Go to LA Fitness instead
The gym group. So much shit is broken at my gym but it's too close and 24 hour so I don't want to move
my local one is massive, they could fit in so many bench presses and squat racks, but instead it's like 2 benches, 2 racks and five million treadmills and the free weights are all over the place
Mine's based, it's got six racks so I almost never have to wait for one
What are they like? Used to walk past one in Manchester, my only thought was how big could it actually be inside and how many memberships must they need to sell in order to justify the location
What are good gyms in the UK? I go to Nuffield which is nice. Got a day pass at David Lloyd once which was ok
3-5 platforms for the entire building, dozens upon dozens of treadmills
Pure Gym facilities are half a step above public toilets. My gym has signs everywhere saying lockers are being broken into, 99% of people are fricking rude. It's like a crèche for all the people with shit gym etiquette. Blacks everywhere speaking in mumbo jumbo and groups of broccoli haired 19 year olds gathering around equipment on their phones. It's dark and dingy and seems generally hostile unless you go before lunch in the morning.
>What are good gyms in the UK?
Just find a local bodybuilding or strongman gym
which Manchester one anon?

i used to go to the gorton pure gym, it was ok, but that was years ago and i went early doors
you get the average clientele for the area but usually the more well-turned-out the earlier you go.
I'm a Boltonian who has commuted into Manchester for uni/work since 2015 but I used to walk past the one on Market Street
I used to go to the anncoats pure gym in manchester, it was actually decent
Avoid cheap gyms. That's where the chavs go and it's fricking awful. Find a gym that's a bit more expensive than the cheap chains, but not stupidly expensive. You'll get a decent gym but without the terrible people.
Council leisure center gyms actually tend to be ok. They'll probably only have one or two platforms (if you're lucky), but they're 90% old people walking on treadmills.
There is some truth to this, although in the more expensive gyms you’ve got to deal with the personal trainers hovering around like flies looking for shit.
True, but shitty personal trainers are much easier to deal with than chavs and gym roasties
Agree with this anon. Avoid any gym under £25 a month. Not to be a snob but it means you avoid the rifraff underclass. Roiders also can't afford it because they spend all their money on roids despite being cashiers in M&S.
my gym is a converted church
the logo is swole jesus on the cross. pretty based innit
Blasphemy.
uh. dutchbro?
Gymbox is a gay sex club masquerading as a gym.

Aren't all the UK mega gyms basically the same?
>I refuse to believe there are worse gyms out there than city center Pure Gyms in the UK.
Then you haven't been to any McFit gym in Berlin
My local puregym is great. Everybody keeps to themselves, no packs of brocolli head sor pakis hoarding equipment or anything. I only go after dinner and the weekend so maybe I miss them.
My puregym doesn't even have free water, only one bench press rack aswell
Ah the joys of London
> expects any extra shit from puregym but pure gym stuff
god forbid i want free tap water
JD Gyms aren't too bad equipment wise, but they've got zero atmosphere/ community.
Usually have 4 half racks, 6 platforms, 3 squat racks and then one of those stupid rig things
>UK
>City centres
It's not the city centres lad, its the residents
It's the cheapest biggest chain so attracts the worst kind of people depending on your area.
The equipment wasn't bad when I used to go - on the other hand it was actually stellar. Nowadays knowing how important gym is to me I'd be going for a more expensive membership with more perks and showers/towels and shit
What are good gym chains? David Lloyd? Virgin?
*centre
There's four puregyms in my city. One in the city centre, one on the very outskirts of town and the others somewhere in between.
City centre one is a shithole full of aggro looking poles, chavs and browns, weights scattered everywhere, groups of pakis, etc. One on the outskirt of town is fantastic, full of hot girls, clean, tidy, lots of equipment.
My work subsided my third space gym membership which is really nice. It's kinda homosexual but it's clean, not too crowded and has a pool with unlimited free towels so I can build myself a towel fort in the sauna.
I once went to one and saw a paki in full traditional garb, looking like a Taliban fighter doing lat pulldowns. Then he started chatting with a Black thot in full thot attire. Ah, the wonders of diversity!
What do you mean ukrainians dont go to gyms every gym is pure gym
30% of men in England are on roids. So gyms are gonna get rowdy
There's a puregym across the street from me and I still drive 15 minutes to a hotel gym and pay £60 a month just because I took one glance inside pure gym and saw zoomers everywhere.
My gym is all boomers/retirees and that's the way I like it. They don't even touch the benchpress etc, they are just on treadmill
It's worth paying the extra £20-£40/month for a nicer gym. That small increase is a filter for a lot of people.
