There are stairs that lead to an area set for floor/warm up excircise. The 'core' warm up mates available look very old and warn - and needs updating.
Although the machines are all clustard close together, there is enough room to easily move between them.
Finally l liked the water fountain in between both changing rooms, however there is a high step going down onto main floor, with really should have yellow guide tape along the edge. As it is easy to trip up/down if you are not expecting it.
Wanna give a big shout to one of the trainers Harold, absolutely class worker
While some people may think that the gym is limited, I think that with the amount you pay per month for the basic membership, you get more than any other gym in the UK. Basically, you get what you pay for.
The equipment is good enough for what we’re doing. It’s sad that they got rid of the seated calf raise machine and would be good to have an incline barbell bench press as well as a seated shoulder press bar. At the moment, I’m using dumbbells to do those two exercises.
Keep in mind that the handles of the machines are slightly thicker than what you may expect from another gym. While in pushing exercises this doesn’t really matter, but in pulling exercises like the Lat Pulldown, you may see a slight discomfort but as your grip strengthens, you’ll get more comfortable.
The classes are alright too. We tried a few so far and while we enjoyed them, I think it would be better if there were harder classes for abs and more classes throughout the week. Other than that, we’re are pretty happy with what we have.
There’s a body composition scale too, which you can use once a month for free with the basic membership, something I haven’t seen from another gym gym I used to go in my uni.
Overall, I’m pretty happy with everything so far. We will keep going to this gym for as long as we stay in the UK. Glad that the Gym operates in this area.
starting point this offering not so expensive-monthly-contract gym. There is free parking for the first hour but make sure you enter your number plate for anything longer. During the day hours, there a few gym instructors available. Thee is optimal extra for the membership and can check it via your pin or phone as well. Gym equipment is of decent standard
