My opinions have run their course Member 694, 3112 posts | City gym did ok but is a BB gym. Hardcore though. There's lougars in southsea which is decent. But... strength tec is the one mate. Other than that plenty of commercial gyms. | ||

True, but with Texas power bars and free chalk it is set up to do some good strengh training there. One of the owners has done some PL and few other PL train there. Off course strengthtec is the bizz and if your a SM and staying in the area get down there! | ||

Member 1819, 409 posts SQ 182.5, BP 150, DL 220552.5 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq | lol, cheers for the input lads. Ive worked away places and went to nearest commercial gym and if not membership they wanting a tenner plus twenty quid induction for a sesh! If im there through the week, anywhere thats handy with a barbell, squat rack and allow chalk will do. If there ova wkends i wont be passing up the chance to try strengthtec! | ||
