>>40774258
I hear sometimes about the pure gyms in the cities. Someone said theirs had strong man equipment. Not sure if they were truthing like, but either way I hear they get better. Can't wait until I go to uni and catch a subscription to a proper one

>>40774307

it has two different free weights rooms with 2 benches in one and 2 in the other

one room was a lifting stage and olympic weights, really never expected it when i went

im not trying to shill pure gym is amazing, 24/7, no annoying staff to greet. just go through the doors and lift

Lad...
I really wanna try olympic weightlifting. Clarence and Klok have bretty gud aesthteics imo.
Pure has a really good business model though. As far as commercial gyms go they're super.

Do most British universities not have gyms you can use free of charge? Just curious milfag here

>>40774383

Usually they have this but it's only if you stay in their accommodation or some shit

if you go the uni i stil think its pretty cheap for a year membership

>>40772660
Puregym by any chance?

I'm Cheshire myself. Go to a tiny gym that's part of a hotel leisure centre.

Not the best equipped in the world, but always fucking empty so I get the run of the place. Only real downside compared to a "proper" gym is a Smith instead of a squat rack, but I hit 2pl8 on that alone, then went to a real gym with a mate, and could squat that with a free bar no issue.

Does the job anyway until I get a home gym setup.

NEVER GOING TO MAKE IT

Birmingham anyone?

I'm training for a marathon, so am quite skinny fat. Would be great to find a gym bro work with and get some good strength going.

Yeah, you're both probably going to change your schedules up so you never see each other again

This is literally what happened.

If you want your £20, I'm now over the road in tesco buying rubber johnnys and cut-price proton bars.

desu if it were me, since you're a 4channer I'd literally be 100% fine with talking to you because I know there is no way you can be a worse social autist than me

My guess is that one of you actually lifts and the other guy is dyel

Southampton here, sort of. Not a student but lift at the university gym.

6 racks, and there's almost always a wait.

Sorry, would cost me more in return train fare to collect.

Not like you'd show up anyway

I'm Birmingham, go to PureGym

But I'm too awkward to make new friends.

When's your marathon? Distance running and lifting don't really mix well.
