Do you put your fitness first.
Advantages: Cheap, lots of different activities, and venues Disadvantages: sometimes busy.
...i have never been to fitness first i cannot comment on how they operate but as a fitness unlimited customer i can say the following.
Fitness Unlimited (Sheffield): Firstly I am the kind of person who has never done any exercise in my (adult) life. So the fact that I decided to join 'Fitness Unlimited' came as quite a shock to my closest friends and family. Fitness Unlimited is a way of joining four fitness centres in Sheffield: Ponds Forge, Hillsborough ... ...belonging to four centres may seem a little strange but in fact gives you the best of all worlds. As Ponds Forge is often used for national and international events, it allows you to use a different centre when their facilities are unavailable. It also means that they can provide a much wider range of activities throughout the consortium. Having so far only tried out the Ponds Forge sports centre, I can only talk about their facilities but I have ...

try to avoid this gym at all costs
Advantages: cheap drinks in the hilton and free breakfast Disadvantages: very dirty, out dated, poor management, poor class schedule
I have been a member of livingwell for approx 9 month now and I can't wait for my membership to expire so I can go to greens or virgin its that bad.
Where to start??????
Well The whole gym is very very dirty. The carpets have deep sweat and damp marks and the carpet leading to the gym area is very worn like most things in the place.
The equipment rarely gets cleaned and is old, dated and some rusty.
The towels provided for members are usually ... ...to clean the sinks in the toilets and use them (attached to a sweeping brush) to clean the sweaty floors in the studios and as sweat towels in the spinning classes. I have seen this happen frequently. The male changing rooms are filthy, the toilet walls are always dirty and the bottom of the doors are rotted. The ceilings are dirty and in the shower area they are falling in due to damp and rot. The tiles on the floor have ingrained dirt some cracked ...

A great club!
Advantages: Fab facilities and great staff Disadvantages: May be slightly out of the average persons budget
A great gym!
Yes it may seem a bit pricy but you pay for the great facilities, i have found that the gym is always clean and fresh and lovely and cold which is great when you've just spent 30 minutes on a cross trainer!, there is a great sized pool, with kids pool and spa, the changing rooms are always clean with complimentary products also another thing i like is nearly every time i visit i see a cleaner in the changing rooms, shower or toilet ... ...they are very willing to try and resolve any problems you may have and if they cannot they always pass the problem onto a manager, also they have a great childrens department, with an excellent creche and fab childrens timetable!
Would recommend this one to anyone interested in joining a premium health club! ...

Poor customer service from Head Office. Broken and cold showers
Advantages: variety of fitness classes, pool Disadvantages: lack of lockers, lack of usable showers, cramped fitness classes
...services, using all threatening manners to extract payment from you because they say you have signed an agreement, but then they themselves fail to fulfil their side of the agreement. I would not use this gym again and do not recommend the the London Wall branch of LA Fitness ...

Advantages: Good place to play tennis Disadvantages: The Members Relations Team are crooks!
REVIEW OF DAVID LLOYDS, CARDIFF
The club is best described as having two sides.
The Good:
A good quality club. Expensive, but great for tennis and very family friendly. The gym is very good and the cleanliness of the club is of a very good standard for the vast majority of the time. The tennis staff are great, very helpful, great fun and during my 7 years as a member I was always made very welcome, DML is a star. There are some pleasant members ... ...tennis leagues you will always have good people to play with at all levels. The bar and restaurant prices are a touch overpriced and portions sizes and quality can vary.
The bad
AND THIS OUGHT TO HAVE A WEALTH WARNING: The office staff, in charge of Membership Relations, are ruthless and to be frank; very very dishonest! The club ties the members into very long contracts and does not adhere to it’s own contract with regards to price increases (14a ...
