Seating Swap: Navigate to the Interior Options screen and enter RPO code ATT to replace the standard captain's chairs with the power-release 60/40 bench seat. Because you are not trying to force a separate luxury or air-suspension bundle, the standard, premium D07 Fixed Floor Console remains active. The system will accept this change immediately without triggering a warning message.   3)Apply Heavy-Duty Hauling Capability: Input RPO code NHT (Max Trailering Package). The commercial terminal will automatically bundle the required trailering hardware and software modules to support the diesel engine's maximum towing capacity.   5) Layer the Premium Tech and Glass: Separately add code C3U (Panoramic Power Sunroof) and code UKL (Super Cruise) to the order screen.   6) Run the Final Validation: Click the "Validate Order" button at the bottom of the interface.

      Looking at ordering a '26 WT because I want a std cab, std bed

      By revmanii · Posted

      Spent the last hour or 2 googling and reading up on the spacer thing. I don't like the loss of thread contact on the slip on spacers, but it appears you can get "extended" lug nuts that reach into the hole of the wheel to get back the lost threads. Looks like the only true hubcentric slip on spacers are at least .375". I'd want as little as I could get away with and don't want to cause other clearance issues going any thicker. Bora seems to offer what appears to be a well made .375" spacer and extended lug nuts. I searched here and did find a couple threads recommending Bora. But not cheap. By the time I buy spacers and lugs, new TPMS sensors, then pay a tire shop to install the new sensors, I suspect I'm going to be in over $400. Thinking about running out and getting some washers to put behind the wheel to see if .375" is enough to clear calipers, turn lock to lock without rubbing, and to see if the wheels/tires look strange pushed out a little. This would just be to check fitment.

      Road Master Active Suspension

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      Roadmaster makes some quality parts; I have their sway bar. I considered the RAS, but I ended up bagging. I didn't know what kind of ride I'd get with RAS, and the bags have interior jounce bumpers, so I can run 0 pounds pressure. I figured I'd have the best of normal suspension ride with assist on-demand. But it seems you got pretty much the same in one item.
