Riverside gym vs downtown rec center, I switched and my joints changed
After 5 years at a commercial gym downtown I got fed up with the wait for squat racks every evening. My buddy kept pushing the public rec center by the river valley so I finally tried it last month out of frustration. Turns out the old equipment there is actually better for me, less crowded at 6pm and the floors have that real rubber matting instead of the thin stuff the other place put in. I pay like $35 a month now instead of $60 and I can actually do my full routine without someone hovering for my spot. The only downside is the hours are way tighter on weekends, they close at 6pm which kills my Sunday sessions. Has anyone else made the jump from a private gym to a city rec center and found the equipment quality totally fine or even better? I'm curious if I'm just getting lucky with this one location or if it's a common thing across Edmonton.
