So, I am looking to join a new gym (haven't had one since graduating from U of T a year ago)

Anyone have a gym they recommend located in the downtown core? What about price/amenities?

What are your favorite tracks/mixes to listen to working out?

I absolutely love the athletic club in the TD waterhouse tower. It's an older crowd, but its got absolutely everything, including a pool. A young exec membership (under 30 yrs of age) runs about $100/mth.

I don't go to my gym to socialize, but if that were important to you, I'd suggest going somewhere else as most people keep to themselves.

I actually like your prog mix .. i find that easy to workout to

I go to Goodlife at Eaton Centre (South co-ed, but there is also another one on the North side), and I pay 29.50 plus tax bi-weekly...I really like the gym, and the staff is amazing...The crowd is really nice, it's mostly young professionals, but I also see an older crowd there once in a while...It's 3 floors, 1 for women only, 2nd one is with machines and cardio equipment, and the 3rd floor has a huge weight room with spinning bikes and an aerobics classroom. Classes are included with the memebership! Also, they have small saunas and tanning beds in change rooms.

Overall, I would say that it's my favourite gym downtown, I did a very good research before switching from my old one, which was women's only.

Oh, and I love raping those eliptical machines to some Armin and Jelo!!! I would say running is best to trance, and using eliptical to tribal, techno, and electro.

I work out at home: bench press, pushups, crunches, and chinups.

Same set every time I work out: Marlboro64's 'Spunned Out' mix.

Yeah me too. I just installed a chin up bar, and bought some dumb bells.

I cannot stand the gym, the lights, the people, the equipment, the 'vibe'. I prefer my garage.

Any Sander Van Doorn Tracks/Mixes get me pumped at the gym
