LF: good gym between st augustine and aranguez

Corn Bird · Postby **Corn Bird** » July 12th, 2011, 3:36 am

the gym in aranguez is called 'planet fitness'. equipment is new and gym is a little less rowdy than millenium at centre of excellence (probably because the owners manage the place). air conditioning could be better though; place is a little stuffy. some of its crowd seems to be from uwi

checked it out yday. its ok. very clean, limited parking. $350 a month. Free weight section upstairs looks a lil cramped though.

and among their rules is long pants and gloves...neighter I traditionally wear to the gym but will try it out since its like ten mins from where I live depending on traffic.

La Joya is the place to go, value for money, spin aerobics, weights, swimming et al, lots of parking, security, and long hours. also have other disciplines, karate, dance, badminton basketball volleyball, gymnastics and they have a squash court, good trainers....give them a try, its worth it...

the weight equipment may not be as snazzy as 'go figure' or 'planet fitness' but it's perfectly fine for weight lifting. treadmills have a habit of breaking down at any gym -- when I checked out 'go figure' two of the six treadmills weren't working

COE isn't the greatest but it's workable if you're nearby

I miss bio fitness

what are the opening hours at COE?
Currently at the Aranguez gym and they close too early...9pm on weekdays and 2pm on saturdays...
Also, La Joya worth trying?

Sounds correct except it most likely is 4:30 am to 10 pm on mon to thurs. Also it is a little crowded from 5-7 am with the 'before work' crowd; difficult to get a treadmill at these times.
