Hi,

After about 4 long years of being a member at Fitness Farce, I'm thinking of joining Muscleworks 2 on Tyson Road.

Just wondering if anyone goes there or had any experience (good or bad).

Ive just looked at their website & facebook.

They just have hundreds of pictures of scantily clad blokes jutting their scrotums at you. Seems like a place that will be heaving with juiced up bodybuilders. It looks crowded and doesnt seem to have natural light either.

Prices are expensive too. They might not seem it compared to fitness farce. But "iron" gyms should be able to give you a better deal as they can skimp on lighting/air con/expensive cardio machines/staff/insurance.

1 month £45
3 months£110
6months£190
12months£310
Something similar but better is Genesis, but is in wembley. Some of the countries best powerlifters and strongmen train there. So they have lots of hard to find specialist equipment like, chains, monolift, olympic lifting setups, strongman stones/logs, kettlebells, boxing stuff and more.

There is also a powerlifting club in Camberwell. More of a non-profit, community type enterprise.

And there is also Bethnal Green weightlifting club, based in a adult education college I think.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
