The PWS-200 is a selectorized 200lb weight stack. Precision cast steel plates slide smoothly over sealed bearing pulleys. To add resistance for cable exercises, just insert selector pin into the desired plate. Easy to read numbers on plates indicate amount of weight being used.
Advantages: Good cardio and classes... Disadvantages: but the weights area leaves a lot to be desired
...After having been a member of another gym chain for a couple of years I decided it was time for me to try somewhere new and get inspired again. My previous gym was heavily concentrated towards free weights and body builder types although they did hold some classes. It was fun for quite a long time as it gave me a chance to stare unashamedly at all the weird and beautiful people training there but in the end that was not enough to inspire me anymore.
I got the final push to try something else when I saw an advertising board stating that for a limited time only you could join Fitness First without paying the joining fee of £100. As I refuse to pay a fee for the honour of paying out regular money this sounded good to me and I went to have a look. Annoyingly they wouldn't tell me of the different offers at reception but I had...

Advantages: Friendly, well run, something for everybody Disadvantages: Busy at peak times of the day.
...For around £30 a month you can get fit and stay fit in attractive and relaxed surroundings in the centre of Newcastle. Gym membership also gives you access to all the Fitness Firsts around the country and unlimited use of all of their facilites.
I joined Fitness First with my husband with a desire to lose weight and get fit. Fitness First has not let either of us down. We have both been members of gyms before which for many reasons we have not enjoyed. Fitness First is a gym with a really friendly, down-to-earth atmopshere. Selling itself as affordable fitness for all brings with it none of the intensity some gyms can have.
The gym has a lot to offer its customers: on joining you recieve a free induction with a personal trainer who will help you to develop a programme that is right for you. The team of personal trainers...

...I have been a member of Fitness First for just over four years. I joined in London, and have recently moved my membership to Leicester.
Fitness First Leicester is part of an international chain of fitness clubs. Your membership is valid wherever you go, although some clubs abroad charge a small supplement because they offer deluxe services.
The Leicester club is next to the Walkers Stadium, so it can be a bit chaotic on match days. It shares a parking lot with a Staples office products store, and you are issued a window sticker without which you can't park when there is an event at the stadium.
Joining is easy. You speak to one of their consultants, and they sort out the best deal for you. I had a problem because instead of transferring my membership from London, they cancelled it. But it worked out well because they were having...
