Yup, yaya papaya type, walk around like he owns the place. Big but not lean.

But they're not paying the gym membership - YOU are. So, if anything, you have more right to that piece of equipment than they do.

Years ago, at CFC Republic Plaza, I had words with Augustine Tan because he was monopolizing 4 different machines/racks while doing circuit training with his client. And this was during peak morning hours! He backed down when I insisted on working in with his client on smith machine.

I guess should not argue from this point cos the trainer client does pay membership plus PT. Should argue from the point of customer service and friendliness. Should share no matter what or at most say the client left 2 sets will inform u when they finish etc.

I just became a First Club member after being with Fitness First for 10 months. Have a bunch of vouchers! If anybody wanna join, I can give a $8 joining fee voucher. PM me. :)

Recently visited the paragon branch. I noticed that they changed the squat rack and barbell (which is good). Now using Technogym brand. But I feels the empty barbell is lighter. Anybody know what's the weight? (my estimate is around 15kg)

I dunno but i just google for technogym barbell and got this pdf. u see which one u are looking for?

Yes lighter, because the ends are plastic, circumference also feels thinner.

Ah. it's 10kg. No wonder it feels light.

Yesterday morning: Performing Pendlay Rows.

Sales manager who was working out, took it upon himself to come over and tell me I'm disrupting other members because the weights were banging on the floor.

Took out my earphones and told him, HE'S disrupting me.

Sales manager continued to 'explain' to me that I could lift lighter or he could get someone to assist me.

Explained to him the mechanics of a Pendlay row, asked him to give it a try.

Sales manager walked away. Fool.

what is the fee for 1 year membership in FF O_o

Just signed up this month. Was quoted:
Monthly Membership: $158 + GST
If you sign up with 5 sessions of personal training: $138 + GST

(excludes admin fees and joining fees)

Wow. I think they increases price $10 per year.
Lucky I joined early last time.

ya..i think it is but given the branches also increase so i guess more branches, the price will go up a bit...

sign up 5 sessions of PT and get to pay 138 per month..for how long?
as long as you are a member?
