Can anyone tell me how the gym is at the resort? What kind of equipment do the have? Free weights? What do the dumb bells go up to? Thanks in advance!!!
don't get too excited about the gym, couple of ok treadmills, free weights up to 35 lbs if I remember, simple universal machine, thats about it. Enough stuff to do a general workout. After going to the gym with the idea to work out, I ended up at the sexy pool bar and did 12 oz curls... by the hundreds...:daveandmo:
Lol. Thanks! Its always a crap shoot at the resorts with gyms! This will be our 18th resort and we have had some really good gyms and some terrible ones!
Two treadmills, Three ellipticals, to bikes, smith machine with lat pull up bar, chess press, two benches, free weights to 45 lbs. Some olympic wieghts, matts and a couple balls.
They do have a Smith machine with a scattering of plates to maybe get you to about 225lbs...not a full olympic set. Bring your own water bottle, because they just have those little funnel shaped paper cups. If you're lucky, the place will be fairly empty..otherwise be prepared to have to wait a while to use anything. We had our best luck mid morning before lunch.
It depends on the week. Normally it is empty and you will have no trouble. This past January though I walked in on the first morning around 7:30 and there were about 8 people in there (I guess I should have remembered a few of them from the night before but I had to reintroduce myself). You should have no trouble most days.
