Over the last 10 years I’ve switched between group training at big gyms, group training at small businesses outdoors, personal training in gyms, self training outdoors, self training indoors. Despite the changes, before I begin any paid training sessions, the same questions remain – Will this be worth my money? Is this training the right fit for me? This post shares what I’ve learnt about selecting a gym AND I have 3 x 30 day unlimited passes to all the best gyms near you to GIVEAWAY!
There is no magical formula that can decide if this training for you. I can only advise you go GIVE IT A GO! You’ll never ever know if you never ever go! Most gyms have a one day free trail pass. I find these aren’t ever really enough (unless you want to work out all day and completely smash yourself trying every class and facility available – which is completely unrealistic).
A pass that increases your gym trial time to 30 days at all the best gyms near you
I’ve been greatly encouraged by utilising a Moovit pass the last month. For $49 you get 30 days unlimited access to all the best gyms near you (currently open to QLD residents only). Female only gyms, 24/7 clubs, CrossFit, small class orientated studios, commercial clubs, yoga studios. It helped me decide which was right for me, right now (remember as life changes so do you training needs and what you enjoy).
Which gyms I enjoyed with my Moovit pass
I loved the bigger gyms which had lots of classes – Fitness First (where I train now) and Go Health clubs, because I could fit in a workout almost any time. I also liked the one on one PT with Define Health and Fitness, where I focused on core work – something not able to be assessed in such detail in large group classes. They also run fun outdoor sessions at Kangaroo Point.
Win 1 of 3 Moovit passes! – sorry this competition has now closed. Congratulations to Lauren Graveson, Mark Barrett and Mindy (MJ).
To win 1 of 3 Moovit Passes, all you have to do is tell me your worst gym experience and/or why you need 30 days unlimited access to all the best gyms near you! Most creative/funny answer wins. Open to QLD, Australian residents only. Competition closes 12 November 2015.
