Welcome! (Or, more to the point - welcome back! :P)

For what it's worth, I go to Club Physical Te Atatu. It's good, and the members are reasonably serious about lifting (it's certainly more than just fitness studio), but it's probably not ultra-hardcore if that's what you're after!

We've also got members here to go to the WestWave and Momentum gyms, both in Henderson. I'm sure they'll be happy to help you.

I'm a West Waver - pretty small gym but I got the swim & gym combo so I do lengths on some of my non-lifting days.

It's got a real community feel to it - people of all ages, sizes & states of fitness. It's a real mixed bag. Everyone's friendly as hell too (you get the odd arrogant newb but they're normally short term lifters :lol:

Yeah - from lookin at the pics section I think I've seen you in there. I used to go at mad hour around 5pm but I do freelance work now so try to get in there after lunch when it's reasonably empty.

I am also from Birmingham and a staunch supporter of the Blues (what happened this year?) The only redeeming factor was the manager Steve Bruce

I train at the Colisseum which is very much dedicated to weight training with a good range of free weights in excellent order.It is in the centre of Auckland right along from the Mt.Eden prison but has good parking and a good atmosphere.Thats the gym not the prison-the atmosphere there is lousy.

Another lad from Birmingham has just emigrated and also trains there.Come and have a look you will be most welcome. Last time I was back in Birmingham it was a quid for a workout and the heaviest dumbells were 50lbs with a boxing ring in the middle of the gym but now I understand the gyms are top class.When are you coming out?

Sorry mate got my dates mixed up but yes the Colisseum is now BTS owned by Frank and Jody Bulgaris.

Would be good to see you and have a chat at least.

I am there every night except Wednesday from 4-30 pm to 7-30 pm

Just ask for Mr. New Zealand 1964 or email me on private email.

Cheers
