I just joined this gym a few weeks ago (although Flirty Girl is still my favourite!) and the experience has been, very different for me. I was able to join up through a corporate rate, which was the only reason I would sign up to become a member. That, and also the availability of hot yoga. Aside from those reasons, I would not recommend joining this gym. First of all, the staff are very sales-oriented and will stop at nothing to sign you up or sell you some expensive health package. Secondly, the staff lack professionalism when it comes to keeping their appointments, let alone meeting them on time. My sister and I have had many cancelled appointments and weren't even notified beforehand. I can't stand the staff there. They all seem to be very immature when it comes to dealing with gym members.

When you go for your initial consultation, stand your ground and refuse to be sold to ridiculous expensive packages (unless you want to, of course). I told the staff right off the bat that I was not interested in a personal trainer, or a nutritionist of any sort. That saved me a lot of time from them badgering me into buying a package.

If you can ignore the staff and get past all of that, being at the gym will be a lot more enjoyable.

The nice thing about the place is that there is 1) hot yoga 2) cold sauna, hot sauna and steam room 3) cardio machines with individual TVs! My life goes by a lot easier when I have a TV hooked up to my machine. 4) the hours are flexible. These are the only positive things about Extreme Fitness.
