Okay, I am not going to lie. I have a personal stake in Be EPIC Fitness. But that does not stop me…read morefrom singing it's praises. I am all about honesty, and I can honestly tell you that anyone that has trained or even spoken with Karena David from Be EPIC Fitness can tell you that her amazing energy, knowledge, and love for fitness is contagious. I believe in yelp. I have contributed to it and I have certainly benefited from it. I invite anyone reading this review that is looking for a personal trainer to reach out to Karena for a 1 on 1 session and try to deny my claims. Karena is accomplished as an athlete, figure model, and business person. She prides herself on her honesty, sincerity, professionalism, and work ethic. Be EPIC Fitness is based out of Fitness First George St, Platinum, however, she can also train at your home (Sydney inner suburbs), public outdoor spaces, or her gym in The Rocks. No matter where you train, you will get an amazing workout that is tailored for you.

The yoga & dance classes are great, but watch out for when you try and quit. Once you give them…read moreyour credit card details, it seems they can be pretty unscrupulous. They supposedly cancelled my membership in August last year when I moved to Melbourne, but since then they started debiting fees again every fortnight since February this year and sad to say it's still going on. I'm now a couple hundred dollars out of pocket, which they've been quietly billing the last five weeks and I've wasted more hours than I can count on calls and emails to try and get this sorted. Trust that you'll undo all the good mojo and more from any number of yoga classes you attend here.

Oh my gawd, you guys....This place is like heaven on earth for gymrats! If you weren't already…read morepumped for your workout, the bumpin nightclub vibe you're hit with as you enter the club will get you energized. Almost every floor has at least one room dedicated to a particular type of class - spin, barre, pilates, yoga, etc. Yesterday I passed by a hip hop dance class with an instructor that could throw down with Usher any day. They offer different levels of membership, starting with Ultimate at $80 fortnightly. If you can get a promo from someone, it's so worth it. I basically live on their free weights/machine floor -- it's swoon-worthy with all the kettlebells, free weights, TRX, and machines you could ever ask for!

Hiscoes is probably the daggiest gym in Sydney. And this is why I love it…read more At Hiscoes it's highly unlikely that you will come across any young, beefed up, oiled and muscley men doing bicep curls in front of a mirror, throwing you side glances to see if you're watching. It's also highly unlikely that you will feel the need to update your work-out clothes every month in order to maintain the trendy look of the gym. And whilst Hiscoes does have a committed community of regulars, it's highly unlikely that you will be running beside rippling 'Biggest Loser' trainers or beautifully toned film stars that make you want to close your eyes whilst running on the treadmill (not advisable). The gym is small and family based with a distinctly local scene. The downside of this is that if you prefer to be anonymous when you're working out, it's hard to go by unnoticed here. The staff know you by face and name, which means that they also know when it's been a while since your last visit. Also, don't think that just because Hiscoes' team of regulars fall within the 45 - 60 bracket that they're not intimidating too - it's tough standing beside any person that can run for hours without breaking into a sweat or bench-press more than three times what I can, let alone if they're twice or three times my age. Hiscoes has everything you need to try to get fit, including Spin, Boxing, Pilates and Yoga classes. Plus added motivation comes in the form of that cheesy, crusty pizza aroma that wafts across the road from Crust. And trust me, there's nothing like the smell of pizza to make you work harder.

Hiscoes is a great gym except for some of the staff. The blonde male personal trainer has all of…read morethe arrogance you would expect of someone who trains their clients but doesn't notice how they interrupt other peoples training. Also,the Sunday closure between 1 and 4pm might save wages but is a big negative. Otherwise it is a good gym very overpriced compared to others for the facilities but that is what you pay to keep a family gym going.
