Which gym

Go to whatever gym you can do squats, deadlifts, bench and OHP

If the closer gym has barbell racks, a good selection of dumb bells, kettle bells, etc. and some treadmills and ellipticals, I'd go for the closer one. It's all you need. Mine's a national, commercial chain gym, but they've got all that, plus a pool and hot tub, all the idiotic zumba classes and what not. I can lift, find a spot to stretch, then go soak in the hot tub, dip in the pool, etc. It helps me recover easier to soak and dip, alternatively.

There are tons of people in there for gym selfies and other reasons besides working out seriously. Doesn't matter. Just means they get out of the way faster when they're on a spot you want and I'm not having to wait 45 minutes for serious lifters to get done on the barbells.

You want to be in an environment where people are bigger and stronger than you. It's motivational and will help you improve. And don't whine about people using drugs. I see that a lot on here: weak people who don't train hard bash any routine other than 5x5 as being only for people on steroids, and think it isn't possible to bench press 300 without using steroids. Don't become one of those people.

If you want the most out of your life and to live up to your potential as a man you Have to be able to be outside your comfort zone in order to grow.

Go to the first, be intimidated. The environment alone will force you to grow.

Heavy lifting. No one will care about your skinny ass, go there, work out, get out, repeat. Stop thinking about what people think of you and build yourself some discipline.

the one is the easiest to go to assuming it is equipped for SL. this will agevolate consistency

Are you on good terms with your ex? Otherwise, I'd say avoid that one, but you need to go somewhere where you have the tools to sculpt and bulk yourself, not focus on anyone else, and if you know the gym is full of juiceheads, then what's to be intimidated about? They're essentially cheating to get big. Put in the hard work without that shit, and you'll feel a million times better.

Plenty of guys on steroids at my gym. I'm not. They are twice my size. Nobody gives a shit. If you see the same people working out, week in week out, you'll earn respect for work ethic, not the size of your arms.
