They recently announced they will be closed 4 days during Christmas and their reason is the gym nemebers should take the opportunity to bulk up! Not sure which kid said that but let me tell you when bulking up you need to train hard too! The gym will be re-open on the 28 December but will only open 1pm-9pm then close again on 31 December and 1st January!!
Aso there are only 7 cardio machines upstairs and most of them don't function properly. Some of the personal trainers obviously inexperienced with compound lifts. One of them couldn't even deadlift properly- I saw one of them bent his arms when deadlifting. I thought as a personal trainers he should know that deadlifting with arms bent can cause bicep tear, it's common knowledge. He couldn't even do lat pull downs right. It only take a few months to become a personal trainers so don't expect all personal trainers are expert in fact many of them have no idea what they are doing.
The advices written in the gym was ridiculous lol I'd suggest you do your own research instead of taking their laughable advice (it sounds like it was written from someone inexperience and obviously too lazy to do proper research before putting it there) There are Loads of great training and nutrition advice online you just need to find good reputation authors/coaches.
Had enough of this gym we will join a 24/7 gym next week.
