zookeeper Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Well it seems that the council is starting to think about doing something about the appaling lack of sports complex in Bristol on Hengrove Park and built a sport centre complex, with 3 swimming and a 100 station gym (can't imagine JJB will be too happy with it though).Anyone know anymore inside details about this?Edit: just to add the link to the evil post storyEvil Post (probably) getting my hopes up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhombrecito Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I probably have the details lying around here somewhere as I live on the edge of Hengrove Park and the council sent us the details, but I'm really to lazy to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomBCFCUK Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Yeh i have been there it is superb! The swimming pool is a luxery it also has 2 jucuzzi which are so relaxing just after you run 6 miles. They have every machine you can think of there it is very clean. Worth visiting its £10 a day there but you will be there for atleast 4 hours and that is no lie! If you can make it regulary it is £35 a month which i think is very cheap as you can go in whenever you want! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Whichurch sports center USED to be ok! ←After playing football over there tonight for an hour, I can honestly say I hate that place. No sort of air conditioning at all, and if you get too many players (13-14 tonight) you have no space at all.Much prefer the Beeches in Briz.To be honest, that place has it's day. A new sports centre/complex is needed around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is better to go three or four times a week and concentrate on certain muscles which don't relate ie Mon = back & bicep, Weds = chest & tricep, Fri = Shoulders, abs & legs.. etcThis gives each muscle grouping time to rebuild after being broken down.
