Fit Nation NZ 24/7 GYM — Attraction in North Island

I was shocked to read Clint's view as I have been training regularly at Global Fitness for over four years now and have found Global Fitness to be the complete opposite. It is such a great atmosphere and the people are very friendly. The equipment is regularly maintained and last year another pair of cable machines were installed as the existing set was always in demand. This year they have replaced the covers on the benches and seats to give them a fresh new look and also rearranged the gym so that it flows even better, including setting up a floor area for individuals who want to do things like step, floor, swiss ball, medicine ball work etc. With regards to the staff, I have always found them to be courteous, friendly and professional and they are only too happy to help or give advice at any time. I train once a week with a personnal trainer (Vikki), who is awesome to train with, she keeps me motivated and we often enjoy a good laugh. As for the suggestion box, I have used this on several occasions to report maintenance etc and each time it has been dealt with asap. I also appreciated that each time the manager made a point of thanking me and letting me know that it had been sorted. I have no hesitation in recommending Global Fitness but don't just take my word for it, come check it out...

The best gym in the area, hands down. They have everything you could ever want in terms of bodybuilding, powerlifting, functional training, or calisthenics. Some of the many pros include: endless denominations of dumbbells in both rubber and metal; extensive range of custom and standard machines for isolation exercises; a wide and spacious functional training room that is fully kitted out; heavy bags and a speed bag for martial art training; treadmills, stairclimbers and stationary bikes for cardio and warming up; a separate room for yoga and stretching; and last but not least, one of those big rubber tires for flipping out back. The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable, and all of them can be seen at times training in the gym on their own time. I would highly recommend training here.

There is however one thing that would make it that much better, and that would be if there were one or two deadlift...

I've trained for the past 25 years & been to several gyms but I can't think of one that quite ticks all the boxes for me in terms of what I feel is important & the right environment to workout in. We are blessed for what is on offer at Global Gym. Great classes, HIT 30 & Boxing workouts in a large spacious room seperate from the main weights area. These classes are an awesome effiency of time & we have alot of fun. Particularly important for me as a busy Mum, I need to get in, get it done & get out :) The main gym area is also very spacious & they have a large selection of free weights & machine weights, so you won't be standing around waiting for equipment. Most importantly is the experienced owners & staff who are more than willing to lend a hand or give advice, so you know you are in great hands. Protein shakes are...
