Default From Orlando, soon to be back in UK

Evenin all,
i am currently living in Orlando, Fl. i have been working here for about a year as a Personal Trainer/Fitness Supervisor at the University of Central Florida(check out www.rec.ucf.edu and the webcams for a look at the place).
I shall be flying back at the end of this month and am looking for a good gym to join in the West Midlands, ideally in the Wolverhampton area. If anyone knows of a good facility, incorporating plenty free weights and benches, then let me know. Much appreciated.
I have been training for about 5 years now, the last two pretty serious. I am now 17 stone 11, at 6'1. I am currently bulking, but will be looking to cut again when i return(but am definitely not looking forward to the UK supplement prices :twisted: )

All the best,

The Natural. 8)

Welcome to the board mate.

Sorry I can help you with the hunt for a good gym, but good luck!

I know what you mean about the UK supplement prices i've been on some american sites before and i was shocked by the difference in price, its tempting to order from over there and pay the stupid P&P prices, still works out cheaper!!

Yup, i don't really understand why there is such a large price discrepancy between the UK and US. Is it because the products are made here? Or maybe because there are more people here buying things so companies can charge less?

Anyway, cheers for the welcome. I hope i can find a good gym to keep up my progress as i have managed to make some real good gains over the last year.

Cheers, and anyone else from the West Midlands on here?

Hello to you in Sunny Orlando!

Bet you're REALLY looking forward to coming back to the Midlands! I live just outside Walsall, probably about 7 miles from Wolverhampton.

Your best bet for a gym is probably Healthland in Wednesfield. They've got a really good free weights section, huge gym, it gets a bit rammed though from Monday - Thursday.

Its really good value though, only about 200 for years membership.

Get ready for some sh*te weather mate!

Welcome to the board Natural, My sentiments exactly, prepare yourself for some rather indifferent climate changes, nothing like sunny Orlando though.

Right, seems to be between Atlas, LM and Healthlands(one at Bently Bridge, Gail?) got to find somewhere that will let me join for a month at a time, to begin with.

Actually, its a bit overcast today, but still warmer outside than in 8)

Cheers.
