    Rivers Edge doesn't have a squat rack I think, which rules it out for me :)

    Yes,,but a classic case of "You get what you paid for".
    The weights area is terrible,and so small your going to end up in a que if it's a busy period there.
    The equipment is so outdated,and frequently breaks down,and could be days before it's fixed.
