The Gym sounds kick ass.
They have a Full Olympic Barbell set! Do you know How RARE that is?!
Big Fear Though: They have no idea what they are talking about. Many gyms don't; let alone the 'trainers'.
They better mean:
- Olympic Bar, with appropriate knurling
- Allow CHALK . [I doubt it]
- Maybe a platform [Doubtful, But not nessessary if have the following]
- Bumper Plates. Can't O Lift without them, Would be impressed if they had them. Cost your arms and your legs, and few other body parts from some bystanders. Expensive stuff.
Tae Kwon Do:
Looks interesting...
Probably the only club i'd join if i'd join any. Simply for the fact that i did TKD for 5+ years. But have had a 2-3 year lay off... Would be interesting to see if i culd pick it up. Like riding a bike, eh?
if your interested in it, it is fun. Lotsa 'jumpy-spin-wacko-thunder-cresant-flyswatter-mega-kicks' and that jazz. Almost like acrobatics. If you want self-defence... give it another thought. Its a Martial SPORT, not Martial ART. Little practicality. [Fun though !]
