I'm looking for a new gym, can you guys recommend me some?
I've been at sports central all my life but it's getting packed as fuck.
Must be:
-in vancouver richmond or burnaby..but not to far into burnaby.
-have lots of power/squat and bench presses (more then 4+ is preferable)
-relatively cheap, no more then 40+ a month
-has chalk available
-has chin up bars
-ventilated
I hope a gym like this exist in our area...

I hope a gym like this exist in our area... | Richmond Oval is a little more expensive than your budget but..
2 flat benches, incline and decline benches for barbells
6 power cages, 3 of these have grips for pull-ups/chin-ups
you can bring your own chalk here, i haven't had a problem with it
I would say there's a pretty open feel to it.

There is only 2 flat benches at the oval? that kind of sucks.
Yeah vancouver gyms suck shit..no chalk available and high as fuck fees. I'm tired of golds and steve nash, they are honestly terrible gyms compared to others. I mean only 2 squat racks? Seriously?

I still signed up since I'm paying $35 plus taxes, $25 for the keyfob and 3 months of free tanning (though I don't even know if I'm going to use that...). Shit and their expanding fast too... | What do you think of the gym so far? and how long is your contract?

Then after the dude finishes his set, he tells us he needs to use the barbell after he finishes using it for bench press lol.
And then had to scavenge for 2.5s and 5s because none of them were put back to their original places
but it's all good, perhaps i went in during the wrong time

Squat racks and benches are alright. You usually dont have to wait TOO long. But they do need more bars

Anyone here go to the Club 16 gym in Surrey? Any reviews on the gym?
Currently I am going to Steve Nash Delta and at $46/month ($558 paid at the start of the term) it's really expensive especially when I'm currently saving up for a vacation to the Philippines.
Primary pro of SN for me is distance. The gym is only 3 blocks away, and is walking distance. But I'm not really sure if the 10 minute drive to Club 16 is worth the $20 per month... gas is expensive these days.
I'm not really a bodybuilder, only really going to the gym to maintain my snowboarding legs over the summer and for cardio. How is the quality of the equipment/size of crowds?
Thanks guys.
