Looking for a gym
Diane, I don't think a Curves qualifies as a gym. When I read 'gym', I assume April is looking for a health club with workout equipment like treadmills and stairclimbers and stuff like that.
I'd be interested in hearing other people's suggestions for health clubs/gyms in the Seattle area. I need a gym with a great pool. I like to stretch, walk on a treadmill for thirty minutes and then do my laps. . . and I haven't found the perfect spot for me yet.
Hi April. I had gone to Curves in Everett for about 6 months and then found out I had a Thyroid problem etc and other things and I quit going. I have to say I had alot of energy after each workout. I was going 3-4 times a week. I had my RNY this past Dec 14th and now am ready to go back to a gym. I want very much so to go back to my old Curves on Everett Ave in Everett. They have 13 machines there now and I like the fact it's all women. I live in MountLake Terrace and we have a community pool here if I chose to go there. I also have been wondering about weights as well and I know they don't have them at Curves. Go check one out. They are all over the place.
Take care.......Pamela
I went to 24Hr Fitness and the costs weren't that bad depending on the contract you got.
I did like them cuz they were open all the time and had an array of equipment, classes and some had a pool which I really enjoyed.
I heard Bally's isnt too bad either. Find one close to your house or work though, otherwise it will become an inconvenience and you will stop going!!
Good luck!
