Looking for a gym when away from home?

[johnbeau]

I have a site which offers users a chance to find a suitable gym when travelling away from home Gym Visit and would love to hear of any other gyms that I should have on this listing either in this thread or by entering details on the site submit a gym

cheers, john

this is actually a good idea, i've been toying with something like this since i travel and always work out on the road

i have a few gyms i'll add to your list within a few days

it's going to take a lot of work and input from users like me to make your site a success...for now it's easier to look up gyms at yahoo yellow pages

good luck!

Yep it's taking a lot of work but I'm planning that at least on my site you'll get as much details as I can find out - as opposed to just an address and a phone number. See this listing for an example http://www.gymvisit.com/gyms/europe/united_kingdom/london/westend/jubileehall

So any details would be very handy...I'm covering over 70 countries at the moment and also every state in America!

Thanks for any help, J

I like this idea John. I travel a lot on business but you can guess that from the username. In the US, I just google my hotel and use the maps/ find business function to find gyms nearby. This always works in the US but not international. Mostly I end up with chain gyms.

Good luck.

Thanks roadwarrior...if you know of any good gyms it'd be great to get the details so I can add them to the site. I'm really interested in getting hold of independent gyms because they're often harder to find (because they don't have huge marketing budgets) and often more suited to people on a one off visit looking to lift big weights...oh OK they just seem more deserving! Cheers, j

I know a few good ones in NY/NJ, LA, and San Jose CA areas. I will dig up info and send what I can find to you.

A bit of an update....Now have over 4,000 gyms in every state of the USAa and a gym in almost every postcode in London

Here's the challenge i think I've got just about every independent gym or small chain in these areas...but of you know any gyms I'm missing please let me know.

Cheers, John
