Finding the right "build body room"

Gyms and I have had a complicated relationship since I was a teenager. In high school, I discovered sports and the joys of weightlifting, and spent several years in a relatively buff state. (But a far, far cry from Arnold Schwarzeneggar, mind you.)

At my best, I could bench press a modest 100-plus kilograms using free weights.
