QUOTE(emino @ Sep 18 2018, 03:27 PM) Kinda regret dual membership lol. CF is always crowded, the hot water are not always hot and the locker so smol and some branch you need to bring your own lock. Advantage is I can gym where FF is not available, but given the chance, I will actively seek out FF branches. But on the bright side, under my company corporate rate now I basically pays the same amount for dual access compared to before (my company havent join corporate rate thingy back then), so not really rugi anything? lol Owhhh don't have to regret, it's just paying for the convenience  and you needed the convenience. Yes I agree with that part about the lock. It's quite a hassle if you forgot to bring it. And in fact, even with padlock, I've heard of cases where locker(s) were broken into. Just be careful of your belongings.

QUOTE(zellleonhart @ Sep 18 2018, 10:08 PM) I heard about AIA Vitality discount but AIA Vitality is only available FOR AIA insurance policy holders. I don't have any insurance plan with AIA, what is the cheapest plan I can take if you know? And the RM12x price after discount is only for the first year right? Yes, it's only for AIA insurance policy holder. I've heard from some members that you can sign up with AIA Medical Card. However it's better to check with an AIA agent and see if this is truly eligible (lets not rely on hearsay): https://www.aiavitality.com.my/vmp-my/how_to_join It's not RM12x ya, it's around RM170 after the 25% membership rebate (monthly). This is fixed, and no changes at the moment. I've signed up for Vitality for >1 year and still paying RM170+. If you're hardworking enough to hit the x number of gym sessions (ughhh 30 or 36? sessions) each quarter, you're eligible for 30% cashback of your membership. This amount will be refunded/ transferred directly to your bank account

QUOTE(zellleonhart @ Sep 20 2018, 10:33 PM) Thanks for the info. It's RM170+ before the 30% cashback, so after the cashback (if hit the criteria) will be RM120+ am I right? Yes around there... but I've been a member for around 4-5 years so my rate is different vs a newly joined Platinum member (likely). So yours could be slightly more, depending on the membership rate now.

QUOTE(birdman8 @ Oct 1 2018, 07:55 PM) look like they phasing out those outlets that are based in office block More patrons in shopping malls areas Right on that... but very sad le  it's one of my favourite club. Axis as well (and they closed it too!). While these clubs may be old, they're convenient to find parking, rate (parking) is reasonable and are within my reach with no problem. Really heartbroken that they're closing MML! It was just renovated a year+ ago too

QUOTE(AureusX @ Oct 10 2018, 01:20 PM) Anyone here from Fitness First Manulife? I am thinking of signing up there as it is close to my work place. Here are my questions: 1) condition of the equipments (especially the weights area) 2) peak time 3) parking If there is anything else you'd like to add, feel free to comment. The more info I can get, the better! I've got some bad news for you. FF MML is closing at the end of Nov. If you work nearby then probably somewhere around Curve or 1MK.

QUOTE(AureusX @ Oct 10 2018, 01:56 PM) Oh nooooooo  Is there any indication if any other gym will be taking over? Nope, sadly it's closing down for good... FF direction is more to Malls now instead of office/ corp buildings.

QUOTE(birdman8 @ Nov 16 2018, 10:12 AM) are they going to get rid of the soft drink machine? this notice already there for age. Hope they do, shouldn't encourage consumption of high sugary drinks. Just leave 1 sports drink like Gatorade will be fine imo. The fruits infused water is very popular in 1MK, will be happy if all gyms will have it.

QUOTE(Walaoeh! @ Dec 31 2018, 07:44 PM) Ops, too late to see this.. If already signup, can i still ask for discount with aia vitality card? Sure you can. Show the front desk your Vitality card and ask them to do the membership adjustment fee for you. It's quite fast. In the following month you'll see the new fee reflected in your statement.

QUOTE(a-y @ Jan 10 2019, 08:22 AM) Yes, all 3 will be exceptionally crappy now, just like FF. I fail to understand if there are any consumer protection law against such monopolisation, Uber was bought by Grab resulting in lack of competition and consumer being the ultimate looser. In my opinion its about time to support smaller neighbour hood gyms instead of these big chains. Mergers and acquisitions happen so it's no biggie. There are still other gyms (chain/ ghetto) around that you're free to join/ go for. Gym is also about location and facilities, apart from service. As long as the basics are well maintained and caters to my requirement/ what i want, personally i have no issue with it - be it a monopoly or smaller gym. If you're really unhappy with the gym, lodge a complain.

QUOTE(birdman8 @ Sep 10 2019, 11:26 PM) interesting. Traditional human fitness class instructors can be replaced by virtual classes screen. In future, gyms may not need so many body combat, steps, body pump etc. human instructors any more. Pros and cons. I think one of the gym did before. You lost the human touch/ interaction. Worse is that no one can correct you if do wrongggg. I see it as good replacement tool when instructor unable to make it for class last min. Instead of cancelling class can do virtual

QUOTE(confusedkid @ Sep 24 2019, 10:12 AM) FF sent two emails actually. Read it again and you will see that the RM 10 upgrade offer only applies to dual access members. There is another email for platinum members where the offer is RM 15. Anybody here planning to upgrade to the club membership? The RM 10 offer is pretty tempting but I'm not sure what I'm getting out of this deal Will there be a swimming pool in bsc?  Parking in bsc is also so expensive  Now that you mentioned... yes I got the 2nd email too. Really confusing  might as well send 1 email and state it clearly on the different tier/ type of membership and the amount to upgrade. True on parking. My friend says just park outside (but dang, i recall it's a nightmare trying to look for parking). So no thanks, not upgrading my membership. But I do wonder if they allow walk-in. I.e. if i have event/ meeting inside BSC and can drop by there for workout on adhoc basis, wonder what'll be the walk-in rate (if any) for existing member.

QUOTE(birdman8 @ Oct 2 2019, 05:32 PM) Bad news: member fees will increase. But did not disclose how much is the increment. Good news: older member price will increase at the lower rate. No price increase for old member who already with them for 6 years and more. Free one month access to CF in Nov 19 for existing FF members. Free two weeks guest access pass. Dang... tomorrow I'm going to check with the FOH how many years i've been with them. Didn't keep track. QUOTE(emino @ Oct 3 2019, 06:43 AM) Curious how they counted the 6 years. I was on an old plan last time (6 years, normal platinum), but now on new plan (1 year on dual). Would they count me as new member or old one? Hmmm try asking the FOH and see what they say. Imo you should be eligible to keep your membership rate because you merely changed your plan.

QUOTE(stanum @ Oct 17 2019, 11:24 PM) Any new members joining Fitness First Garden Mall? I just joined and feel a bit lonely doing alone the workout, wanna chit chat with those guys doing workout but scared disturbing their workout. I think its not intrusive when you talk to them abit in between their sets, especially if/when you need help or pointers. If you workout frequently at the same timeslot, chances are, some of them will be familiar to you. Catch a quick chat when you bump into them at the locker or when they're done. I go Gardens outlet occasionally but its irregular.
