Guys, any comment on the Chi Fitness Gym?
The club in Damen.
*
Place is quite small with limited machines and gets very crowded around 6 pm to 9 pm. At that time there are also a few groups of 'hardcore' guys who use up half the dumbbells or the loose weights and leave them laying around after they are done. You will also need to wait for a while if you want to use the pulley, the same gang of guys insist on doing 3 or 4 different cable cross overs x 4 or 5 sets each bangwall.gif

If you work out anytime before the evening there would only be 2 or 3 people using the weights or machines, so you partically have the gym to yourself.

The management seem to put too much emphasis on the grid/ cardio/ zumba members, hence you get more cardio machines and crossfit space than the weight area.

But they are planning to move to the 4th floor for a large floor space and they just added a new smith machine (so now there is a squat rack + 2 smith machines)

Wow, a very good review.
I planning to sign up, but a bit hassle coz I saw the space not so big.
