£57 a month for both of us, I'm there 5 times a week and it's my only real hobby so well worth it for me

Around £25 per month. But I'm there 3-4 times a week, and I can use the squash and basketball courts, the pool, the tennis courts and any of the facilities they have (which I do use). It's part of my life in fact it's very important to me - I seldom drink so that £25 is just taken off my "drink" budget for example.

Ah, lot less than I was thinking then.

The local monster David Lloyd centre round the corner from work is £70 a month per person! Our company is offering a £25 subsidy towards this for anyone who wants to sign up but £45 still sounds a bit steep to me, even though the facilities are very impressive.

Mines is £46 for off peak at David Lloyds but thats gym, pool and classes only. The rackets side would be extra which for now as i am not working due to illness i cant afford to add on.

My local one had a special offer when it opened so I only paid £310 for 13 months. Apparently the first 200 members will get that price for life if they continue to renew, but I'll believe it when I see it! Totally worth it as I go at least three times a week, sometimes six.

Upped my jog/sprint to 10.4km/h and 15.4km/h today. Scary when I think that when I started using the treadmill I couldn't even run at 10km/h for more than ten minutes... now it's my relaxed jogging speed!

Isn't it amazing how quickly your fitness/strengh shoots up once you start doing something.

I lunged 30kgs today... I started off SQUATTING 20kgs ! ... now I'm squatting 45kgs

Had a play on the leg press machine today and pressed 110kgs \o/

Will · 03-06-2008, 20:57

You're bloody well squatting more than 45 missy!

Piggymon · 03-06-2008, 21:04

Will · 04-06-2008, 06:57
