Okay this is my first post here although I've been visiting for a good while. I will be posting progression pictures sometime in the future but this post is basically to show you guys were I have the pleasure to work out at. I go to school at the University of South Carolina in Columbia, SC and last year our brand new state of the art Wellness and Fitness Center opened. It was named after the late Strom Thurmond, who recently passed away, and is a great thing to look at it- it's enormous. If you are ever nearby Columbia, I encourage you to look at it. Go to the site and click on the links to the left to look at photos inside and out or the floorplans and what not. This place sports an 18,000 sq ft weight room alone! :tucool:

thats a damn nice gym! is it crowded? im surprised they arent open 24x7. the outside curvey elevated running track is a neat touch, the cardio deck looks awesome, and the facility looks VERY clean! i especially like the weight plates with the holes in them :: http://stc.sc.edu/pictures/images/wP1010054.JPGvery cool facility man, top notch! :tucool: :tucool: :tucool:

boy... makes my Y look like a real dump!! :) Very nice facilities!

Same here :( The gym I go to has all the equipment I need but it just isnt big enough. If you go during peak periods you have to wait to use certain peices of equipment and than really gets me angry.

thanks for posting that, not :( :D
