Some of us are about "that life." The gym is a place get stronger or sometimes to relieve some stress. I can say that I have been to many bases and not all of them are created the same. By far I think the best gyms are on AF bases. Back when it was Pope AFB had the best gym in the Fort Bragg area. Another great one is at Fort Dix, or the AFB that is adjacent to Fort Dix really.

The gym at the base I am at currently feels a bit too cramped and some the equipment seems a bit odd. Mainly non-standard free weight stuff.

Where is the best gym you have been too? This way I can have at least a heads up were to hit up if I stop by.

Price Fitness Center at Presidio of Monterey was nice. I enjoyed the weight room a little too much. The cardio rooms were Ina different floor, so I was never even tempted to run! Lol

My personal favorite is the one on Eielson AFB. The one I'll remember most was the makeshift one we had going on in Azraq Jordan. We nicknamed it the prison gym

Agree with you here. The Air Force has to have this category on lockdown. One of my favorites was always Travis AFB. It had absolutely everything.

Bragg has a few nice gyms imo. Fort Stewart has one of the nicest gyms I've been in, on the 4BCT side. Fort Campbell's BCT gyms have everything you need - but tend to get crowded during certain times. My favorite gym though was on the USS Peleliu (LHA-5). The gym was all the way forward and looked like an old school iron gym that you would pay to be a member of - except you got the added benefit of the motion of the ocean in your workouts.

When I was stationed at Kadena I would typically go to Camp Foster's gym. Offutt has a pretty awesome one as long as air conditioning isn't a big deal to you!

Best weight Gym I have seen in 19 years was the Rak gym at Campbell after COL Steele fixed it.

I was really a fan of the Warrior Fitness Gym at Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas, NV.

The one at Del Din Caserma in Vicenza, Italy is pretty impressive as it's brand new. Indoor running track, combatives room, pool, even a rock climbing wall.
