  • Not a Happy Boxer

    I blogged recently about the sad state of the boxing room at my current gym.  It's a converted racquetball court.  The wooden blocks that make up the floor are coming loose or missing in spots.  There are no mirrors.  The punching dummy's nose is coming off and leaking stuffing.  And the heavy bag is crooked and held together by duct tape.

    Well, today when I went to do my boxing workout, the lights in the room weren't working either.  The room was dark.  I did my cardio (treadmill) and jump roping (in the other racquetball court) and sit ups (incline bench), but didn't get to punch anything.

    Which is additionally sucky because I bought new heavy bag gloves yesterday and hoped to use them.

    I'll be SO glad when Powerhouse opens.

  • that gym is a law suit waiting to happen.  talk about dangerous and lack of safety.  not to mention the distractions/obstacles keeping you from having a productive workout.

    sorry U had to endure that this morning.  when does Powerhouse open?

  • @five11nation -  I don't know when Powerhouse will be open.  It was originally supposed to open back in February, but had trouble with county permits and the building owner and loans and who knows what else... they keep saying it will be soon.

  • Sheesh, I'm sorry, just becareful, it doesn't sound as though the place is too safe.
