Fitness First, Edinburgh

I found out about fitness first when I was searching the Internet for fitness clubs in my area. The club sounded really good, as well as the gym they ran fitness classes including Pilates and Yoga, had a Spa area and a members only video club. They were offering a free day to one of their fitness clubs, so I thought 'why not' and registered my details. A few days later I was called by the Edinburgh Club and asked if I would like to make an appointment ...
...joining (Which there was absolutely no chance of).
Fitness First's logo is that they bring fitness at an affordable price, I don't think so, for £39 a month you don't get much for your money, it's worth paying a few pound extra to join a decent gym.

A few days later I was called by the Edinburgh Club and asked if I would like to make an appointment to have a tour of the gym and use the facilities.
Upon arrival the place was crowded and 'Simon' whom I had an appointment with was already with a client. After waiting 10 minutes a girl from reception showed me around the maze like layout of the place.
The Jacuzzi was tiny, there was no pool and the whole place smelt damp and looked shabby. At the end of my tour she then proceeded to bully me into joining (Which there was absolutely no chance of).
