    What does your local gym do that sets it apart from the big chains?

    What makes your local gym special that you stay there instead of going to a big chain? Is it just the ambiance? Being able to grunt and make other loud noises while you workout? Is there some special piece of equipment that big chain gyms don't have?

    Dropped in for another look.

    Dropped in for a look this morning since I am off work today. Only took me 10 minutes to work out that I won't be back here for a while, still the same mentally challanged people sprouting the same BS and arguing that the sky looks red, when everyone can clearly see the blue. I feel sorry for...

    North Gold Coast Gyms

    Apart from the franchise gyms, there doesn't seem to be any decent gyms after World Gym Ashmore. There's GCB and PTC but they're central GC. Can anyone shed some light as to whether there's something established or in the works? The northern Gold Coast is rapidly expanding and a lot of new...

    24 hour gyms. Any that are worth it?

    Hi all, So, I'm a shift worker, and I have been looking for a new gym to join. Many moons ago I used to train at one on the Gold Coast that (I think) was open 24 hours, and had staff there at all times. Their equipment was great! By comparison, the ones I've looked at lately that are 24 hours...
