Life Fitness Fit Series Smith Machine

Advantages: Cheap, lots of different activities, and venues
Disadvantages: sometimes busy.

...As 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 and Don Valley stadium, not forgetting concord.

Advantages: Quick Work-Out, Cheaper than Power Plates, Great Results
Disadvantages: Only tones your body, doesnt keep you fit.

...can do wrong when using this machine its pretty self explanatory.

Overall Overall, i am very pleased with this machine, and would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to tone their body up, or even lose weight. I have all my family using it now, who's ages range from 21-61. This machine will not keep you fit, like going to the gym, but it will keep you nicely toned and can help you lose weight. Some Specs 1) Maximum power: 1.5HP 2) Power consumption: 200W 3) Speed range: 20 levels 4) Amplitude: 0 - 10mm 5) Frequency: 0 - 18rpm/s 6) User weight capability: 150kg 7) Assembly dimensions: 700 x 610 x 1,230mm When i bought this machine i paid £235...

Advantages: Good prices, good equipment, video library, free soft drinks and newspapers, free parking, women only gym
Disadvantages: Not central, need £1 for the lockers

...). What is not standard is that you need £1 to operate the lockers (this is refunded). Most other Fitness First lockers operate by inserting your membership card into a slot. The changing rooms are clean, and the lockers are an adequate size. There are two sets of showers, with free shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. There are also hairdryers and large mirrors. There is a private changing cubicle for the bashful. On the gym floor is the usual assortment of machines, again common to all Fitness Firsts. What is also common is that they have a bank of TVs at the front of the gym, and most appliances have a headphone jack, for the headphones you were given when you joined. There are also radio stations. Unfortunately, at the moment, two or three of the monitors are not tuned to the stations they are supposed to be on... Read review
