Richmond Oval...$41.xx per month...a bit expensive, but its so much more than just a gym
drop in hockey, stick and put and all the drop in classess for free makes up for the more expensive rate.
Lots of cardio machines which is nice

It has gotten WAY less busy at all times of the day now. I tried Steve Nash a few times, fuckin hated it. Too busy, no parking. Gold's always has parking, and it's never shit packed.

What time u usually go needles?

Watermania. Nothing like busting off a few laps and then relaxing in the hot tub after a workout.

I use to as a kid. It's such a shitty gym. No squat rack or anywhere to deadlift.

I use to go to renfrew as well and I'd say its better. They have dumbbells heavier than 80lbs and they also have a rack.
