Why is embassy a nono? apart from the missing power rack, it's pretty decent. DBs up to 100lbs.
BodyAlignment - Bercham, on top of K1 claypot rice, RM50 per month, joining fees is RM50
a few Ala Hammer Strength Machines , all right gym, equipments are old, but sturdy, crazy ass leg ext machine though, nearly snapped my shit up
GT GYM/ VS FITNESS - Opposite Sam Poh Tong , RM170 joining fees, RM100 per month
Dbs only until 60lbs , Air conditioned. No rack.
Pro Muscle - Behind the store, joining fees not sure, RM 80 a month I think.
Never been here but friends with one of the guys that train here, sturdy equipment, dbs up to 35kg. However, the opening times are weird, I seldom see them open
BZ Gym - along of entrance to Taman Botani , RM170 joining fees, RM 80 a month.
Lack of rack, dbs only to 25kg , air condiitioned.
Power Man - Near Ipoh Jaya, this one run on yearly contract, Summed up to around RM100 a month as well. Or maybe less
Probably the most complete gym in ipoh , no hammer strength stuff though, but the price tag of paying everything advanced in cash and opening times that is not too convenient for me, and freaking hard to find parking.
Fitness Embassy - Admin Fees RM199 , depending on which package, the one I asked was student so per month RM138
Air conditioned with the best facilities. Stuck up PTs though, but apart from the missing power rack, everything else is find. Also , ridiculously hard to find parking since it's connected to Jusco
There's one behind Heritage Hotel, forgot the name, lousy ass gym TBH, price around the same, RM90 per month I think. They are more *fitness* oriented, lots of classes of this and that, didn't bother to pay attention because it has the some very very old equipment and ridiculously small area despite being in a bungalow. All the space given to spinning class and of that sort.

QUOTE(Jun-1 @ Jan 9 2012, 07:41 PM) the thing with fitness embassy is like you said parking is a b**** and also they charge like 300-400 plus minus for member fees. Do they have hammer strength eqs ? BA opening hours is very short, like 2.30pm-9.30pm. No hs, but they have some very fancy stuff. No idea, not a member there.

QUOTE(GreenSamurai @ Jan 9 2012, 08:37 PM) You went on Saturday night or Sunday? They are open from 6am to 10pm on weekdays and halfday on Saturday while close on Sunday I just pass by most of the time, but one of the guys that used to train there , Indian guy says that sometimes the opening times quite inconvenient for him. No idea, never the less it's one of those hardcore ghetto gyms which I also suggested to TS. Depend on him where to go.

QUOTE(B-0-Y @ Jan 3 2013, 12:06 AM) If begin from KFC gunung rapat, how to go powerman gym @ ipoh jaya? Petronas on your right, go straight pass 2 traffic lights. The moment you see two esso petrol stations directly opposite, turn in, same rows as the shops as the left esso station. This post has been edited by razorboy: Feb 17 2013, 08:38 PM

Anyway, BZ Gym has been taken over by new management. A very enthusiastic and young bodybuilder took over. Be sure to drop by from time to time I guess.
It was kinda shit when it was under the old management. It's a shoplot gym with a big ass Orange sign board.
