Sometimes life throws you lemons and you make the best lemonade in the land.. This happened to me…read more I became extremely ill whilst attending Snap fitness in 2013 and was forced to quit- this meant giving up a lot of time spent at my favourite gym. Just yesterday I called the manager asking if I could become a member once again. I expected to repay all membership fees/ Card holding fees and pay upfront a little extra $$. Not one cent was charged. I had become a member years ago and once your a member you're always a member! I still had my card so they simply reactivated! I also snapped up a promotion so I get a month for free... Not bad at alllllll. As for the gym, it's small but it's open 24 hours. There are comps/ group sessions/ pt sessions/ boxing/ skipping equipment/ every kind of gym junkie equipment you'll need. Oh and stacks of weights if you want to 'get big'. I'll be going back again tomorrow. Let's get fit Brisbaneites.

Goodlife at Holland Park is one of the two gyms I regularly work out at. The great thing about a…read moreGoodlife membership is that you can visit any Goodlife Gym around Australia, which is fantastic, so I swap between this one and the Mount Gravatt location. Holland Park has probably the most packed out group fitness class timetable of all the Brisbane goodlifes (that I have seen), so this is great in the sense that they offer a wide variety of classes (RPM/cycle, all the LesMills, Zumba, Boxing, Yoga and Pilates). Unfortunately, though the classes here are EXTREMELY packed out and popular and often I find myself getting frustrated at the lack of space in a Bodyattack or Bodycombat class (its not nice to be almost kicked in the head, or run into someone). They do give out class tokens, but I swear these never run out and they dont seem to impose much class size limitation. The carpark at this gym is also quite tiny and you will literally never find a park in peak times. Fortunately there is some street parking as well. The good thing about Holland Park is that likely due to it being one of the more busy and popular Goodlifes, they have spent a lot of money on upgrading it. There are nice new carpets, new cycle/spin room, new equipment and a large shiny newly expanded weights section. This gym also used to be a Squash centre prior to becoming a Goodlife, so the squash courts remain, for anyone who likes to play.

Snap Fitness is designed for those that want a cheap, easy workout. It isn't like your huge…read moreGoodlife gyms, that have classes, pools and any number of fitness machines. What it does provide is a smaller, more private workout option, open 24 hours for those can't access a gym during normal business hours, at a much cheaper price. They offer a 30-day money back guarantee, but when a basic membership starts at only $20 per fortnight it is almost not worth getting your money back. Otherwise there is a free one week trial for anyone who wants to give Snap Fitness a go. Snap Holland Park has 5 Treadmills, 5 Bikes and 5 Walking Machines, as well as one of each machine for the basic muscle workouts. This means means when it does get busy there is often a wait for machines or weights, but due to the small nature of the business this happens rarely. Often there were less than 5 people in the whole gym, including staff! I suggest going during the afternoon hours, it's always quieter and means you can concentrate on your own fitness with distraction. The staffed are hours are: Sunday y appointment only Monday 8:30 AM - 12:00 AM 3:00 PM - 7:00 PM Tuesday 8:30 AM - 11:30 AM 3:00 PM - 7:00 PM Wednesday 8:30 AM - 12:00 AM 3:00 PM - 7:00 PM Thursday 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM Friday 8:30 AM - 12:00 AM Saturday 8:30 AM - 12:00 AM

As with many gyms the type of staff that are attracted to these areas of work are not exactly on…read morethe clever side of the coin. During the peak summer period earlier this year the fully enclosed gym was without air conditioning for some weeks. Considering the gym is in Brisbane and not out near Birdsville such repairs could have been done within a number of days. I relise that for each day the airconditioning is not running it is a big financial gain for the owner but members do pay to have the airconditioning operating as no reduction in fees were offered. During this period the cleaning stopped and the gym had the smell of a very well utilised brothel. Money again, it is all about money with this operation. I have 2 sons that use the gym, one left Brisbane to go to school elsewhere and as such did not need the gym membership. After 3 conversations with 3 somewhat dim staff members the company is still taking money from our account without authority. Just be aware this company is on the very dodgy side of gym operators.

I find it quite amazing how quiet this pool is considering its location smack bang in the middle of…read moresuch a populated area and so close to a freeway exit, but that's one of my favourite things about it. Of course the quiet factor depends on the time of day - I haven't managed to perfect my knowledge of exactly when lap pools are at their busiest, but I've never had to share a lane with more than one person here. There's not much in the way of kid's entertainment except for a small paddle pool, but if you're kid free and enjoy a comparably peaceful lap swim this is a great place to go.
