Brookfield, Ct. here. Started training in college at the Sacred Heart U. Weight Room Facility(i actually miss that gym...partially because it was free) Currently training at home on a machine that I've definitely Outgrown, waiting for the new U. of New Haven Sports complex to open so i can use that for my remaining trimesters as a grad student, and then hopefully either purchase a powertec multi station work bench from Dick's sporting goods in Milford (currently priced at $999.99 for the larger 8'X10' machine, not including weights) OR I hear that Powerhouse Gym of Brookfield may move right next door to where I work so I might Join that....
OH and Sportsplex in Bethel, Ct. is $79 a month...with a firefighter discount...they told me they'd drop it down to $74...
A lot of ups and downs since I left Undergrad in 2005 but i've been working hard to make some progress or at the very least maintain until i can get back to a real gym

Planet fitness sucks
Its a sissy gym that has pizza day. The machines suck and may break if you actually used them.....but you can try real hard to use them or the buzzer goes off on the wall if you exert yourself. I went there to do cardio a few times because its closer than my real gym to my work) I found myself embarrassed to be in there. Work out world kicks butt. It's huge, has everything (except the hack machne they replaced with a new one I dont like)

PF is horrible!! I stopped going there. I was going there soley because of the price, but now it's jsut not worth me not liking going there because of how bad it was. While I was going there I stopped lifting as hard and was more dependent on Machines then on free weights due to the lack of free weights. Now I go to L.A. Fitness .... There is a whole floor dedicated to free weights as well as a better atmosphere!
Costs a little extra but hey it's worth it when you can get in good workouts without bumping into people ... and see John Travolta working out there too!!!

If you like Chinese, go to Mr. Wok's. It's like $11-12 a person and they have a huge buffet (and crab legs!)

Good day to be bulking and working out! Just stay off the roads with all the snow.
How's your training coming along? Still targeting the Fitness Atlantic show? I'm working towards competing in April or May at one of the local area BLNPA shows. It'll be my first one, too.
Good luck! Anyone else from CT competing next year?

Wow, I haven't checked this thread in a while. It's awesome to see more CT rep here... even better yet there's someone from my town!!
I heard good things about Club but I've never been there. All my friends who did said it's overpriced. Plus too many Madison kids go there.  I go to the Gold's on the New/North Haven line now and can't imagine joining any other gym. The 30 min drive kinda stinks tho.
And you're not alone on wanting to leave. Most of suburban CT is really for families - as a young adult there's nothing to do outside of the short summers.
