Foxy’s got bought out by some dudes who want to turn the club into a gymnastics facility for young girls. They’re going to fill in the indoor pool, move the free weight room (probably get rid of it) and basically force me out. The new owners swear I’ll still be able to lift, but I know the first time I get in a hard workout, the moms will complain and get me kicked out. Not to mention, I’m pretty sure they’re going to throw out the barbells.

Any recs on a new gym? I live in Mid-City Baton Rouge and work off of N. Airline. I need a place that will allow me to lift the way I do, bright and early and not be a trek every morning. Please halp. Please......

Does it have what I would need to do olympic and powerlifting exercises? Also, does it have a reverse hyper bench?

The UREC is awesome if you avoid peak times.

Why would you want to stay at a young girls gymnastics facility?
