Now, about the gym floor itself. The equipment is modern, easy to use, and—here’s the best part—there’s usually not a queue for the popular machines. You know the frustration of waiting for the one treadmill that isn’t broken? Yeah, that doesn't happen here.

There are dozens of cardio machines, from treadmills with built-in TV screens (hello, guilty pleasure reality shows) to those clever cross-trainers that don’t feel like a medieval torture device. And if you prefer weights? They have plenty of dumbbells and machines that make you feel strong, not clumsy. You can find a quiet corner and just get on with it.
The Classes: Your Social Hour
If doing your own thing feels lonely, here’s where it gets fun. The group exercise classes are legendary. You’ve got your classic spin classes, where you can pretend you’re cycling through the French countryside while a motivating instructor yells encouragement. Or try Yoga Flow, where you might wobble, laugh, and fall out of a pose, but nobody cares because everyone else is doing the same.
I have a friend who goes to the Les Mills Body Pump class at 6:30pm every Tuesday. She says it’s the one hour a week where she gets to shout, sweat, and feel totally alive, without anyone asking her to make a decision or pour a glass of milk. It’s cheaper than therapy, and you get stronger arms as a bonus.
