Which is handy as most who go to a gym drive there.Originally posted by The Spartan View PostI joined a gym here a few months ago, it's quite basic but also doubles as a boxing gym which isn't too bad. The only other gym in town is on top of a multi-storey carpark lol

It’s always worth asking client co. A few places had a free gym and others were £5 per month. At last client co the permies did not even know there was a gym in the building!

£91 !!!!
Flippin heck I was considering the posh one by my client was steep at £38 off peak. It is only 2 mins walk from client office though.
Assuming you cant get your ltd com to pay for it otherwise it'd be a BIK anyway?

You have a pool at your home??Originally posted by Lockhouse View PostThe problem I have is that I'm getting on a bit and the time when I could manage a long commute, a 9 or 10 hour day and then get to the gym was about a decade ago.
These days I cycle to\from the station to keep reasonably fit and have a pool and rowing machine at home. Most of the time though I'm too tired to use them until the weekend.

Mine is £40 a month all-included, I can use any gym in the chain – Total Fitness.
It used to have claim to largest gym in Europe, indoor running track, spa, pool, 2 aerobics studios, spin studio and mind and body, although the kit is the same kit it was furnished with when opened around 20 years ago!!
Which does not really bother me as although old kit, works perfectly well.
I go to a lot of classes – Spin followed by Body Pump (Les Mills) tonight. Did a Body Attack yesterday.
I think the ideal class combination over a week is Circuit, BodyAttack, BodyPump, and a couple of spin classes.

I thought you were some sort of financial and statistical whizz?Originally posted by sasguru View PostGot a rowing machine, cycle, weights in the Ecospace at the end of the garden.
Aftwerwards can have a steam, or use the jets in the posh sit down shower.
£0 per annum.
What did your Ecospace shed cost? £30-£50k
You are getting on a bit so lets say 25 yrs of use, and thats being generous
so £1200-£2k p/a - £100-£167 p/m.
Mmmmm maybe Churchill has got the better deal - and he won't have to pick your pubes out of the drains!
