Nope

I'm usually there either in the morning 6-730am or 5-730pm

I live in Burnaby so I either head there before or after work then head home.

The pins are slowly disappearing from the cable machines, they need to get some replacements. How hard is it, seriously

Either that or tell Nick. He's there most nights from 11pm until the morning.

I remember going there around midnight and stopping off again a few hours later before work and he was still sitting in the office surfing the net lol

Looks like 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu is opening up classes at Sport Central

Don't know about prices yet but I'm definitely interested to see if those of us that already have gym memberships will get a good deal on it.

They caged off the ring + jiu jitsu area cause 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu is there now.

Mon-Thurs: 730-9pm

Anybody take it yet? I asked the guy at the front desk last night and he said it's ~$80/month if you're a member but you have to sign a year long contract ...

The guy at the front desk doing the graveyard shift last night (er...or this morning - depends how you look at it ) said it should be $80/month if you sign a 1 year contract.

I'm going to assume they do it like how SC does it where they charge you monthly. Depends though cause I know Dynamic wanted all the money up front.

the treadmills are baaaaaaaad.
one person nearly injured himself because the treadmill suddenly "stopped"/stuttered at one point. at least two treadmills are acting up.

I think the 4th one from the left has a rip on the mat

pro

free weight go past 100lbs (something i look for)
lots of space lots of machines
24hour
cheaper membership then most.
basketball court
boxing ring
cool looking sports bar / lounge at the front

con

-only 1 location
-GHETTO.
-Dirty
benches are ripped and stinks as if some dirty freak that hasnt bathed in 3 months been using it. In reality i wouldnt be surprised if the benches weren't wiped down on a daily basis. Even if they were its not clean.
-Some free weights are in horrible shape as if they've been dropped a billion times from members who simply DONT give a fuck. They're loose and dangerous.

Frankly i wouldnt even go to the gym even if they offered free membership, I wouldnt want to put my entire company through this mess just to save a couple bucks. Unless they brought up the hygiene level at least on par with steve nash / fw/ golds gym etc. Then i'd consider going to sport central if membership was half the price of my current company membership.

The equipment there is simply too old and worn out.

This was from my own and my companies observation during summer 2009.

Frankly (the cleanliness) kept me from opening a company membership there.

Ill revisit sport Central in April again, and we'll see if conditions are better.
