So many reasons to hate the gym, yet I absolutely love going. This recently converted Virgin Active…read moregym was once Esporta, so it has always been a private member's gym, just picked up in price a bit once Virgin bought it. The facilities in here are fantastic. Huge changing rooms with televisions and decent sized lockers, a huge pool that's very rarely busy, an even bigger gym that is fully equipped with anything you could want to use to build muscle or lose weight, and a fantastic restaurant/cafe that has a fully stocked bar and a full menu (mostly of healthy foods!). There's also a shop that sells spa/beauty products, as well as large indoor & outdoor tennis courts. The membership is a bit steep, but it's worth it if you're gonna be using it a lot of the time.
Pricey but worth it…read more I'm thin & have no muscle end of. However with the help of Virgin Active's staff the thin ikea-like flatpack stomach is now become defined. The staff here are honesty second to none! They are always on hand to lend you help or advice into what you should be doing to work towards your aims. This is obviously a private gym with a hefty membership price for myself at £45 per month (This is the 18 to 25 plan) this comes with unlimited use of the pool and gym. All I need to be honest. I think at this price it keeps away the idiots who go in and flex there muscles till there bulging out of there arms and stare at you because your big or small. The members here are all there for the same reason, to get fit therefore I dont feel intimidated at all when I look at other guys my age who have bodies which should be in the weekly edition of Mens Health magazine. With a glorious pool, which is NEVER busy. Busiest I've seen has been 10 people in the pool. On a weekday at lunch time you can almost be guaranteed to get the pool to yourself. Steam room and sauna are also very popular with all members, the sauna is much more frequently visited by hairy men and the steam room more visited by the Hamilton football club! Only thing, the changing rooms are all communal. This dosent bother me, but it may bother others. The cafè which looks onto the pool is incredibly reasonably priced and tastes good! Steak for £5.80...WHIT!? Tastes amazing though! And the strawberry split smoothie is to die for! I'd highly recommend this to anyone wanting to get fit or tone up or what ever :) Great fun!
This is actually a really nice gym if only i could persuade myself to go more!…read more The reason i chose this gym was mainly because of the pool. I do like a swim and as much as council pools are good i prefer the private showers and changing rooms of this place. Lots of hairdryers available for use. The main gym area is quite big and lots of machines to chose from and i never have to wait for a machine which is good. Some of the equipment have tvs which you can tune into but i never seem to get mines to work. There is a free weights area but i stay well clear of that. There are plenty of muscle men that dominate this area and the gym in general which can be slightly intimidating but i just ignore them and get on with my own workout. There is a wee cafe area that you can relax in post workout and i really reccomend the freshly squuezed orange juice. Plenty of parking outside in the fort car park and the lockers take a one pound coin. Overall its an ok wee gym for what i pay ... i just need to go more often!
THE BEST gym I have ever stepped into…read more I joined a month before it opened, having seen an add on Facebook and it's been one one of the best decisions of my year. The staff are amazingly friendly, it's not cliquey in the slightest, amazing selection of cardio and muscle machines. Full selection of Les Mills, Kettlebells, Spin, Yoga, Muay Thai, TRX classes etc, all included in your monthly membership. I took the plunge and got a PT to help me get into shape and lose body fat, I can't praise Jim highly enough for being pivitol in my (so far) shifting 3.5st It's a family run gym, so you're always guarenteed a warm welcome from Steven, the gaffer, or any of the rest of the ever growing team of top notch staff. If you're looking to get fit, have fun and feel amazing, New Age is definitely the place to come!
How has no one reviewed this yet?! So I've been to Emirates a few time now and seen the basketball…read moretwice (Go Rocks) as well as cycling at the velodrome. I know there's more to Emirates than that, but I feel like I've properly experienced sporting events here and the arena. And wow, it is amazing. It's new, shiny, clean and pretty industrial looking but without an unpleasant cold feeling to it. The events I've been to here are well organised, there are always lots of staff around who are friendly and helpful. On our most recent visit we got a Clyde souvenir for my nephew back in Australia from the gift shop, the guy working there was really friendly and had good chat. I didn't even mind that they don't have card facilities here yet (it's been open at least 6 months) so you get your card put through the old-school manual machines. It made me laugh to be honest, I did feel sorry for him though as he seemed a bit embarrassed. The velodrome has great seating and is a brilliant place to watch cycling - a sport I previously had no interest in whatsoever, but we thought we'd head along to check it out. The basketball is also really good and has great facilities for disabled seating, you still get a really great view even though you're at the back on the top level. The food and drink is reasonably priced too, not like most other sporting events you go to. I can't wait for the Commonwealth Games and will be vying for tickets to as many events as possible, especially here at the Emirates. I noticed when we were leaving the cycling that they had buses to take people back into town. I have no idea if these are free, but they must be quite handy as Emirates could be difficult to get to otherwise (unless by car). Looking at the website, there is also a Glasgow Life gym here and a spa. It pretty much has everything ... apart from card facilities and a cash machine!

The centre is big spacious and modern. Lots of changing rooms and plenty of access for disabled people. I was also lucky enough to get tickets to the velodrome during the commonwealth games (where we saw sir Chris Hoy, I couldn't take my eyes of his thighs ) I was warned before going about the extreme temperatures and wore light clothing and took a fan, which was much needed. It was an amazing experience, I didn't have a clue of the rules but it was exhilarating to watch and believe me the New Zealand team in lycra was an added treat.. Would highly recommend.

One of a notable chain of gyms opened here on thursday the 22nd of october and i was the first…read morecustomer at the doors! As we all know pure gyms can vary from place to place. Some of them are fantastic with ample areas and plenty of time to do your workout without feeling as if you hogging a machine or that you need to hurry. Others not so much with not enough machines for demand and overworked staff trying to keep everyone happy. Thankfully this one falls into the former. As i said its just new opened and it is huge! Its opened on the site of what, at one time, used to be the old kwik save at the back of the shawlands arcade and it is absolutely huge. As you walk in its a very open space with plenty of room around the machines. Id estimate about 15 treadmills, 10 bikes and a variety of cross trainers steppers and the like greet you as you walk in the door. Next to this is a studio type area for classes but that you can use if you need to when its free as well. In the corner you have a cycle studio for spin classes and such which has about another 20 bikes. Next to this is the open area with the weight machines. All the usual suspects are here such as the leg press, ab crunch, bicep and tricep pulls and for the most part they are in duplicate which will help with the demand as well. A couple of interesting machines which i rarely see are the ski machine which, as you may have guessed, simulates the movements needed in skiing and they also have access to a vibroplate in the corner as well. They also have access to two steppers which rather than the up and down contrivences have actual steps moving down and folding in at the bottom and re-emerging at the top. At the back we have a very well stocked weights area with some assisted lift machines where you can change the angle of plates and such to tailor your workout to certain parts of your body. As for the facilities you have a free water fountain as you would expect, 3 or 4 machines selling a variety of padlocks, towels, protein bars, shakes and water and down the other side we have changing rooms and showers which are all secured with the keypads which is grat for the security of your stuff. Also notably they have women's only section of the gym, unfortunately i cant comment on what is contained therein but its a nice wee addition. All in all a big gym, well built with plenty of variety and availability. I cant wait to go back now that im a member!

I'm a member of this gym and I really like it because it is very easy for me to get to after work,…read morebut I've knocked a couple of stars off because it is small and probably won't suit everyone. There is a small pool and a sauna but no steam room. The gym has most of the facilities I need like bikes, rowing machine and step machine but it is small. I usually go later in the evening and it is never too busy. Over the summer there seemed to be quite a lot of problems with air conditioning as it was never working and the gym could be unbearably hot. On the plus side the changing facilities are bright and clean and very child friendly. There is also a good selection of organised classes, but these can be busy and you should book.
I'm trying to tackle my complete lack of motivation for exercising so I thought I'd check out this…read moregym as recommended by Amanda R. I got a 24 hour pass online for £5 to go for a look around and a go of the machines as well. The gym is easy to get to on Cathcart Road and has it's own private car park. We visited at a peak time and there was loads of spots so that's always good to know. To enter you need a pin number and then you stand in a very futuristic pod thing to be let in. You can sign up in the front area as well, in case you aren't already a member. There are lockers in the main area which means they are inside the secure doors, and visible to the whole gym. This was one of my worries about going to a 24 hour gym as I've heard horror stories about people's stuff being stolen - this seems like it might not be an issue here as you'd have to be pretty brazen to steal someone's stuff right in front of everyone. The machines are laid out in one main area which is huge - there is rows and rows of treadmills, cross trainers, bikes, rowing machines as well as a free weight area and machines. Then there's a proper weightlifting room if you're into lifting the heavy stuff. All the equipment I want to use is here, and they also have free classes (as well as some paid ones). There was a good mix of people and by that I mean it wasn't a total gym-wank gym so most people should feel quite comfortable here. The music was bad, but when is gym music good? Bring your own headphones and you'll be fine. I would have ranked this place a 4 star quite happily, but I needed some help from the staff when getting my padlock set up. She was so super helpful and nice about my extreme stupidity that it gets bumped up to a 5 star.
A month or so in, and I'm really impressed with this gym. For less than half the price of what I…read morewas paying before I get loads in the way of cardio stuff, loads of resistance machines and a good sized space for doing body weight stuff. There's also a really big free weights section, but I haven't used that yet. The facilities are really good: nice and bright with a good changing area, loads of lockers, and good quality equipment that hasn't been battered about yet. I've not dealt with the staff yet, but they all look really friendly. There are personal trainers there, and the details are on the wall, but it would be great if there were prices up there as well. It's probably on the website, but something at the gym would be great. All in, this is a brilliant deal. For the price, you get membership for here and the one in the city centre, which is an absolute bargain. If you're looking for a new gym definitely give it a go.

The egotistical/macho behaviour that I've seen at more than one martial arts gym before is very much not tolerated here, so it's great for women, or anyone who might feel a bit intimidated by the idea of walking into a 'fight' gym for the first time. The ladies boxing and kickboxing classes are a great place to start and, because you can take things at a pace that suits you, suitable for all fitness levels. The owners and instructors know what they're talking about, and will keep you right. Classes are usually a good laugh as well, and I appreciate the feeling that I'm getting fitter at the same time as learning what might turn out to be pretty useful new skills, rather than just running on a treadmill in a big glass box. Give it a go!
