Weight Rooms

[shafter9]

I think that Prestonsburg has a state of the art weight room?? Who else has a really nice weight room??

[Beef]

I think that Ashland just got a new one and it is REALLY nice!

[SW81]

Southwestern has always had a nice facility... but it doesnt matter what type of weight room you have, its the size of heart your players have!

Yes, Ashland always in the past has had one of the best high school weight rooms I've known of. Over the years, we've consistently kept bringing in new and better equipment. This particular past season, due to a generous private donation to the team, an ALL BRAND NEW weightroom was able to be installed. I still haven't seen it, but from what I've been told, it's amazing. I'm sure some of the younger Tomcats on the board can fill in the details.

Yes, it's quite an amazing weight room. Over $30,000 was spent on the new equipment we got. We got rid of some of the old weight room equipment, which was much needed. We got new dumbbells, weights, bars, benches, leg press machines, and a couple ab machines as well. Some of that money was also spent on the locker room, which was completely remodeled. New carpet was put in, and new lockers were put in as well.

prestonsburg got a new weight room about 3 years ago and in 04 it was fitted with 10 custom power racks that are red and black with prestonsburg football stiched into ever bench and new leg press. they also go new rubber plates, bars, 3 glute ham machines, 2 lat pullmachines and a squat machine all red and black. it is really nice.

[mxracer6]

[unda-taka]

Hazard has a pretty desecent one, i mean it aint nuttin to be embarrassed about, it aint no state of the art weight room or ne thing like that but hey they get strong and they respect it so it works for them

[45countertrap]

[RayRay]

By the way those "ab machines" are glute-ham machines ATCAT06

[bigdog33]

SFHS has an alright weight room

I think it was more in the $45,000 range!

[AshlandTcat06]

Might have been. I know it was at least $30,000.

[Tomcat Alumni]

Might have been. I know it was at least $30,000.

Either way, its top notch, coach hart (who was a former EKU coach) said its comparable to most college facilities!!:thumb:

[Dont Take It Away!]

wow

[ComeGetSome]

I heard that Scott County has a really nice weight room! any one seen it?

[Sony33]

Pburgs is awesome!

[justinitra]

south laurel has a pretty good weight room

[throw deep]

Here are some of Belfry's weight room. The rubber floor is set to be put down after holiday break.

[Batpuff]

If you want to check out a nice weight room check out LC, It looks a little like Belfrys with the way the weights are lined up but, its big enough to practice inside out of the weather if the choose, it has a batting net that dropps down from above for the baseball team and soft ball team, has public restrooms and consecions for the baseball games, just really nice.

Would LOVE to see pictures of THIS place...as well as Pburg's.

By the way, what kind of facilities do they have at Pikeville? How does it compare to Paintsville's "tin-can?" (Also, would be good for people to see Painstville's if anybody out there has pics of it. Pretty unique place.)

[Tampa2]

What about JCHS weight room?

[Batpuff]

well here is a picture of the outside to lazy to get out of car and go inside

[PHSFAN]

Pikeville has a very nice weightroom and they are getting all new equipment very soon. For anyone that knows how the Pikeville weightroom is set up...it is going to be expanded in the next few years. It will be a 2 story facility..the top floor will be the current weightroom looking out over the gym and that will stay as the weightroom. Supposely there are plans to make a "cardio room" underneath the current weightroom.

[Tampa2]

that sounds like something that will benefit all PHS athletes!!

[ShakeandBake]

SFHS weigh room sucks

[HIT ME]

What about JCHS weight room?


Good question.

[Smokey]

PCs weight room sucks.....it looks like a dungeon.

[Football24_7]

PCs weight room sucks.....it looks like a dungeon.

(I thought everything at PC was fairly new and well-done???)

Besides, it doesn't matter as much what it LOOKS like as what's IN it and what gets DONE with what's in it!

Take that dungeon and take PRIDE in the fact that it's "one-of-a-kind!" Get t-shirts about how much BETTER you'll be than your opponents because you've had to work in a DUNGEON and they get all the nice fancy-pants stuff donated by XYZ company.

Use it to your ADVANTAGE! Don't complain about it.

Just my 2 cents.

[i-dono]

I agree PHSFAN...Pikeville does have a nice weight room.

Not to down anyone,but there isn't one weight room this side of lexington that compairs to that of the Grundy, VA Golden Wave!...there weight room could pass for a D-3, or D-2 room! IMO anyone else that has seen it will agree.

Here are some of Belfry's weight room. The rubber floor is set to be put down after holiday break.

very nice indeed

[Fuzzy5118]

Pikeville's WR improvement plans are rumored to be great! The new equipment alone sounds awesome. I've heard, "If you build it, they will come".

[OLINEGUY]

Knox Central is raising money to build a new wr and indoor practice facility. Look for another team in that district to do the same, very soon.

[BruteForce01]

Sf's got a new paint job and i hope we get some new equipment but we are going to have to start winnin to get that!!! And dont post in any smart remarks to that either

[Dont Take It Away!]

ive saw several weight rooms and most are bout the same i think corbins is one of the best but i just couldnt beleive how bad johnson centrals was compared to there school wow.

[Smokey]

Oh I used it everyday 24 7, and we actually joked about it and did have a shirt about it. I just say it sucks b/c it is small, and when we get new equipment we have to take stuff out. It causes people to take a lot longer to work out.

[Tough Turf]

who knows about JCHS's weight room?

[t-cat07]

ashlands weightrooom has a really impressive. it impressed Arliss Beach when he came to see it.

[Degree]

Paintsville isnt the best but it will do.

[Layup Wizard]

Belfry Middle School has a tremendous weight room, needless to say it is probably the best one for the middle school age. I have recently been in there and 75 kids could easily work out without much congestion. Actually around 50 kids were working out when I did see it. They even have enough room to do cone drills and agilities. Tremendous facility for a middle school program.

Knox Central is raising money to build a new wr and indoor practice facility. Look for another team in that district to do the same, very soon.
Would that team be Clay??? I sure hope so. Things in Clay are starting to change and football will more than likely pass up basketball before too long.

[PantherPride68]

SFHS weigh room sucksHoly Crap! somebody actually said something bad about south floyd on BGR somebody get a rope and find a tall tree LOL!j/k

[PantherPride68]

Pikeville's WR improvement plans are rumored to be great! The new equipment alone sounds awesome. I've heard, "If you build it, they will come".Its no rumor one of the coaches told me that the board already approved the expansion.

[OU_Bruiser]

South Floyd needs a new weight room at there new feild it was suppose to happen when the feild was built bu never did and probly want because there all about basketball.....

[maroon76]

Of What Ive Been Told By The Young People This Is More Impressivie Than The Ashland Y M C A State Of The Art' Adults Have Told Us It Has More To Offer Than Small Colleges. Get Ir Done

[HawkNation]

i was in the weight room over at central monday... i saw 4 players bench at least 10 lbs over 200... keep in mind there were only 5 players in the class

[brotherinarms]

JCs is pretty nice it has enough room and equipment for every1 with 2 leg press sleds,8 bench and squat racks plus the building was just rennovated so one room is very new. Overall JC has a great facility to lift in
