Where All the Muscle Queens Go to … “Workout”

davidbartonvid

If you’re a gay who works out in New York City, you’ll be shunned if you dare tell anyone you’re a member at New York Sports Club. How déclassé. If it’s not Chic-quinox, then David Barton Gym is your fitness home. Or, as its known to fans, Dolly Parton Gym.

The puffed up proprietor is expanding his Manhattan reign beyond Chelsea and the Upper East Side to Astor Place, which means there’s a terrific opportunity for New York‘s Tim Murphy to see the new digs — and the type of guys that go.

Or at least the type of abs that are expected.

In the steamroom.

(Thanks, Mike!)

i’ve been working out at NYSC before they became the Starbucks of NYC. When I started it was only 6 clubs.

I guess I’m declasse. But I do have the flexibility of going to a gym pretty much anywhere and almost at any time.

I used a one week membership to their Chelsea location. I felt like I was working out in a meatrack and not a gym. THe staff there clearly knows whatr goes on in the steam rooms as the guy was encouraging me to open the door and take alook inside.

I go to Gold’s Gym on 54th instead. It’s a gym where people go to work out – not to cruise.

@ChristopherJ:

In addition to the disco ball, I am sure there are some disco sticks to be had!
