I was goin to a gym out in Freeport-Long Island,NY. Plan to start goin bac out there soon. Its mainly a gym for teens and youngins tho. Bout 25-30 mins from Rosedale Queens, NY(don't kno wat part of NYC ur from).

Thats the site I used to find 2 gyms so far. I live in Queens so I used to go to Envy Us Boxing and Fitness in Whitestone, but they closed down over some steriod scandal BS. ****** so much man I loved that gym! I get so sad when I think about it. Only paid $33 a month. I found another gym in Ridgewood but they charge $50 a month and I never found any sparing there which ****** and I couldn't use the weights at all, otherwise I'd have to spend like another $30. I'm gonna start looking for another one soon.

There are tons in Manhattan, some are really expensive though. But if you can, I'd join a PAL. They are definitely the cheapest and you can get a really good workout and sparring. Definitely look at that website.

I have never seen a boxing gym that looks like a gym from the outside.

Union City Boxing in NJ is in the back of a police station, next to Public Works.

Hey I think I've been there a few times with my uncle! They told me to come by more often so that I can spar but its so damned far from Queens that I can't make the drive out there very often. Sucks, as it is very cheap and you can get a great workout.

Hell yeah, that's where I learned how to box when I was younger! You know it's only $10 bucks a year or something, they have no overhead because they're a non-profit organization. Have you gone to the renovated one or the old one on 9th street?

Honestly I'm not sure. I should have paid closer attention when I went. My uncle drove so I had no idea where I was since I'm not from NJ. It was pretty much a sweat-box, hot as hell, with some serious people in it. I liked it a lot. I wish there were some close by where I live man, every gym I look at is like $100+ a month. It sucks.

It looked old, run down, smelled like stale urine and sweat and had one raggety ring at the bottom of a staircase?

That sounds about right lol. I went to another gym after that too a few times in NJ but I forgot where it was. A few of the fighters in there were competing in the Diamond Gloves, which I went to as well. I Actually met Lou Duva there and got his autograph!

Lou Duva is all over the place in the Paterson area. You were probably at Joe Griers or one of the PALs there. Jersey and NY have the best amateur programs I've seen, I've never seen guys with 200+ amateur fights as frequently as there.

blimey the gyms over in the states are expensive.

In my gym we paid £2 a session... This is just for overhead costs. Non-Profit. I didnt think many boxing gyms made profit.

Gleasons is damn expensive. To pay for a trainer is almost like paying rent. You might as well go to a PAL or local gym and get noticed in sparring and get a trainer that way.
