Does anyone know of a gym that will allow you to do powerlifting in the penninsula area of CA. I have moved here and just last Saturday got accosted at the Mountain View Golds for Deadlifting. This little girl from behind the desk approached me, she looked like she has never lifted more than a 2.5 lbs dumbell in her life, and told me that my weights were hitting the ground too hard and making too much noise. I explained to her that there are 10 plates on the bar and that all those plates rubbing are going to account for half that noise. Regardless, that I was controlling the weight and touching the floor as softly as I can possibly drop that amount of weight. She didn't care and said that I could not do it any longer. It is sad what has happened to Gold's Gym. That particular franchise should not be able to hang that name on top of its doors. So that said can anyone help me out on this one? Al
