That gym is the love of my life.
I discovered powerlifting there because the desk boy told me to check out t nation articles.

My son literally took his first steps in the childcare some 16 years ago, lol.
My heart is always there.

That's amazing!! How long have you been working out? Some of my best personal breakthroughs have been in the gym!

I've been working out since I was 16.
Two decades I guess, damn.
I should have made more progress by now when I put it like that, lol

Hahahah! Kinda ages us a bit doesn't it?? I started when I was 16 too but was on/off so many times I can't remember. That was 24 yrs ago....... However I'm grateful for the journey because it brought me to where I am and the new appreciation and love for the gym not only for the physical but more for the mental work you're able to accomplish

I left to come to shitty sherwood park, lol.

But then came back when I moved downtown and I swear it was the same people!
I felt like I was walking into a time capsule.
Ten years passed and the same dudes all say mornin' to me like we hadn't missed a beat hahha.
That's why I love it there.
No annoying music, people or selfie takers.
Just lifting with friendly folk
