Excellent article! I am a little south of you in the Concord/Kannapolis NC area. Got any connections on a good Hardcore gym in my area...cant seem to find anything but crossfit and an Olympic lifting gym.

Carl, look up "Chuck's Barbell" on facebook. They're about 40 min north of downtown Charlotte. Best of luck in your training!

I believe there is a group down that way called The Silverback Crew who might be able to get you some leads. Best of luck.
