NYdad,

If I could do that is what I would do. Make it into a mini father-son trip. I would make sure your son is up to the commitment as he has to get to the gym and put in the work. There are other options like Gym Jones below. Gym Jones is very highly regarded in some athletic circles but i am not sure about baseball specific.

I am not sure what part of NY you are in but there has to be tons of gyms in the area and again look for a old school power lifting type of gym. The key will be finding someone who can teach him Olympic Lifting technique's. That is the critical question to ask when you are looking and talking to people. A lot of "pretty people" gyms don't like the noise and dropping of bars after a 400lb dead lift. Look for a gym with a bunch of squat racks.

Good luck and let us know how it goes.
