I joined a gym

Today during lunch, I went for the free trial at Fitness First gym with my colleague who is a member. I liked it so much, after our workout, I signed up immediately for membership.

The workout area is nicely spaced out. There is no ridiculous fishbowl mentality like Planet Fitness at Orchard. There is a nice pool next to the gym, and the workout rooms for yoga/pilate/etc are in between.

But the main factors that made me sign up were

1) There’s one across the road from my office. I can go during lunch or after work.
2) They give you workout clothes so you need only bring your shoes.
3) The fees are payable monthly, unlike the rest which ask you to pay for 2 yrs upfront. I have a short attention span. I may not go after awhile.

It costs a little more, SGD138/month but I think it’s worth it because I dont have to plonk down a more then a year’s worth of membership fees at a go.

expensive! I’m paying around $80 for C. Fitness. I usually go after school, before the rush hour so it’s not packed at all.

2) They give you workout clothes so you need only bring your shoes.

This is definitely a big plus point. Still, expensive!!

white T-shirt/Singlet and blue shorts.

It looks kinda good actually. Hangs off pretty nicely on most body types.

The whole place is like really clean and sterlizied so it never crossed my mind that there might be germs.
