Review this Gym
I tend to use the gym in the mornings and it is nice and quiet at this time. As mentioned before, the free weights area is far too cramped, but if you are there off peak there is usually no problem getting in there and doing your thing. I have been on a few occasions at lunch time and it was far busier and getting into the weights area was far more difficult.

Its has the same rates as the other DLR Leisure services places. This is relativly new and seemed quite clean. Not sure if they have a sauna or what the changing rooms are like, I prefer to shower at home. Cardio is fairly stocked. Bank of six or eight treadmills, 4 Concept2 rowers, one with a backed seat, (which I thought might be good for people with back trouble) A few steppers, 2 cross trainers and lot of funny crosstrainer like things with a stepper foot action (ie more up and down than elliptical) Dumbbells. Various machines, some quite odd. Two adjustable double cable machines with pullup bars. A bench with maybe 300kg of weight alltogether. An adjustable rack to go with the bench (if you want powerlifting don't come here) A few benches for dumbell training. I was struck by how cramped the weights area is. There were a few lads around doing curls with dreadful technique when I was in, and I found it hard to find space for my own workout. The vast amount of the (ample) space set aside for weights is taken up with the peculiar (and not so) machines. Hilariously, the two machines which seem to need the most space, (the cable fly type things) were stuffed in corners. By contrast, you could hold a dancing competition in the space between the cardio machines. I don't recall seeing bikes, and my attempt to tag on some cardio was limited by the infuriating controls of the Nazi party cardio-machines. (I have been told not to row for a while ) Evidentally Concept2 are the only company in existance who think you have the right to decide your own intervals. Good selection of balls an upwardly tilted L-seat stand and some mats on a parque floor at the back. Also some aerobics platforms which I could jump onto if I was that way inclined. It will suit some, but don't think I would go back.
