there are no barbells! they have a smith machine squat rack a few benches, and a couple of sets of dumbbells (i should've checked how much they went up to)... what should i do? will i be able to survive a year of just training with dumbbells? oh i wish i bought my ross enamait infinite intensity book with me to Japan
ahahhaa i'll be uber badass if i walked 20 minutes to the gym with a barbell over my shoulders. i might even be a "disturbance to the neighborhood". i shall check out another gym i heard about thats located in the city about 10 minutes by train. chaser t. what photos?
Thats what you get for going out to bumfuck nowhere. There are probably some hardcore gyms out there, few and far between, but there. Get a Japanese friend to help you do a google search, use keywords like ボデイービル、パワーリフテイング、 and 筋肉トレーニング。
