CityFitness Lyall Bay — Attraction in North Island

I have been a member of several gyms over the years, tried cheap alternatives to my usual which was the main les mills on corner dixon and taranaki, Wellington. City Fitness is the best and here are my reasons. But before I go through the list, the one thing that bothered me about other gyms are those assisted machines. Some are so unnatural moving they actually do more harm then good, however the ones at City fitness pass the test. Some assisted machines there to me are pointless like arm curl machines and others that feel weird, but it's an easy fix by using cables or free weights.

1. First off the cost which is $6.99
2. The leg machines are affective and safe
3. Free weights incl bench and squat rack
4. Bike room and stretch room
5. Friendly staff and PTs
6. It's a no judgement gym, all levels of fitness
7. Best showers and changing rooms/toilets
8. 24 Hour Access

City fitness had the use of my money over the 12 months. I seems very unfair. Warning - don't go for the full paid up front membership. They won't negotiate...

Second time I joined this gym and they didn't set up my card access properly. Same thing happened when I first joined 2 years ago. I could not enter the gym one evening. The next day the staff member resolved the issue but didn't make any apology, he simply handed me a form saying you need to sign this(declaration that I won't let anybody else in), well why wasn't I given the form when I joined? Waste of time.

This gym is fine if you don't need to deal...
