As a diehard \"Gym Rat\" (you can tell from my extremely large head) and martial artist I have had the oppurtunity work and train in just about every type a facillity available. Max Fitness soon to be Powerhouse Gym takes me back to the days of Pumping Iron with Gov. Swarzeneger. It is very old school and very hardcore. The equipment is not the latest and greatest however, it is some of the best and they have a lot of it. What I found really cool is they have an area set up specifically for boxing. They have everything you need including a regulation ring and timer. Another interesting feature is the strongman area. I actually got to see World Strongman Kevin Knee Flippin 500lb tires with some of the biggest silverback guerillas in AZ. Fascinating to see in there natural habitat.\n\nPowerhouse is not a gym for everyone. The facillity is old and not very clean. The members are typically competetive bodybuilders, strongmen, and female fitness competitors. Don't get me wrong everyone was very friendly from the staff to the members. If you're looking for Disneyland go to Lifetime. If you want to kick your ass and sweat with the best this is the place for you.\n\nOne more point, the membership rep that helped me was a little on the pushy side. I don't like hard sales so this turned me off a bit.
