    That's nice af. That's what I wanna open around here. Dude stole my idea, lol, at 2:32. The big bay doors. That was always something I wanted to do. When it's nice out, you can incorporate outdoors with the weights for walking lunges or whatever they wanted.

    Too bad I live on the opposite side of the country as you do.

    Sadly enough, the best gym that was around me was closed down when I went to college. Pure old school. Still had machines from the 70's and 80's. Nautilus Lat pullover machine was one of them! No one went there except old guys with feathered mullets and tube socks, but those bastards could lift! Gave me that foundation for hard and heavy, iron blood sweat tears and more blood type lifting. Still have to find a solid gym here in Memphis.

    Y'know I've heard of Wright, but can't say I've heard of Rubish but does sound familiar.

    I'm gonna have to come up there one day Sean!

    Here's my iron temple. Lots of racks and the barbells, kettle bells, etc are on the inside of the container. There is a much larger indoor gym in the building on the right, but I love working out outdoors image.jpg

    So a 5 level for civilians? Pretty sure there's a Raytheon right outside Kirtland in NM

    If it's anything close to the Air Force, then you're telling grown ass men how the suck at cleaning their rooms because mommy always did it for them. I supervise some airmen in the dorms and it's ridiculous how some of them live

    I'm a Guidance and Controls Journeyman (not a nonner) for the US Air Force. I love what I do, just not always for big blue. In school for biology now and I'll get my licenses for the civilian sector before I get out in case the whole science thing doesn't work out.

    Nice! Specifically I work with a line of automated machines that create "on demand packaging." We are involved with pretty much any industry that might use or need a boc. One of the Project Managers @ Hunter Douglas was named Brian. For a minute I thought we may have worked together all last week.

    Retired after 35 years in Fed Law Enforcement. Loving life in the foot hills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
    One of my many other retirement passions - riding my Bimmer year round where the Bison still roam.
    So work hard, save, plan, prepare and RETIRE as young as you can. It's incredible.

    Still a lot of large coal burning facilities out west to my knowledge, I'm hoping to make a jump and move out west once I finish my training program and make CRO. I'm sick of the East...
