Hello.  Remember if you're thinking of joining a new gym they often give trial memberships - a good way to see if you like a place.

I have to agree, 'try before you buy' is always best. That way, you can see which gym your comfortable in

Be sure to visit at busy times too - some gyms are packed so you can't get on the equipment you need when it's busy.

It's essential - anywhere worthwhile should give you a few free sessions.

I have been involved with Gym Clubs all over the world - thye often rip you off.
