Topic: Weightlifting in Bend, OR and Salt Lake City

[Ryan Bader]

Howdy,

I'm traveling from Seattle to stay with inlaws in Bend OR during Labor Day weekend.  So, I'm looking for a place where I can get some lifts in.  Do any of you, or know of anyone, where I could get some olympic lifts in?

I've been to the Golds Gym there a few years ago.  They only had metal plates.  If all else fails, I'll just go there and do some Squats and Pulls.

I'm then going to Utah.  I could stop in Salt Lake City for another workout coming into Utah, and then leaving Utah the next weekend.  Anyone know of a place I could lift at there as well?

Thanks everyone!

Look up Ripped Fitness in Salt Lake City.  There are private gyms but this is the only commercial gym that has bumpers.

Thanks for the info on Salt Lake... I'll check it out.

Hey RR!!

Best place to train in SLC (unless you can come down to Provo) is the Praxis gym at about 8000 So. and 700 Ea.

Good bars and bumpers, good folks to lift w/ -- newly registered, so USAW should have contact info.

Dave Turner's Hercules club is just a few blocks away, but may not be as available.

Happy hoisting!!
