Moderators Carlos Posted February 21, 2017 Moderators Share Posted February 21, 2017 I was a member of DL via work but used Trafford, it was great. Started using Bolton and it was way under par IMO. For that money in Bolton, I'd want concierge service, free towels provided and unlimited sausage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannyroad58 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 My personal trainer used to work there and said it's a rip off, that's why he left, they don't give a fuck about the person only the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent_white Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 My personal trainer used to work there and said it's a rip off, that's why he left, they don't give a fuck about the person only the money I've never been to a gym where I felt anybody actually gave a shit - with the exception of Waterloo St. None of the chain gyms could care less whether you even turn up providing your subs are being paid.

ohjimmyjimmy Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Used to go to one round lever street, a real back street type gym, rough as fuck but had everything you needed and was about £12 a month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Used to go to one round lever street, a real back street type gym, rough as fuck but had everything you needed and was about £12 a month There's one round here called bulldogz. With a Z. They have a massive picture on the wall to show you how and where to inject safely. My mate went in and dropped his weight directly on a big roid heads protein shake. Spattered him all over his gold gyms vest and face Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri McAnespie Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) Whitt isn't wrong about Peg-Leg's cesspit at Burnden..Joined when it first opened, was like a new pin, a quality stairmaster machine and a tidy blonde Polish girl on the staff, though she spurned my overtures in favour of remaining with some big lummox boyfriend from the old country - the bloke more-or-less lived in the place to keep tabs on her, anyway I digress... Stuck it out there about two years although it went to the fucking dogs very quickly, largely due to inadequate levels of cleaning and maintenance staff, no disinfectant sprays/paper towels etc. for customers to use, but largely due to fucking animalistic behaviour from mainly asian chavs but also a good smattering of white British and eastern european brothers in scumminess...Gobbing in the steam room and showers, glass protein bottles left in stupid places (like the steam room), folk training in work/street clothes, folk stinking the gaff up shitting and with poor hygiene, shaving in steam room etc. The last machine I'd use in my routine was an ab machine, the type with a pad across the chest - caught fucking ringworm off the cunt...Was already pissed off with the place so paid up a month in cash, told them about the scummy conditions and the fungus and told them to stick it up their arse (the remaining few months of the membership). They wouldn't hear a word of it, it was clean etc. Everyone else was happy and I was a cunt... About two months later the place was in the BEN for filthiness and a conjunctivitis outbreak - shithole, unless standards have improved, and pissing in plugholes would suggest they ain't - I wouldn't go there for free.

tarian1979 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Sports direct. 10 quid a month. Only use it for treadmill couple of times a week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc505 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 So I was considering changing gyms to Burnden from Castlefield as I only live round the corner. After Youri's review I think I'll leave it! Aside from the filth and scum, nothing gets my goat more than knobheads doing "workouts" in street clothes and/or sitting on machines doing nothing but pissing about with their phones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Carlos Posted February 22, 2017 Moderators Share Posted February 22, 2017 Helio is closer and £10 a month. No frills but the owner takes care of it. No brainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc505 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 If it has a sauna/steam room im signing up. But I guess at that price probably not. I don't mind paying slightly more to help cover maintenance of saunas and pools but DL was way too much. YMCA charges me 38 which I can just about justify Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Carlos Posted February 22, 2017 Moderators Share Posted February 22, 2017 None of that gayness, but the gym is good and well maintained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc505 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Thursday is wrestling day at YMCA, on this day the eastern European and middle eastern men after wrestling come to the sauna to massage eachother and practice their moves. If Helio cannot replicate these sounds of gentlemen's wet, bare skin slapping together to the soundtrack of grunting and approval, I'm out.
