Without the glowing neon light above the door, you’d never know it was there. In fact, you can only enter through the alley at 308 N. Ogden Drive. That’s right. DEUCE Backlot has a speakeasy serving muscle pumps and good vibes and it’s called Bodybuilding Club.
Inside you’ll find a revolution of sorts: inclusive, effective training with aesthetics in mind. Frankly, bodybuilding’s golden era is long gone. The scene has been dominated by headphones, steroids, spray tans, and isolation. The trouble, though, is that hypertrophy, the main training focus of bodybuilding, is important and effective. Most importantly, bodybuilding is for everyone.
Ben Smith and Homer Parkes are the minds behind both the methodology and (just as importantly) the vibe. And, we’re fortunate to bring this curriculum to the rest of the DEUCE community. Advantages to the program don’t just include simple, ridiculously effective strength and muscle gains. It’s also a way to get unlimited access to the gym!
Bodybuilding 101 is an 8-week course that is enrolling fast. The first enrollment will take place Monday and Wednesday at 3pm. Email ben@deucegym.com for details.
