683187 2008-06-28 03:32:00 I'm looking at joining a gym in the Wellington region, I know nothing about this kinda stuff, what I do know is:

* I'm more interested in losing a bit of weight (10kg or so) than getting buff
* 1yr contracts are undesirable

Any reccomendations as to which gym, or specific program?

Cheers :)

Les Mills and Bodyworks are the places to go to be seen......I went to CityFitness last year, but they're only in the Northern suburbs.

If you're central, maybe have a look at the place at Freyberg Pool.

As for specific programmes, you can ask 100 personal trainers and get a 100 different solutions. As long as your moving, your exercising. Pretty straight-forward really.

They do less than annual subscriptions but the price per week would obviously be more $$.

683192 2008-06-28 08:20:00 If you join Les Mills, look on Trade Me to see if anyone is selling their subscription. That way you can buy it off them and get a weekly rate from several years ago (of course, if they still have a year of the contract to run, you are now bound to fulfill the obligation and also have to pay a transfer fee). I wish I had done that when I joined. :) maccrazy (6741)
