I use the one on the BCR near to Fitness first (don't join FF, shite), called ChangeURShape (if you know it then spacehoppaz kids fun house used to be next door). Anyway, very basic gym, nothing fancy. Has a weights room that some may argue is not enough. Biggest dumbell is 45kg(which I still struggle to bench with, I feel it has become my nemesis) has a Smiths machine instead of flat bench/Olympic bar etc.
Run by nice friendly folks and quite cheap.
It's also not a spit n sawdust kinda place either. I have also tried the cricket ground/sports union gym, but clocked some undesirable folk in there.
Behind Brunswick Park is the iron man gym, near to the Queens Head pub. I went in there once, felt like a scene from American werewolf where everyone stared at the stranger, so did one. My puny physique was no match for some of the monsters in there
