how much would be it be for joining fitness first???

I'd have to agree with SS, with gyms here it could be hit-or-miss so you'd want to actually check them out and get a trial before you commit.

I used Fitness First in Singapore and loved it there, but the HK gym just seemed less professional - as SS stated, they refused to let me speak to a trainer until I signed up. I heard enough horror stories about California Fitness, so avoided that. Seasons was a bit inconvenient for me on the weekends, so I settled on Pure Soho and have no complaints. I got a corporate deal, so I'm actually paying less than some of my friends at Seasons and California Fitness.

One suggestion I have is that if you know you're going to be in HK for atleast 2 years, sign up for the 2 year package. It's significantly cheaper than the 1 year package.

I have read mix response for different gym. Looks like really comes down to physically being there to see and look for myself. Thanks for all the recommendation/tip/advise ..

the guy who gave me a quick fitness assessment told me I needed to lose 12kg - I had just been working out intensively with weights 4 times a week for 4 months (in another country), was 166cm and a (toned) 64kg.

They were obviously reading off the "Asian female" chart.

Anyone a member of the Waterfall clubs? There's one in Olympic and TaiKoo. Wanted to know if it was worth considering.
