Pleasant fitness club in manchester

Advantages: Plenty of equipment, classes, and a great view
Disadvantages: Cost, location depending on where you are

The Esporta at Salford Quays is probably one of the best in the Manchester area in terms of cleanliness, service, appearance, and equipment. It is lacking mainly in size of the pool, and perhaps location, but the location depends on where you live, so it may be very convenient! The fitness area includes two levels of machines for Cardio: stationary cycles, sitting cycles, rowing machines, treadmills, step machines, and a variety of other equipment ...
...machines, arm machines, and a variety of specialized equipment for hamstrings and tummy exercises. Free weights: all the necessary weights and bars you could need. Stretching/fitness ball area: a floorspace with area for stretching, using small freeweights, or fitness balls. Spin room: enough room for maybe 30 people (i.e. stationary spin cycles). Fitness hall: a large area for other aerobics classes. There is also a pool, separate changing ...

Review of Esporta Club, Manchester

Poor gym, poor value for money

Advantages: Steam room and sauna
Disadvantages: Untidy, broken equipment, bad air con, low powered sunbeds, no paper towels.

...to my final point, this fitness first give different people different membership prices for example they only give new offers to new members and dont give anything to existing members, all they offered me was £2 off if i resigned on a 12 month contract. Also they are sly with what each member pays for example i know people that are paying £28, £25, £22 and one person even £18 a month when all of they all have the same membership type. This sort of ...

Review of Fitness First, Moston, Manchester

Holmes Place Printworks Manchester

Advantages: Large gym, lots of good classes -RPM,BODYPUMP, friendly staff
Disadvantages: Takeover by Virgin, cutbacks have started e.g. towels, sweat-towels, classes

This was the best gym in Manchester and has great facilities and a good-sized pool. However, the takeover by Virgin Active looks set to take it downmarket. Stingy cutbacks such as removing sweat towels and only handing one bath-towel out are the start. There are fears that the Womens' Gym area is to go and that the classes will be reduced and use in-house formats instead of the excellent BodySystems training. Its a shame as there is now a major gap ...

Review of David Lloyd Clubs, Manchester

Don't join

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Facilities

...has meant that companies like LA Fitness continue to operate when they ought to shrivel up and dissappear. This club is awful! Showers are closed, though if you were to go inside them you would find broken floor tiles and a leaking roof. The exercise studio features a leaking roof and lots of 'feature' puddles that gym instrutors need to warn of, just in case a member falls. The club is like an unwanted puppy - neglected, tired and in need of some ...
...complete the much promised £1m refurbishment as its unusable at present. It's a shame as I have been a member for many years and used to love it - a really friendly and and intimate club, which under the 'new' ownership of LA Fitness has been run into the ground. ...
