Midtown Studio…read moreoffers 50 minute bootcamp style classes that incorporate a combination of interval running, strength training and functional exercises. It's similar to Barry's except the sets between exercises are shorter and you switch from the bench, floor and treadmill more frequently. I like that there's an open space/turf where you can do more exercises that utilizes open space that's separate from the bench. It definitely feels like an all over athletic conditioning class in that regard. The woodway curved treadmills are really cool in that it's entirely dynamic and driven by your resistance although there is a manual resistance knob to add on more weight. Once you get going on it, it can go really fast and feel intimidating but after the first class you get the hang of it! There's also these straps with handles attached to the treadmill that we didn't get to use but I assume they're used in more cable based exercises. The bench is stacked with different equipment, like dumbbells and kettlebells as well as battleropes and sandbags. Class size is about half of Barry's at full capacity (20-25?) The first time I took an "extreme abs" class with an instructor whose name I didn't catch. It was definitely one of those classes that went from 0 to 100 reaaal quick so if you're not as used to working out at that intensity I'd disclose it with the instructor. The second class was with Manu, the owner, and he was FANTASTIC!!! He was such an excellent coach and really tried to give attention to each individual (something you wouldn't see at Barry's). He gave clear instructions in both French and English and was extremely motivating. He's super friendly and runs a great studio! Classes aren't as frequent and tend to go more toward the later morning into the late evening. My friend and I purchased a 2/30 euro intro deal and it was well worth the money!! If you're interested in getting a sweat on in Paris or wanna make more room for crossaints, this is your place! There are showers and Rituals amenities to freshen up with after class.

This gym: Bad positioning (close to terrorist area, 7 min walk from metro (often in rain), crowded as all other gyms, small, limited equipment. I met a few things and called a lot of times but no one is there to reply me. The average reply rate of my email is 10%. What the heck? The thing that disappoints me the most is that they keeps charging me. I am leaving on July, so I write an email saying how can I quit, the manager, called Colin, he replied that I have till end of August my contract to fill. I replied I am leaving in 2 weeks and I may write back if needed. But he did not reply. So I forget thisl. In October I realized they are still charging me, so I write an email : why? After 5 emails they told me I did not give them the email (which they did not ask for) while charged me for fees of October during writing me the emails. I am so disappointed of this kind of s-word customer service. They write two simple emails accusing me. Quaeso. Quaeso.

Even though it is a little bit out of the way from where I live and work, it is worth the trek, and I get to walk by the Eiffel Tower each time, which is a nice bonus. I love a gym where I feel welcome and can spend hours there if I wanted to. When I enter to get my gym lock, I'm greeted by people who know me by name, and the same applies with other trainers throughout the session (all done in English, if you prefer). There is a nice café by the entrance where I'm comfortable sitting and having a drink with a colleague after a squash match or to wait for my wife to finish up in the changeroom. Of course there is wifi, and you can also watch whatever big soccer ("football") game is on as well on their big screen. I find it amusing that the bar doesn't serve protein drinks like a normal gym bar would but rather espressos, cappuccinos, wine and beer and some charcuterie, it is so Parisien it hurts. The gym equipment is pristine and all new. The machines are sophisticated and use some sort of bar code technology that allows you to track your progress, if you are into that kind of thing. The treadmills all have youtube, tv and ipod capabilities - which is key when you hate running as much as I do. While I thought it was odd that there was only one squat rack and one bench press respectively, I never seem to have to fight for them, owing I think to the fact that there doesn't seem to be a big lifting culture here in Paris (see above regarding gym café). This view is bolstered when you consider these two critical pieces are in entirely separate rooms at opposite ends of the facility, yet no one else seems to mind. The price is also very reasonable. While there is an initiation fee of about 200 euros, it comes with a few training sessions, and 15 credits for group classes or squash sessions. Yes, those are extra, and not included, usually averaging out to 10-16 euro each. The classes themselves are killer so definitely worth the money, especially bootcamp with Boris. Towels and water bottles are not included either, so you don't get all the conveniences of North American clubs. But it is more than you'll get anywhere else in Paris for 84 euro a month. Finally, if you are into squash, this is the place for you. Courts are well kept with glass backing. I understand there are only 3 real clubs you can play at, and I've been to one of the others (CMG Montparnasse) and it is no comparison. Courts are in huge demand and fill up quickly so you have to reserve at the desk or online, often filling up (5 courts in session) a few days in advance. If you want to check it out, reach out to Alex Kuntz, who handles the memberships, he is awesome to deal with.

The old industrial-hall-style Building undoubtedly has it´s Charme and they try their best to keep it clean (apart from the roof windows), but there is no hiding the fact that everything is just very old. I don´t see why this pool is more expensive than the others in Paris, as you are not exactly getting more for your money. What you get more of, is inconvenience (like waiting for the man to go around and open your dressing-booth, lots of stairs, blow-dryers not at the exit) and a public swimming-pool that is in no way Handicapped-accessible. Opening hours during school-weeks are also not very consumer-friendly. 1 hour 15 minutes they open some days around noon and still expect you to pay 4 Euro 80. And that´s just not worth it.

After buying a ticket, you go upstairs and enter the 'no outdoor shoes area' where an unsmiling member of staff will snatch the ticket from your hand, and point you towards one of the individual cubicles which encircle the pool on two floors, in which to change. After changing you leave all your things locked in this personal cubicle, pulling the door shut behind you. Next - the 'obligatoire' (obligatory) shower (with your swimsuit on, even though it is a single sex shower) before entering the pool. Gentlemen please note bermudas are not allowed, and you too need to wear a bathing hat, even if you are bald. The water temperature is spot on, and the pool is not too crowded especially in the mornings. The lane discipline can be a bit lacking, with dawdlers kicking along with a float in the same lane as tanned speed kings churning past in a high velocity front crawl, nearly missing a plump granny doing slow but steady breast stroke, but amazingly it never seems to come to blows. Afterwards, return for another bizarre shower in your swimsuit, and then wait for the still-unsmiling attendant to come and open your cubicle to get dressed again. All in all, a wonderful pool, a delightful swim and I just wish they had something like this in London. Convenient Velib parking spot down the other end of the street. Perfect.
