Do you go to the gym?

dati pero ngayon hinde na  ::)  kung alam ko lang na lolobo ka pag tumigil ka mag gym hinde na sana ako nag gym. Hanggang simula lang yung ganda ng katawan ko  ;D

pabaya ka lang. sayang nga yung na-gym mo.

wala na ata makakatapat sa kamahalan ng FF pero mas ok ang mga tao (generally) at mas gusto ko yung variety ng machines / classes / amenities.

I think lolobo ka kase malakas pa dn ang pagkain mo eventhough wala ka ng work out. Compared dun sa malakas ang kain mo at me work out ka. Meaning, nabuburn mo ung calories plus nagbubuild ka dn ng muscles since masmadameng protein ang kinakain mo..

So kung iistop k n magworkout eh change n lng your diet na hinde ka magkakaron ng excess calories na pwedeng mastore sa katawan mo as fat..

natry q n ang ff. ung free 3x na trial nila. ok nmn.. kaso kung icocompare sa slimmer's world eh masmura dun ng kalahati..

puro weights lng nmn kc ang important for me..

ah okei...
ano ba mga facilities nila?
may steam bath din ba sila saka sauna?
how bout free sodas and coffee?
kung meron sila, siguro i'll try... ipi-freeze ko yung account ko sa FF. :D

Hmm, sa slimmer's eh dq pa sure.. Kase sumulyap lng aq sa loob ng men's cr to check at ang nakita q lng eh mga lockers at me shower room.. D aq pumasok to see kung merong sauna/steam bath. Pero I'll go check this Sunday pa.. Sa drinks.. eh I only saw water dispenser.. Isa pa, masama kase ang sodas... nakakataba xa since puro sugar xa.. So for me, its inappropriate na magkaron ng sodas sa isang gym. Coffee is ok on the other hand..

Sa FF, confirmed q n meron lahat nung cnabe mo. Yun nga lng, d gaano helpful ang mga gym instructor dun specially kung magpapa-spot ka kase walang bayad yun. Kaso nga lng, mahal si FF..


well,, wala naman talagang hindi masama lalo na pag sosobra eh.. diba? uhm.. mapa-kopi o soda man yan..

marvinofthefaintsmile

true! pag sobrng kopi eh bka hinde k makatulog nun at magpalpitate ang heart mo..

pag sa soda nmn eh bka tumaba ka. in fact, sa US eh naglbas p cla ng advertisement na kung san ung tao eh umiinom ng softdrinks pero ung laman nun eh human fat. (hinde tlga xa fat pero pinagmuka lng to convince people n nkktaba ang softdrinks.) Hmm, forgot q kung Pepsi or Coke un..

i hear maraming former customers na galit sa FF due to sexual harrassment, payment problems and worthless instructors. may isang malaking thread sa pex.

tingin ko totoo yan.

marami nga. kasi napansin ko sa change area may security guard na.
payment problems, ang bilis kasi mag-swipe ng FF sa cc.
worthless instructors kasi meron sila isang trainer nun dating janitor lang. nagkataon malakas lang magbuhat kaya tila marunong.

hindi rin tumutulong ang mga trainer sa pag-spot at pagturo ng tamang paggamit kasi walang bayad. andun lang sila para makahakot ng mga pera..

I had a feeling na true yan. Buti pa sa dating gym na pinagwoworkoutan q eh tumutulong sa spot ang instructor kaht n walang bayad. Kaso since owned xa ng company eh d naq nkkpg train dun. resign n kc eh.

Pero xempre, dpende pa dn sa preference mo. Mdaming perks cla FF at GG eh.. Aq kc eh only care about sa equipments. Tsaka ayokong kinukulit aq lagi kaya I always pay in cash.

FF ako pero nagbabayad din ako in cash.. unlimited din ang visits.. kahit ilang beses ka sa isang araw at kahit araw-araw kang mag-gym pwede.

marvinofthefaintsmile

nga pla sa slimmers n pinupuntahn q eh walang softdrinks (nkakataba), coffee, sauna, steam bathroom, shampoo, soap, at hot shower.

Bale eto ung pag compare q against FF..

Pero since mga dumbells at barbells lang ang care q eh ok na sakin to. Plus half the price pa xa at me 1 whole year infinite visit aq. Masmabait pa sakin ang mga gym instructor d2 at tinutulungan aq compare sa FF na inignore lng aq since walang bayad ang pa-spot.. Pwede pang magfreeze ng account if ever lalbas aq ng country.

angelo

golds lang may number of visits.
sa FF unlimited use din.

ano ba difference nung FF platinum? may naka-try na?

judE_Law

pwede ka ring mag-freeze ng account sa FF.. tungkol naman sa mga instructor o personal trainer, may ilan namang mababait sa FF.. nung bago pa ako meron akong mga hindi pa alam gamitin na equipments, tinuruan ako tas binigyan din ako ng mga simpleng exercise ...



as for the FF Platinums naman...
eto yung mga advantages niya..
Limited Membership If you dislike crowds or prefer a smaller club atmosphere,  because Fitness First Platinum limits the number of its clients.

Whereas the regular Fitness First branch would have an average number of 40-60 clients per class, the Fitness First Platinum class would average 5-10 clients per class.

Fitness First Platinum Trinoma Cycling Room Fitness First Platinum Trinoma has the latest version of the bikes that are used for RPM, which has improved features like a more secure seat and a front water bottle holder for easier access.


Fitness First Platinum RCBC Swimming Pool and Jacuzzi Fitness First Platinum RCBC also caters to the water loving client as it offers a lap pool with an adjacent Jacuzzi with swirling waters to massage tired muscles. A zen design of the pool area soothes the Fitness First Platinum client’s senses as well.
Fitness First Platinum Workout Shorts, Shirt and Towel Plus Bath Towel To make the workout experience more convenient for the Fitness First Platinum client, workout shorts, shirt and towel plus a bath towel are provided.

Inside the locker room, toiletries such as moisturizer, powder, alcohol, oil, cotton, and cotton buds are also provided.

thanks. i know about the added perks. i meant the experience. do you really feel you belong to a more exclusive club? pro spinners na rin sa regular clubs.

marvinofthefaintsmile

Hmm, I like Gold's because of equipments.. Pero sobrng onte ng bench nila so pipila q for bench presses at shoulder presses. Pero un nga lang, inignore aq ng mga instructors dun. Huhuhuhu. Tuloy nagmuka aq ng slightly tanga nung na-angat q ung buong equipemnt nila w/c is hinde nmn dpat. so tinignan q p ung mga joints ng machine para malaman pano xa magfunction.. Ung shrug machine nga pala un. hehehe.

Mashappy p dn aq overall sa slimmers..

^Basta iwas ka muna sa free weights, lalo na military press.lol Or consult ka muna sa doctor para sure. Kasi ako, pinagbawalan muna ako magbuhat ng mabibigat noon kaya puro cabled equipments lang ang pwede sakin.hehe
