                if your looking to bench or do squats without a smith machine, then i dont recommend snap fitness (Its on 8th street? i havent been back for a while). Otherwise, i know concordia doesnt check for id as well since i worked out there for a bit.

                Im in virginia right now and there are golds gyms all over the place. now thats a gym

                  I was a member at the Y-west but no I go to courts plus, racquetball FTW. I live too far away from there now so when my contract is up, gym contracts FTL, I'll be joining the Y again.

                    You mean 2 125's right?

                    I am wierd, I can usually do just as much doing dumbbell presses as I can with bench presses. I think it has something to do with my freakishly long arms.

                      no 2 250s? 🙂 Isn't 125 the biggest dumbell most gyms have?

                      I'm pretty sure that just means you have both arms evenly worked. When I started lifting, I was told not to move to a bench press until i could pump both dumbells evenly, I never got there before I quit. but the dumbell presses worked the weak arm WAY more.

                        That IS weird. Most can lift 15, sometimes 20% more with a barbell bench than with dumbells....I'm one of them. My research has shown that stabilizer muscles come into play more with dumbells which don't tend to be necessary when barbell benching, and that's why most lift less with dumbells.

                        I quit doing barbell bench for about a year, concentrating strictly on dumbells (Bob Chicherillo workout) and my push-ups increased by almost 50%, but when I went back to the barbell, I found that max to have decreased.

                        So there's definitely a give-and-take. WAY off-topic, I know...but I'm bored, so what the hell 🙂

                          The y only has 125lb dumbells, for a few more weeks anyway. I cannot bench press 315 with a bar.

                            I didn't want to get into an e-dicklength contest nor did i want to front like i am the hottest sauce safe to pour or anything like that. I was just wondering if there was a gym where heavier benchers tended to congregate at.

                            There don't seem to be many meets in this part of the usa.. just a few down in minneapolis.

                            I figured if there was a gym where more serious benchers worked out that I might get the scoop on powerlifting meets in this area.. or maybe set something up locally. This is the midwest and we've got military bases near by, so it should be possible to get a good turnout of respectably strong guys.

                              if you want to congregate with some power lifters head to one of the college gyms and lift with their football team. those guys spend more time in the weight room than in the classroom.

                                Tru dat. When I was at NDSU I used to lift with the o-line guys at the BSA, they will work your ass into a coma.

                                  Bench press is usually one of the powerlifts left out, as no one usually has a respectable bench in the local area.

                                  As far as powerlifting comps go, the last one I was going to enter was in November, and would have been at the sports center. Most of the "big" guys go to sports center, or courts plus. They might have changed gyms since i checked last, as they tend to rotate to keep things fresh.I'd stop in and talk to the people at the sports center someone there should know where to send you.
