Hello Jameel137!

Welcome to Íæż½ã½ã-blog!

You should post an advert under Riyadh classifieds by selecting the Classes section and the Sports,Yoga, Tai Chi subsection.

It might be useful.

Hi me again (guy with visa issues). I used to be a pretty strong gym goer until a couple of years ago and I really need to get back in shape. Im hoping that coming to riyadh might help me turnover a new leaf.

So I want to know whats the best gym to use in riyadh? I dont want anything state of the art, just something usable, air-conditioned and expat-friendly.

Hi jameel there is a health & Wellness section on Íæż½ã½ã Classified-Riyadh on Facebook it has information and feedback on gym facilities also there is the Riyadh Runners you can google them if you really want to get fit! Good luck!

i'd recommend BodyMaster...

For a proper workout surround by people that are serious about working out i would head to golds gym on tahlia....althought not completely open it is a very good gym...they are still building the main part but a section is open for use and the machines are quality....

I go to Body Masters - not because I think it is the best gym in Riyadh, but the location is convenient for me. 3 months membership costs SAR 1600 but you get 1 month extra. I am not sure if this is the best deal, but it seemed to be the only option when I joined (even if there are different prices on their website). The gym is good equipped not very crowded in the evenings some of the staff speaks English - they are really helpful. And I haven't noticed any other European or American expats so far :-)

no, morouj branch. ohhh, I knew I'd pay too much. It sucks, but I arrived in the very beginning of Ramadan and was desperate to occupy myself with something :-)

Thats quite expensive...in the UK i was paying about £25 a month which i think works out to about 150SAR. Thats more my kinda price range
