I'm not at the uni I'm at JMU, but my friends use the Liverpool Uni gym. It's on the campus, near to the little Tesco if you know where that is. You get it for cheaper if you're a Uni of Liverpool member.

I think they do but it's at the IM marsh campus where the sports students are. Grand Central has a gym which JMU students can use though

I've been told it isn't that good and is quite expensive. As for the weights I couldn't tell you, I'm a lazy bugger and don't attend a gym :tongue:

No free weights tis poop.

Adelphi Hotel all the way babyyyy
The Uni Of Liverpool website says that JMU students can join there gym at the lovely rate of £120 a year.

Thats still good...£10 a month, but i'd prefer £50 a year :P, especially considering the internet is £155 (according to the leaflet)
But to be honest I tent to do cardio and static weights rather than free, so its not such a big issue for me...although I do them every now and then.

The Uni of Liverpool gym is £92.50 for Liverpool Students, slightly more for JMU / LIPA / Hope, or it's £50 just for swimming and the courts.

By the way, the Uni of Liverpool gym does have freeweights.

Ta BeccaE,

Reply 18
errr, i've never counted! hazard a guess at about 20 though. Yeah, weds afternoons are just busy cos everyone has them off for sports.

Only wanted a ball park fig. For some reason I had this vision of only being a couple. Won't hold you responsible for my disappointment if there are less than 20 :smile:
