I go to Edgemont Club or Sunridge Mall WHC. Been slacking a bit.
Use to go to THE GYM, but the Edgemont Club made that place look like Jail.

How is that place? I see your car parked beside the Glenmore Inn sometimes

Membership fees? Size? Equipment? etc?

Thanks

Hey,

The place is pretty big, has all the necessary equipment. Most of the equipment is new. The fees are pretty decent, i paid roughly $300 for 14 months ($21 per month). What i like most about the place is that you never have to wait around to use the equipment, it is not a very busy place, which is what i like. The only down side is that there isn't very much eye candy :thumbsdow

I go to Lindsey Park, I've gone to that Club Fitness or whatever it's called on Macloed Trail once.

Nookmum I'm pretty sure i've seen you at Lindsey park as well, unless someone else was driving your car.

You want eye candy, come to the new Mount Royal Phs-Ed facility. It just opened up after being completely expanded and renovated. It's huge! Suposedly the largest in western canada now!

Cool, I go to mount royal, but i'm only part time, how do you get in? I'm assuming you need a student i.d card, which i haven't gotten...

Davan

Yep, you need to get your ID card "coded" to get access to the facility. Just go to the customer service counter on the 1st floor. (around U130, I think). :)

Ya to me Lindsey will always be Lindsey Park. I play volleyball there on the men's league and go play for fun sometimes. I see a white Impreza there all the time and some other nice rides. Lots of eyecandy very distracting but very humid.

I go to Golds on Canyon Meadows... good equip, decent fees (but I signed up right as it opened) they are kinda expensive now.

Hakkola

Yeah, it is very very humid, it's the only thing i don't like, it used to bother my skin. But it's all good now.

I always see a couple fine hunnies there, it can get distracting, i agree.

* Do i get my i.d card at the same place? Is it too late to get an I.D card. Can i still get free use of the facility even though I'm only part time this semester?

I just got my 2-year membership at California Fitness Express (formerly Club Fit). The place is pretty cool.. it's large with high ceilings, so it doesn't get too hot in there. The downside is I *used* to see honeys there, but now they're gone (?!?!?) :banghead:

I think they all went to Edgemont Club or Arbour Lake YMCA... :drool:

(I still prefer the U of C, but can't go there no more.. even Alumni is $330/year) :madred: :bullshit:

Man club fit was such a trash place to work out!! I have heard that the walls are bright orange in there... but hopefully this place is better.

Me too. I signed a 2 year contract thats up in May. I think I'm paying $40 a month. Haven't been able to find the time recently to go and work out though,

If club fit is the place on Mcleode it's been completely revamped, like all the equipment is new.

Sweet man, we should go sometime. When do you normally go? I have been going there almost since it opened 2.5 years ago. I got 2 years for $564... now I am paying $40 month to month they are a bunch of scam artists there!!

I've probably seen you there a bunch of times and not even known it... :nut:

:rofl: I used to go with my buddy earl yin the morning. We'd usually meet at the gym around 6. I haven't gone in a few months though. Golds are scam artists. I've been double charged 5 times now :madred: They always find something else to blame it on though.
We should go sometime, might as well get my moneys worth :) Anytime after 6pm is good for me.

maybe I wouldn't have seen ya, 6 am is way to frickin early for me man :rofl: Depending on what shift I have that would work for me.

They have double charged a couple of my friends a bunch of times too. A channel was investigating them cutting a bunch of classes and not refunding peoples money and friend of mine was interviewed about it. Seems if it's not one thing it's another!

Yeah- 6 am was a little extreme. Thats why we don't go so often anymore. I'm lucky if I can get up at 7:00 to be at work on time.

You get your smartcard at the Smartcard office in F103. It's never too late.

They'll have you in the computer, so it's just a matter of sitting down for a picture, then out pops the card.

All full-time and part-time students get free membership.

For those who aren't students, membership is $399 for a full year. $179 for 4 months. $49 for a single month. $8 for a single drop in. Or $59 for a 10 visit punch card.

I might see you Saturday then, depends if we go to Sundre Friday night or not.
I forgot you said you had school Wednesday and Thursday nights- thats why you can never make it to the 403Honda meets.

RCBVtec
09-25-2002, 11:47 AM
exactly! Kinda sucks but whatever not much I can do about it. Well let me know friday if you are going or not that way I can look for ya on sat. I won't have a computer to check on sat, one at home is screwed!

HRD2PLZ
09-25-2002, 11:53 AM
Alright, sounds good. I kinda doubt we'll go to Sundre. And if I make it to the gym Thursday and get back into the routine then I'll be there almost everyday again :thumbsup:

RCBVtec
09-25-2002, 12:00 PM
sounds good man... gotta get back into it!! :thumbsup:

I think it's like $50 a month but you get to go to all the WHC's in Calgary which is handy sometimes and a change in scenery is always good. I don't know the details though. I use to pay $30/month at THE GYM but seriously you get what you pay for. Back in the days Kensington Club Fit is where it was at. So nice up there with lots of eye candy but unfortunatley it went down.

Peace
