Every single gym I've been to here sucks. Evidently there's one gym that's awesome, but it's been closed for renovations since before I PCS'd here. There's a crossfit-style gym in the location where they do combatives that I'm hoping to use, since they have bounce plates and other good stuff, but I mostly just train at home.

There are a few small gyms that are all terrible. A bench, a smith machine, and a dozen single use machines do not a good gym make. If there's no where to do deadlifts and not a single squat rack, no one is getting strong.
