I've been three times now and I have to say I'm impressed. Possibly slightly bigger than Fitness4Less and certainly has more natural light.

Good range of equipment, machines etc.

They are also having an open day this Sunday if you are interested.]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/163036#msg-163036 Wed, 31 Oct 2012 19:48:20 +0000 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158892#msg-158892 forum@london-se1.co.uk (juanita) http://www.beormund.co.uk/]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158892#msg-158892 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 15:52:06 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158880#msg-158880 forum@london-se1.co.uk (james k)
It's by far the best gym I've been to, especially if you like classes. It is largely frequented by city boys however so not the cheapest option.]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158880#msg-158880 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 12:45:43 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158857#msg-158857 forum@london-se1.co.uk (serge) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158857#msg-158857 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 20:14:24 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158845#msg-158845 forum@london-se1.co.uk (Guy's street) I briefly moved to Fitness4Less, but it's £14.99 a month for a reason. I lasted 2 months before I went back to Soho Borough. Fitness4Less gets packed, and I mean packed at peak times. And because it's cheap it attracts younger people who haven't learnt how to put their weights back when they've finished. The machines are also wobbly and cheap.

It's useable, don't get me wrong, but it just doesn't compare to better gyms.[/quote]

I'd agree with that. I've been a member for over a year but I only really go for the classes during the week, and at weekends to use the free weights as it is close to impossible to get what you want otherwise. Hunting for weights that haven't been put back is a pain as well.

It is only the price that keeps me going, but I know I'm not working out anywhere nearly as effectively as I used to when I used to use Fitness First over in Victoria so I've thought about switching to Soho numerous times.]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158845#msg-158845 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 15:12:12 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158842#msg-158842 forum@london-se1.co.uk (James_2300) I briefly moved to Fitness4Less, but it's £14.99 a month for a reason.

If you join before it opens (as I have) it is only £10.99 a month - bargain. And it is going to be open 24/7

I'll let you know what it's like once it opens.]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158679#msg-158679 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 11:10:45 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158627#msg-158627 forum@london-se1.co.uk (stitch) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158627#msg-158627 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 08:29:58 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158607#msg-158607 forum@london-se1.co.uk (AndyABC) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158607#msg-158607 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 20:24:46 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158605#msg-158605 forum@london-se1.co.uk (boroughpaul) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158605#msg-158605 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 20:03:04 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158598#msg-158598 forum@london-se1.co.uk (James B-) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158598#msg-158598 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 15:58:03 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158592#msg-158592 forum@london-se1.co.uk (nat_ash) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158592#msg-158592 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 14:20:21 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158589#msg-158589 forum@london-se1.co.uk (rawrimadinosaur) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158589#msg-158589 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 13:39:01 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158587#msg-158587 forum@london-se1.co.uk (maurits) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158587#msg-158587 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 13:32:49 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158585#msg-158585 forum@london-se1.co.uk (boroughmark) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158585#msg-158585 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 13:27:21 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158579#msg-158579 forum@london-se1.co.uk (Guy's street)
I'm a member at Fitness4Less - £15 a month, no contract. It is quite busy at peak times, but is pretty big and well equipped if you don't mind going hunting for the correct weights. It seems that users of budget gyms aren't able to put things back when they're finished with them.]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158579#msg-158579 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 12:53:44 +0100 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158573#msg-158573 forum@london-se1.co.uk (rawrimadinosaur) Newly moved into the area and struggling to settle upon a gym. Firstly WOW they're all expensive round here and secondly I'm torn between Fitness first cottons and 37degrees.

I've read on some forums that 37degrees' staff/management can be a bit abrasive and occasionally bullying. Not really what I'm after for £80 odd a month ha!
So can anyone who goes there give me some insight?

Cheers!]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/158573/158573#msg-158573 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 12:35:28 +0100
