Trying to find Body Building gym.

[Adam Pavis]

Hi im a 16 year old boy who is madly keen on body-building and wanting to enter competitions once my body is worthy hahaha. Im a bit stumped since im located in Auckland, ive tried Olympic pools gym and City Fitness but i havent really enjoyed them. Does anyone know of a gym where i could work with other bodybuilders and lots of free weights?

[Adam Pavis]

Hey Adam, welcome!

 

I'd have thought Grammar's own gym would be pretty awesome. Is it not?

[Adam Pavis]

Im not sure they would allow me to use the school gym for things such as body building since thats something im guessing they dont know much about. Thanks anyway guys.

sounds like a sauce thread to me.

 

you can bodybuild at any gym, theres no special equipment you need, you can use barbells/dumbells/machines, what kind of gym doesnt have one or two of these.

[Adam Pavis]

true thanks anyway to people who commented.

The teachers may not be able to offer much bodybuilding-specific advice, but that's where we come in. I can't see why they wouldn't allow you to train though.

 

But if you're really set on finding another gym... probably Les Mills Vic Park is the closest gym with a big "bodybuilder" scene. Otherwise you could try Health&Sports in Morningside - I've never been there, but I think I've heard it's a serious gym.

 

Personally though, I'd just try to train at school. It's probably going to have better equipment than many gyms, and it's a whole lot cheaper and easier. Train there during the week, then jump into Les Mills for a weekend session if you want some extra motivation and inspiration.

Not sure which suburb but Muscle and Fitness in Botany is by far the best. Moe trains there a few times, Kai grene visited, bloody chill back community (yes, an actuall community that can sell you rec drugs, interact, talk, be mates etc; not bewildered immigrants flipping out their cocks in changing rooms and staring at mirrors). The whole fking place will cheer you on if your going for a pr too, so lots of support as well, which I guess is what your looking for isn't it.

 

Maida gym pretty slick but shit benches also it's in avondale.
