The Lamar Community Center has hands down the finest rec center weight room I have ever been in.  It felt like a flashback to high school with a decrepit squat rack, old hack squat, bench press, incline press, smith machine, cable crossover, calf machine and other benches throughout the room.

All of the plates were old school iron that had been painted more than once.  There was a chalk "pitcher" in one corner.  In addition to standard Olympic bars and curl bars, I was amazed to see a cambered bar.  I had to use and it feels very different.

The cardio room is pretty typical and has selectorized machines.

The basketball court was by far my favorite.  Despite having a horrible shot, I am glad I grabbed a basketball and shot around a little bit.

Best part is that drop in entry was $3!
