wellington gym

[two_phat]

Over the xmas and new years period I'll be sort of hanging round wellington - I still want to train, even if its not that strict. Can anybody recommend a gym that isn't going to cost me the earth for a coupla visits over this period??

If you leave your spandex at home and can cope with training without mirrors and shiny chrome, the PowerHouse is the place to train.

It's a great place to see what real training is all about, and be humbled by lifters who are bigger, stronger and faster than you! I remember turning up there for the first time and only managing 2 reps on their vicious Glute Ham raise machine & getting destroyed on their reverse hyper!

Plus they crank the best sounds around!!

POWERHOUSE GYM

272 Taranaki Street

WELLINGTON

or you could train girlie weights at Les Mills where I train lower end of Taranaki st :grin:

girlie weights! Your doing heavier weights than me...don't call them that!

you've just taken a slice of my masculinity. :oops:

[biggurl27]

Didn't mean it like that TP hehe whoops, just there will be some scary ass weights being slung around at powerhouse in comparison to members at les mills. Powerhosue sounds pretty cool and relaxed and suited to any one that wants to lift, les mills is all pretty and full of posers but does the bizzo. If you know anyone in Wellies they can usually get a guest past for mates wanting to train so may be worth looking into that.

haha no worries.

sweet thanks - ive got a coupla mates that i might text.

Go to the house, an experience not to miss.

Les Mills has train with a friend free pass at the moment if you know someone there, they should be able to get you in until early Jan. I don't think you actually have to train with them.

I hear BK has just opened his, do a search on here to find details, I think he's in Thorndon.

[two_phat]

Powerhouse is owned by OB,

BK has recently opened a small personal training type gym, there a post on this site about it somewhere.... under gyms and equipment I imagine!
