    Im looking to join a new gym next week. Its a pity Ben Dunnes is gone as that was a very well kitted out gym. I've zero interest in the pool so out of the two ive mentioned which has more equipment and better for someone training?

    try before yea buy, if possible, maybe try kingfishers pay as you go option, to see for yourself. never used goldstone, sounds like a well kitted out place though, kingfisher works for me. theyll be some good deals going now, maybe see if you can get a freebie from goldstone

    Goldstone is 100% a better gym for equipment etc they just don't have the pool. I was jn goldstone, changed to kingfisher because of the pool but have changed back. Kingfisher is very bare

    certainly sounds like it is, sounds well kitted out, and very nice indeed

    Do you know if WIT has a sauna or a steam room?

    Unless they've added it over the lockdown no not available to typical members anyway. There is a section for school athletes etc and maybe they have something but don't think so.

    Was a member there for 3 years, good gym. Small but has what you need really if your just looking to keep fit.

    Not that I'm aware of, looking forward to using them again myself, I really need the gym though, I'm piling on the weight
