Peanut Farm Reserve Outdoor Gym - St Kilda (VIC)

Vini B For $70m I expected more. It should be a 24/7 gym but for some reason it isn’t (it should be coming but no one knows when). There’s a small gym with limited equipment which makes access difficult when busy (to make it worse they run classes in the gym that take over some equipment further limiting access). The new treadmills are buggy (go into error mode or offline before or during use). The treadmills are situated in front of floor to ceiling windows with no blinds so that you are blinded by the afternoon sun. If you need to talk to a staff member they are seldom available. Forget spin classes ther’s no cycling studio. There’s no sauna or spas. Speakers in the centre repeat a no cellular signal message all day which is quite annoying. The few cycles in the gym have some recorded classes but the videos resolution is so poor you can’t see anything. To top it off the membership is more expensive then the nearby Ascot Vale Leisure Centre that, though older, is far better equipped, has spin studio, has saunas and spa, a larger cafe and keeps open for longer and the staff are always on hand when needed. The Kensington Recreation Centre needs to significantly improve or cut its prices to reflect its more limited service.

Benjamin LB Excellent service, excellent treatment. Everyone that works there is super friendly. I’ve had 2 physios there, most recently Brad, and he’s been really working with my needs to recover from injury

Robin Marchment I love my local Zap. It has all the necessary equipment and nice staff - but, more importantly (as someone who swore they would never go to a gym), I have found the atmosphere welcoming and peaceful. Although I like going there to enjoy "my own space", as a smaller gym, the other members are friendly and approachable. Its also reasonably priced and super convenient to go whenever I choose.

Ken Lam We go there for the BJJ classes ... Always clean easy parking and friendly staff

Sarah Florence Iron Tribe is an absolutely joyful place to train and community to be a part of. Chris is both knowledgeable and hilarious, making training both smart and enjoyable, regardless of what you’re doing. It’s a warm and friendly environment where everyone is supportive of each other and no one gets left out, regardless of whether your training for a competition, rehabbing an injury, or are brand new to training.
