    I'm sure you all saw how big Steve (owner of the iron sports gym) is right now haha. He's definitely not an "athlete in training". But if a gym is snobby enough to turn down a potential customer, I would say they are worse off than planet fitness. On a personal note, I hit a PR of 165lb snatch today.

    They worked mostly with NFL players and stuff. They were expensive too.

    But yeah, it was not nice. Oh well.

    Congrats on the snatch! That's awesome!

    If anyone here is seriously considering dedicating to olympic lifting (and yes it is a lot of dedication) here is some motivation. This is who I look up to. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KggMXR4B3A

    I can agree with this, but with an exception. If the gym has a strict training setup, and everyone there works with a trainer, then I could see them turning away someone who didn't have goals that matched the trainers' philosophies. It would be a waste of their time and your money to get involved with it.

    Congratulations on the snatch PR. :)
