我呢排諗住都係時候要開始keep住做gym..
So I checked out the fitness centres in Richmond online. (I live in Richmond)
Does anyone know any good places??

I heard Fitness World is not good becuz the ppl are pushy and just want u to pay~
I checked out Gold's Gym too but they dun hv much info on the website~
Watermania one seems pretty good...~

我想問下有冇人recommend邊間好？
有personal trainer就梗係更加好啦，不過唔知貴唔貴同埋會唔會呃你錢呢？

Thanks!!

Wow FitCity seems to be pretty good!!
My first choices are not FitCity or Watermania~
And does anyone know the cost for FitCity? I couldn't find it on the website~

Or is there any other Fitness Centre u guys recommend??

Thanks!!

when I joined their membership i rmb it was $300sth for 1 year....
but that was only for working out on ur own....
i duno about the cost with a trainer tho....
but the very first time you go ....u can ask for a free 2 week trial first....and after that...someone will come talk to you about memberships and stuff

我有0係 Thompson Community Center train 過一排﹐其實以Community Center 黎講算是幾好﹐環境比較乾淨舒服, machines 比較多, free weight 比較少。
Richmond area, 我會首選 TCC.
如果personal trainer, 睇拒乜程度﹐但至少都要有 BCRPA 執照。經驗不多的PT, 約$25, 如果出名, 比賽經驗豐富可以去到$100/ lesson. 我之前教練收費約$75/ lesson.

順便講埋。讀 personal trainer course 時﹐基本上有 D program design 既samples. 主要都係 circuit/whole body workout. 有D 質數比較差既PT, 對任何clients 都係用死一種program, 求求其其又一堂。但相對有 heart, 有 passion 既PT, 就會以clients 要求, 配合 clients 能力而用心design 個 program. 所以挑選PT 時要比較小心。

Wa...seems complicated and very hard to find a good place lei...

And TCC is what??

sakura, i guess u r a "she"? if u just want to hit the gym to keep fit/loose weight, you might as well just use your bc climate action dividend, get a pair of good running shoes, and go do some interval running for 30 mins each day. no need to go to gym.

The onli thing is...
I hv quite severe asthma...
And I work with toddlers alreadi during the day~

I wanted a personal trainer becuz I didn't wanna go ahead and start working out and get my asthma going while the allergy season is around as well.
I wanted to make sure that I m doing a good workout that will tone my body down a bit but yet not doing so much cardio to trigger my asthma~
