Mines free as I work for the gym I use

Depends what you want out of a gym mate tbh, do you want the weights, pool, steam rooms, saunas etc?

I found that the posh gyms are full of pretty boys who only train their biceps, abs and hair styles.

In the dungeon type gyms you meet the people who train hard and properly, old school dudes etc. This is where you can learn the stuff worth learning.

Mate you're training in a gym, if they think you're a tit for training on free weights then you don't wanna know what I think of those blokes who don't. Some lads that come down Fitness First are chavy or pretty boys and have absolutely no idea of what they're doing and just attempt to train for show

Prices at Fitness First range from £30 up to about £60 (this price is more for black labelled clubs eg. best of the best in the world)

Old school gym, recon'd machines and battered free weights.
£3 a day or £25 membership and £7 p/w

Did 2 days at a new 'modern' gym and hated it, full of posers who'll do 40 dumbell curls with hardly any weight and stand in the mirror for an hour checking their hair.

Old people that just sat on machines annoyed me too.

luckily i avoided paying both days
