How Nice/Ghetto is Your Gym?

Last gym was ghetto as ****. Basically a tin shed. Small ring. A bunch of medicine balls and dead balls in the corner, half a dozen bags along one wall, a shelf full of shared gloves and pads. The coach would walk around with a cup of tea in one hand and a stop watch in the other shouting out instructions. Good place to train though, just a bunch of guys and kids working hard and loving the training.

Training at a new place now, pretty flash, new mats and shiny new equipment, but it's part of a mixed fitness centre, so they do crossfit, pole dancing and a few other things there. Huge floor space though, so there's plenty of room to do your own thing, and the conditioning options that are available are out of this world.

 

Sounds expensive. Gym where i train is around 70€/year.
Havent paid a cent yet tho and there are few others also who havent paid anything and they have been there almost two years.

Its part of bigger club and boxing is one subdivision, whole club is supported by the city mostly.

 

Call me a wuss, but I just wish there was air conditioning especially during summer.

Although, it probably works for guys cutting weight.

 

Sounds like the place I'm planning on going into. They also have judo, gracie jiujitsu and krav maga. It looks catered for yuppies, but I can't complain about the amenities. They even have towel service for christsakes.

 

My gym is pretty nice, has 10 heavy bags, 14 speed bags, 4 double end and a full sized ring but the only issue is the sparring gloves that we use are so worn down, the padding is so worn that if the guy hits hard enough you can almost feel his knuckles, I'd bring my own gloves but I don't them to have any advantage! But normally we don't spar full strength but once in a while you accidentally let one go. W

 

14 speed bags! Seriously, WTF!

 

It could be worse. Then again, it could be better.

 

I don´t know what you guys mean by "Ghetto".....but in comparison with my last gym, this one now is pretty good with more heavy bags and a big ring......

 

My old gym (This isn't me in vid ). The amount of nights i spent as a youth sweating in this place. I loved the smell of leather and the small ring. Intense training..
