Just for the record, I would like to state a couple of things: \n\nFirst...I am a Physiotherapist. \n\nSecond...I hate going to the gym! \n\nHowever, at Christmas, a foolish notion overtook me and I signed up to run my first half marathon. Given my desire to finish this run, and not lose my hard-earned pennies (and dignity!), I felt it was necessary to put aside my hatred of gyms and start working out.\n\nMy flatmates use this gym and talked me into going. I certainly don't regret it!\n\nFor a joining fee of \u00a325 (and then \u00a318 a month, which you can leave at any time with no extra fee!), you get a massive gym, lots of machines and a variety of classes running every day. There are lovely big changing rooms with everything you need for post-workout showering/changing, and the best bit...it's open 24/7!\n\nYou get in using a PIN number and it's extremely secure. The staff are around pretty much all the time and, unlike the previous reviewer, I found them to be quite friendly. In addition to the smiles, they don't hassle you like a lot of gym instructors do (hence my hatred!) but are available should you require them.\n\nThere are plenty of hand sanitisers (although I saw very few folk actually using them!) and the staff will check people for not having a towel. Personally, I would rather people gave their seats a wee wipe down after using the equipment, and will not even ponder the alternative!\n\nAll told, I've enjoyed working out here and will continue to do so until such a time as I'm ready to run this pesky half-marathon...hopefully I'll live to tell the tale!
