Praise the lord - the air conditioning is working properly again.:D

Thank god for that!

It was like an oven in there lately!!

has anyoen got any expereinces of this place?
can they tell the price of membership ?

I know its nto the best gym around but location is everything and it would allow me to use other gyms around the country....talking of that does anyone know of any otehr 'chains' that are in sheff and over the north side of the city ?

well if its anything like the millhouses one it doesnt have a pool, it has a sauna and steam, studio room and a big gym its one of the cheaper gyms around and they do lots of offers, it also has dvd rentel :-)

I train there most days and the Millhouses branch on Sunday's.

It's got everything you need for the reasonable price of around £33(?)/month - cheaper is you go in the daytime only.

It's not quite as good as Millhouses for the cardio machines but the resistance machines and free weights are much better IMO.

Go have a look, someone will show you around.

Also haggle....see this (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=58277&highlight=fitness+first) thread!!

:thumbsup:

26.50 a month with everything thrown in.

personal trainer will be provided.

I got it for £20 quid a month anytime, they pestered me for a month and half though

Me too Criag7777....;)

Worth the haggling and hanging back eh!! :thumbsup:

They call it 'Associateship' rather than 'Membership'...My sister was gutted....she pays something like £33 a month a full £13 more than me!!

:D

what do you get with the assciateship ? do you get all normal privleages ? i.e. use other fitness firsts ? use the gym at any time ?

Yes everything as per normal membership with extras

Free PT sessions x 3
Free joining pack (sports bag, headphones etc)
Discounted monthly fee
and only a 3/4 month contract (normal membership has a 12 mth minimum contract)

:thumbsup:

so you got the associateship via haggling nothing else ?

I went on to there website and there was something that says 1 day pass anyway i signed up for that then they rang me and said they no longer do that anymore but they could sort me deal out, first time they said they could sort me loads of personal sessions out then they offered it me cheaper this carried on each weekend till i said yeah i will take it
i was happy with what they offered me
just keep saying you are intrested but the fact they haven't got a pool puts you off
keep doing this for a few months and they will probably pay you for going

LOL , will do cheers

Its a crying shame about the lack of pool

Otherwise I think its cool - kinda pining for Virgin active but this is loads cheaper and 2 mins from my house. I also use the one in Huddersfield on the way back from work in t'week.

If they had a punchbag and a pool Id be laffin :hihi:

do u not think the gym is intimidating, and where are the gym instructors, personal trainers are everywhere..

I don't find the gym intimidating even though i'm a skinny runt i go to the millhouses one though
just think to yourself they have probably been doing it for the last 20 years while we have been out enjoying ourselfs drinking till we pass out and eating junk food
plus did you know 1 of the main reasons for people joining a gym in there 30's is cause they were bullyied at school
I can remember reading that in a mens health magazine or somewhere
:thumbsup:
