Like one of my coaches once said..."You can lift weights in a pro facility, or in a garage...if you work hard the results will be the same" As far as "high quality gyms" only thing I see differently is machines, because weights are weights.

golds and powerhouse for sure but flash is right, look at arnold and lou on early years dont tell me they were not getting great workouts!! iron is iron its what and how much you lift, dont forget intensity!!!

Thats what i'd say, based on that they usually are the gyms Ex-Pro's end up owning...so good advice available if your on a competitive route.
But I'd vote Metroflex since thats where the last 8 Mr. Olympia titles came from

Sup bro, I love going to the Athletic club in Boca when I am in town. Tons of milf's in there, and I Love having my car hand washed while I lift and play B ball. You ever been there?

i think lifetime fitness is the best ive been too...yeah its a pussy gym but they have endless machines and racks....3 squat racks, deadlift box, 5 leg press machines, 4 bench press, 3 incline bench press, only 1 decline though, probably 100 cardio machines, oh yeah they also have a hack squat...4 lat pulldowns as well...i could go on forever but yall get the idea.
