Gym Location

Hi again!

I decided my first post would be on the location of the gym. In my opinion, the majority of gym's are located in the outskirts of cities. I believe the main reason for this is simple...more space. Gym's need space and space is hard to find in the inner city. For example, David Lloyd Riverview in Clonskeagh. Riverview is not only a gym but a social club. Its facilities include: a restaurant, a smoothie bar, outdoor tennis courts, indoor tennis courts, a fully equipped gym, a swimming pool, steam room and many many more facilities. For a business like this to open they need a significant amount of space. This amount of space can simply not be found in the inner city.

The majority of gym's in the inner city are located in tall buildings and can often be very hard to find. For example, Raw Conditioning in Harcourt, is between a group of flats and a carpark. It is not the kind of place a person stumbles upon! The closer you get to the inner city the harder gym's become to find and the taller they get. Of course this is not in every case but in the majority of cases it is true! Riverview is on a main road and takes up a large amount of space while Raw Conditioning is the complete opposite..hard to find and takes up less space.

People may believe that the bigger the gym the better. In my opinion, that is false. If I was to choose between Raw Conditioning and Riverview I would choose Raw Conditiong..simply for it's high quality weight room which in my opinion you cannot find in Riverview.

I'll post again soon!
