I started working for John back in 1989 after I moved from California. After leaving the Air Force. I read a review earlier of some person saying John was pushing steroids and Jesus. FIRST. John, kicked people out of the gym who used steroids when I worked there. SECOND. As far as religion is concerned, John wanted people with values in the gym. He was a person who believed that a person with morals is a person you could count on when your back was turned. When he hired me, he said, "Yes, you have all the skills needed for this job, but given you were in the Air Force you have the discipline and and values of helping people in need and that are the people I want working in this club.
As I got to know the other staff and the other members of the club, You could really tell, it was a family.
The person earlier with no values, who took a shot at John, is simply that, a person of no values. John simply believed in people, and felt. If you had faith or a strong set of values, than you had a base in which to believe in. A house built on stone can not be moved by the wind. But a built on sand it is trouble.
Peace and Blessings to you all. Stay safe and Happy Holidays.
John black no longer has this facility and thank God as he pushed and promoted steroids to all the young lifters and always was involved in some type of bs Jesus or church scam to make money . Basically anything but work for a living. Truly a Con Man
John Black was one of the primer power lifters in the U.S. if not the world! The facility has been in this location for a long time and it a fixture in the community. I will definitely recommend them to people I know. They don't suggest that anyone buy something that wasn't necessary, and never pressured me in all the time I visited there. They were always very considerate and professional. Their primary concern is what's best for me, and they only give me the advice that would benefit me the most. The gym equipment is well-maintained. This a serious workout facility! John's an awesome individual and is a blessing to theveryone he meets!
