Actually guys it's B T G and it stands for Bless The Gym

Yeah new gym because I'm moving in a new city closer to Montreal. Trying it for 1 months and I'll chose Once I come back from the Gymnastic camp (leaving for 3 weeks on august 4th)

Pros:
-Good music (Mostly metal and rocks playlists)
-Bodybuilding documentary like Pumping Iron playing non stop on the tv's
-Good ambiance for making prs really

-Cheap (300 a year)

Cons
-Lack place and bumpers for Olympic weightlifting (there are only 4 x 65 lbs big ass bumper plates lol and I use them for power clean atm)

the gym from the outside

There's free chalk here and it open from 6 am to 10 pm except week-ends (8-5).

Also looking at the Olympic lifting gym here. It's pretty small but it's only 200 a year (open only from 4-7 thought)

Yeah, i was kinda dissapointed at the 94's overall though, to bad Ivanov was lifting on painkillers, could've probably done way more otherwise.

First time doing farmers walks today. I fucking love this exercise.
Was completely wrecked from pushing/pulling a prowler before this, and doing sprints.

The weight is only 75kg (165lbs) per hand.

Enjoy!
