Many of us have gym membership or attend classes at a local gym on a frequent basis: in America, gyms are a $700 million industry, and it’s estimated that 12% of the population regularly attend the gym.
But fifty years ago, gyms as we know them today just didn’t exist.
So how did we get to where we are today – and what “dos” and “don’ts” can we pick up from the past?

There is no place worth going that requires a shortcut.

Most everyone agrees that a wide, thick back will form an aesthetic, 3-dimensional type of physique that will turn heads. And yet, the back remains one of the most neglected male body parts.
Nothing beats the deadlift when it comes to thickening the back, but I want to focus on a key exercise that most of you are likely avoiding: the pull-up.

I have received an email from an employee at a Tennessee LA Weight Loss Center in regards to centers closing in her area shortly. If you are a member of one of the centers in Memphis, Germantown or Bartlett TN, you need to get a refund. At least attempt to get your money back. They are closing in a matter of weeks.
She states Germantown and Memphis LA Weightloss Centers are still running commercials to sign people up, knowing they are closing in a few weeks. She states that if you are presently a member, you should already notice that all the counselors are gone. They got rid of everyone of them because they didn’t want them to tell any of the clients the Centers were closing.
