Powerlifting in Edmonton ?

[Talo]

Anyone here go to a powerlifting friendly gym in or around Edmonton ?

With the recent closure of ours , we / I did to find a place that I can get in some heavy work ( suited )a few times a month.

Not looking for world gym or goodlife , but somethng with a decent atmosphere and possibly some others that train hard be it strongman , bodybuilding or powerlifting .

Thanks.

Sucks that you don't live here, man; the Calgary chapter of GPC just moved into my gym in January and brought a monolift, benches, bars, and a couple world record holders with them.

[Talo]

Your breaking my heart right now. :D

5hrs is to far for me to drive ,errrr !

Will you be coming down to the Nationals in May ?

[AlladdinSane]

I should be there, if only to be a meet-bitch.

I workout in Edmonton and I cant find that gym your talking about. All the golds here are for the fashionable. The YMCA doesnt have big enough weights, club fit is wayyyyy to crowed with guidos, I workout at the University gym and thats only cause its free........ lemme know how the search goes

[Talo]

Will do . I was also thinking about going to the University to train because atleast they have a PL team / club .

I've heard good things about hardcore before. I've never been but alot of my friends say it's great.

I spend my days training down at Kinsmen.. usually not too busy and a cheap monthly cost of $52.

[Talo]

$52 a month I wouldn't call that cheap , but thanks for the info.

heh... well maybe not but you have access to swimming pools, tennis courts, indoor tracks ect... not bad I suppose.. if you use that part.
