This is my kind of training gym. Finally, a place where I can go for personal training and not…read morefeel like I'm being judged by all of the meatheads in the room. The trainers are highly motivated professionals who will keep you on task and make you passionate about improving your health and lifestyle choices. Not only will they structure, develop, and modify (as appropriate) a workout routine that is adapted to your specific bodily needs and fitness level; they also emphasize nutrition and will work with you on restructuring that part of your life to meet your overall fitness goals. I personally work with Annie Hon, who is fantastic. She will push you hard, but at the same time, she is gifted at identifying where your limits are and won't push you so far that you get frustrated and give up on what you came there for in the first place. As far as the facility goes, it's extensive (2 floors), clean, and spacious for you to work out comfortably without feeling like you're training on top of the other clients who are working out at the same time you are. The only downside is that you cannot use the equipment at their facility when you're not in a training session. (At the same time, this restriction is also a good thing, because it keeps their facility not-so-crowded -- so that you can maximize your use of all the equipment during your training sessions there.) So, to keep up with the training program developed for you by R.A.W.'s trainers, you'll need a separate gym membership, or access to a gym elsewhere. To that end, it can get a little pricey. But in my view, your health, longevity, and wellbeing is worth it.

No matter what your level, your age, or your what fitness level is, you are made welcome. From professional fighters, amateur white collar boxers, kids, and mums getting fit, Impakt has something for you. Great personal trainers and excellent classes. Multiple disciplines are taught: BJJ, Muay Thai, Karate, MMA, Krav, Boxing, gymnastics, and Strength & Fitness.

Impakt is a boxing gym and fitness centre located on Queens Road Central, just off the escalator…read more If you're walking up the escalator from the art tunnel of an evening, you will properly see the lights on, and people inside training. That's Impakt. Impakt runs a number of different boxing and martial arts classes, including Muay Thai kickboxing, Western boxing, Brazilian jujitsu, as well as a number of other fitness classes like boot camp and core strength training. The problem with these sort of boxing gyms, is that they can suffer from a reputation of having a lot of meat-headed lads who are into fighting, and could perhaps rather intimidating for those of us who are beginners, looking for fitness and not fighting, and women. Fortunately, Impakt, despite the front page photo on the website which is only guys with their shirts off, is not like this. The students training are very diverse, they have no pretensions about trying to beat other students down, and surprisingly many of them are women. The trainers are very skilled, and push hard, but are also sympathetic to those of us who are maybe less fit, or need a helping hand to learn some of the techniques. Special mention must be made of Phet and Nadir, who are both excellent trainers, and friendly and welcoming to beginners. The gym itself has a boxing ring in the centre, a, larger training area where most of the classes take place to the right, and a smaller gym area with weights and machines to the left. The changing facilities are unfortunately a little small and cramp, so you may wish to train and then go home to get changed. The weights room areas don't have a great deal of machines, but there are never that many people, so you should get to go on them without queuing. With a very convenient central location, and friendly students and staff, it is a great place to start some boxing training in a un-intimidating environment. So give it a go you may find that fighting is good fun.

I do lots of Pilates and Yoga, and I love this amped up version of a pilates reformer class. There's less attention to detail and spinal articulation than Pilates, thus if you have back pain or are not very body aware, you may benefit more from a regular pilates class.

I was advised that there is reciprocity and if you are a member in the US, you can use the facilities in HK, as long as you have your card.

You have to have a membership card to swipe at the door to gain access or according to their front door, there is someone there to help you with questions about their gym starting at 11AM most days during the week. Anytime Fitness is basically a gym that is at your disposal 24 hours a day. I am familiar with Anytime Fitness in the US and I understand their niche, but I was kind of blown away simply by the cleanliness and bright decor of this space. There was barely anyone there, so how great to have this coveted spot to work out in. Antonio (a senior trainer) was helpful to me in answering questions and showing me around. Although I go to a competitor gym for my own gym needs in Hong Kong, know that Anytime Fitness is indeed in Hong Kong (Antonio indicated that this location had been open for about a year and also there are three locations in Hong Kong) and worthy of a peak.

Also it was a random time. Unlike some of the other Physical clubs, this one actually has a dedicated stretching area for people to use. But I still dislike that all of the Physical clubs are very strict about what equipment you can use. For example, a lot of the bosus, kettle bells, etc are only for personal training which is ludicrous but I digress. This club is also very conveniently located off of the foot bridge of the A5 exit of the Wan Chai MTR station. If you're looking for a bite to eat afterwards, there's plenty of food in the area.
