Ah, so you commute back and forth or?
It must take you 1 hour+ daily = 2 hours lost on travelling. :frown:

Warwick is too far for me to commute.

Why don't you work out at your university campus gym? :s-smilie:
the exit lol
I don't actually care about the people/atmosphere there. I'm not at the gym to make friends. As long as there's decent equipment and it's not stupidly overpriced I'll use it.

1) is ideal but straps exist so it's not a major problem. But fairs
2) I've never been in a gym where this is a problem
3) Why does that matter? You choose your gym on peak hours?! They're all 5-6:30 lolz
4) fairs
5) bruh 3g/4g
6) Hardcore gyms are so rare. Im lucky to live near on of 3 in the entirety of Devon lol :tongue: But yeah, who cares if you have the rest. You make your own atmosphere B)

I forgot to mention whether if the gym has bands for people to use I.e mobility work etc. :smile:
Price, distance, hours, equipment (quality and availabiliy), atmosphere, contract terms, other facilities.

About half an hour each way yeah, I take a car with a friend :smile:

I have memberships at both, university gym doesn't have the same atmosphere though and the times are ****, when I have essays and stuff due it really helps being able to train at 4am in the morning or 11pm without a fuss :p: Warwick has a powerlifting soc now though so I'll probably train there a bit more next year, president can box squat 220kg which is pretty sick.
I was about to say the same thing Sara
