TMPL Gym

The salt water pool is like a womb and my favorite place to think about whatever piece of writing I’m working on — or to think about nothing at all.

I might not be the target demographic for this gym, but it’s conveniently located. I love the swimming pool and it’s usually pretty empty in the middle of the day.

If you know, you know! Totally liberating queer gym with fabulous lighting!

It’s mostly my incredible trainer Sam Massey that I’ve been working with there for years! He makes me love this place where I’ve worked out so many times that helped me lose the weight!

I need my workouts to be as close to home as possible so I have fewer excuses not to go. TMPL is more or less in my building, so I have a hard time not going. It’s also really well equipped and well run. If I’ve gotta work out, this is the place.

Fitness is a must. May as well access the coolest gym in NYC.
