I was in Philly last November for work. I stayed in this old, fancy hotel downtown and it had a huge gym attached to it. It was on top of the parkade, but wow...it had a lot of gear. Mainly fancy cardio stuff, but it also had a basketball court and well, heck...lots of stuff. Not hard core by any means, but a very fancy gym. Just can't recall the name of it.

I'm from Mayfair in NE Philly. I used to drive to this gym in Feasterville PA. Its up Bustleton Ave. From Mayfair its about 10 minutes. Place is in a back alleyway. A former Mr.Universe owns it. It's a total dungeon. Place is called..... well now I can't remember. There is a Supermarket on the corner of Street road and Bustleton. Its behind the supermarket in the alley. It's basically in the basement of the supermarket.

Maybe someone on here knows what the place is called. My mind is shot right now. But it was a hardcore place when I used to go.

There you go. I used to go to the fucking place and couldn't remember what it was called. I kept thinking "longs" but I knew thats just what I called it. I forgot if it was actually called Long's or not.

Anyways when I went the rates were damn cheap and the hours were pretty good. The reason I say, "When I went" is because as most of us know, gyms can go to shit in no time flat. You can go to a hardcore place, leave for a year and come back and the place is filled with spandex bodysuit wearing steppersizer "dudes".

Greg Long's, Body World and Fit Gym in Philly are no doubt three of the best. Legit ABC gyms that I would recommend to anybody who takes their training seriously.

Peace, G
