I hired Annie Lyn Rivas as my personal trainer and trained with her for 8 months before leaving BGC…read more. She is incredibly knowledgeable in her field and brought my fitness to a new level helping me with my nutrition and exercise. She was always on time and motivating and kept me on track with my goals. I've trained with other trainers and honestly I have not been able to find anyone as knowledgeable as Annie Lyn that made me progress like she did and surpass my fitness goals . I highly recommend anyone in BGC / Makati area looking for a professional certified trainer to contact Ms Rivas. She is a true professional in her field not to mention a competitive professional athlete herself.

I met Coach Annie when I was preparing for my 2018 wedding. I was a size 12-14 and hadn't been…read morephysically active for about a year. She developed a program for me that involved multiple types of physical training --- weight lifting, high and low intensity cardio, interval training, tabata, sprints, etc. During each workout she was firm but encouraging, always helpful and kind. I considered each session a therapy session as well because Coach Annie is a great listener. We developed a friendship that I continue to treasure up to today. She was always open to my own inputs into my training, and evolved my program when I needed to change it up. I increased both strength and endurance because Coach Annie is a runner AND a lifter, so both are given equal attention in my program. I was at peak form on my wedding day, a strong (not skinny) size 2. Beyond the improved physical appearance, I developed discipline and focus and created a friendship with a woman who trained not only through her created program but also through example. One look at her and you will know she is more than legit. She is also a breath of fresh air, professional smart, funny, and empathetic. You can't go wrong with her. She is one of the best things that ever happened to me, and when I look at my wedding photos I'm always reminded of what she did for me and my body. Thank you for everything coach!

Updated down to 3 Stars…read more As much as I still like this gym and this branch, their towel service has been really inconsistent lately. I don't mind paying the P50 for a set of two (workout towel + bath towel); and tolerated it when I would have to get two workout towels (one for actually working out and one for after showering - imagine having to towel dry your whole body with a hand towel/washcloth), I think it's not acceptable (for a gym at least) to have no towels at all. The past weeks, it's been no bath towel, no workout towel - and now it's down to no towel at all. So bring your own towels if you can; or go home sweaty and stinky. ------ 3.5 stars. Last year I came home after living for 3 years in the states. The last 2 or so months there were really stressful for me and I'm the type who eats when stressed. I had this notion that I wouldn't be able to go back to the states for a while so I ate everything in my path. Seriously. Grocery Cupcakes. Animal Style In N Out. "I don't care anymore" ice cream. Needless to say, when I got back, I wasn't exactly in best shape. And adjusting to the weather (or air?) here, my asthma went haywire too. I knew I needed to get back to exercising and was quite happy to find out that this Gold's Gym was only a few blocks away from my place. So I started going. The gym itself is a bit small. There's only one pair of dumbbells for each weight (need the 30 pound ones and they're in use? Use the 25 or 35 ones first. Or wait). And there are also only about 8 treadmills and a few other cardio machines (not counting the spinning machines). In terms of weight equipment, i'd say they they have a complete assortment - you can workout all body parts, maybe just wait a bit if machines are in use. They also have a wet and dry sauna - the dry one is under repair as of this writing, while the wet one is on during specific times of the day. They do have a pretty large aerobics class area and a good number of spinning class type bikes as well. The gym's size is a little small compared to the Glorietta or Galleria branches and may get crowded during peak hours. I tend to go at around 10am when there's no one around - and even then I would have to sometimes wait for some machines. There are times as well in the morning when a whole soccer team comes in and basically takes over the weights area and a lot of the cardio class area. What is great about this branch though are the people - and I honestly think people could make or break the my experience. The staff is generally helpful and friendly and I've been given pretty good advice especially since my asthma is triggered when I do cardio. Overall, I like my little gym. I still don't have abs (I blame it on my non-diet haha) but I do feel much better than I did months ago. Gold's is convenient, and the people are nice. Since I go at odd hours, I don't have much trouble with crowds, or, at least I don't have to wait too long. But please, if you're in and on a machine, don't take calls. If you do need to take a call, vacate the machine so others can use it ?

The Gold's here isn't my home branch (New Manila is), but I do find myself here relatively often…read more The gym is in a great location, just a block off from the heart of Bonifacio High Street and on the 5th floor above CPK and Applebee's. It's literally in the middle of BGC. The staff here is friendly and pretty aloof, which is nice. The gym itself has also been consistently clean, especially notable given how busy it is. The peak hours rule definitely applies from 5-9pm!! People love coming here right after work on weekdays, it seems. The gym itself is pretty small and there is zero redundancy in workout equipment in the weight room. Get used to waiting. Luckily most of the gym-goers here are friendly and are open to letting you cycle in. I wish there were more weights available as that would definitely improve their score. The gym itself feels kinda cramped too.

I saw some reviews which seemed like people just wanted to hate so here's an honest review: - I've been here when it's packed and I smell nothing I always see people cleaning and wiping when I visit. - I've been here at 4am and there were two employees there so I felt safe enough. - as for gym bag I always carry it with me. I wouldn't trust leaving it on an open rack. For the Philippines working out anytime you want is quite difficult but not anymore! - this is one of the first main stream 24/7 gyms in the Philippines There equipment is top notch. They have : - bosu balls - boxing bags - trx - foam rollers - elliptical - stair master - bikes - yoga room - classes - bench press - free weights And much more What's cool about this gym is that if you sign up for this gym you're allowed to go to any anytime fitness gym around the world. Which is perfect for me because I travel a lot Some gyms can get pricey especially in BGC also not many gyms are open 24/7 especially for the price so this is really the best option for me

I am not athletic per se, but it isn't for lack of trying…read more When i can, i make it a point to hit the gym. But being in advertising makes that a bit more difficult given the long and late hours I spend at work. I try to wake up early to sneak-in a workout session (I can already hear Yoda saying - -"Do or do not. There is no try.") but my nightly overtime keeps on shooting that horse in the face. It's gotten so bad that sometimes the only workout I get in a week is hopping around the conference room on a pogo stick during brainstorming (which is actually fun, but I digress...) I've been a member of two gyms already in my 15-year quest for abs and I usually encounter the same problem - -I don't get to maximize my gym membership because of operating hours. But that's about to change thanks to Anytime Fitness High Street - -one of 2,900 Anytime Fitness gyms around the world that operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year - -in short my kind of gym. With my previous gym membership expired, I was on a lookout for a new gym that operated until later hours. While searching online I found out that Anytime Fitness BGC High Street branch was already open. Excited, I rushed to visit on the same day, just to inquire initially but I found myself walking out a member. Signing up was so easy, and the staff was very accommodating and friendly. If you plan to pay for your monthly dues via credit card you're initial cash out on the spot would only be P3, 500 - -P1, 000 for the joining fee and P2, 500 for your very own Key FOB - -which gives you 24-hour access to the gym (and if you've been a member for a month, 24-hour access to all other Anytime Fitness branches worldwide). The gym is clean, it has all the equipment you need to get in shape and is even set up in a way that allows you to do HIIT workouts and even circuit training if that's what you fancy. And if you're very particular about bathrooms/locker rooms the gym offers you private bathrooms each made for individual use --complete with shower and toilet (yay privacy!) Now I get to work out anytime I can. So while everyone is out at midnight or at home asleep, you'd probably find me at Anytime Fitness Hight Street running on the treadmill, swinging some kettle balls, or doing a few burpees. Now that's fitness in your own time.

Occasionally I'd still come here for special events. I came today because it was the only Fitness First gym I know open on Christmas day. The last time I was here was May 2015 so let's see if anything's changed. AIR-CONDITIONING/VENTILATION I remember writing on the club's complaint form a year ago because air conditioning was very bad. So bad that a lot of people would be leaving group classes especially RPM/cycling because it gets too warm in some parts of the room. But now it's very cold that I was shivering in the locker room. EQUIPMENT The tricep rope thing that attaches to the cable machine smells! Other machines were fine. Glad to see 2 preacher curl benches (gone in FF RCBC). Not all the workout benches used for the BodyStep class have the rubber that grips the floor! While they might be safe to use for BodyPump, be careful not to use them in Step classes. Bikes for RPM/Cycling are new-ish, can't complain about them. Yoga mats didn't smell bad. CLASSES I attended Crunch's BodyAttack and Ahlee's BodyStep class. Love both classes and teachers! It was my first time with Crunch who I think is one of the manager of the club. I kinda like the class atmosphere in this club, everyone's just doing their best to workout plus they seem to be enjoying what they're doing.

The Zone Badminton Court has one of the best locker rooms among all the badminton courts that I've…read morebeen to within its price range. Nicely laid badminton court mat. However, some courts are damaged and they just patched the damages instead of replacing them. White stuff coming from the ceiling also fall down which I assume are bird feathers. They did not even bother to fix the damaged lights. Most of the staff are either lazy or rude. I have only come across two staff members who are nice so far (mostly women). Half of the time that we go there, they do not automatically turn on the exhaust on each court. We either have to turn it on ourselves or go back to the counter to ask them to turn it on, which, of course, consumes the time that we paid. Rudest of all is the guy receptionist who I think is on his late 20s or 30s. He once switched the light off of our court when we just started playing. When approached, not even one apology was heard from that guy or from any of the staff present. This guy also tends to answer sarcastically. They also have a very inconsistent rescheduling policy. Or so said this guy. We have asked to reschedule more than once before this incident because of an unexpected conflict on our schedule. We thought that that would be better instead of cancelling. All of the receptionists that we talked to have always been happy to accommodate this. However, on one eventful day, same receptionist guy said that they don't allow rescheduling even if it is on the same time period that we have scheduled and that it should be done at least 2 days before our supposed schedule. That is the first time that we have heard of that policy although guy insists that that is always how things go. Weird how that is not how it always was for us and only happened when he was the one we're talking to. When asked about this rescheduling fiasco and the unwarranted-turning-off-of-the-court-lights-incident, this receptionist guy even taunted that we should go there so we can discuss it in person. AGAIN, NO APOLOGY WAS HEARD. They suck at complaint resolution. Lastly, expect that when your schedule is near their closing time, they will turn off your court light without any warning 1-2 minutes before the supposed end of your playing time.

I've been to many badminton courts in the Metro, but The Zone remains to be my favorite. For one,…read moreit is conveniently located if one lives and works within Makati CBD. After work, I just walk to the court. I don't need to bring my car, even if there are ample street parking slots in front of the building. The Zone has a total of fifteen standard badminton courts. Six of which have wood flooring, while nine are equipped with Taraflex material. There's also a basketball court complete with digital scoring system. The shower and comfort rooms are air-conditioned and personal lockers are also available. A food stall in the receiving area makes sure that players don't have to worry about drinks and food. If you forget to bring accessories, there's even a small store that offers sports socks, apparel, and other badminton stuff. Recently, The Zone improved its security by placing surveillance cameras in strategic places inside and outside the building. With this, fees and court rentals have slightly increased. At present, the entrance fee is PHP 75.00 per person. During peak hours, weekends, and holidays, you can rent a Taraflex court for PHP 300.00 per hour, while a wood court can be used for PHP 250.00 an hour. A play-all-you-can promo is available during weekdays from 6:00am to 5:00pm for just PHP 150.00 per person. The basketball court rate is PHP 1,500.00 per hour during off-peak time and PHP 2,000.00 for peak hours.
