Betta Bodies: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Been to this Gym on and off for 25yrs + best gym around and i won't go anywhere else... the gym has sole
Thanks Dave!
Fantastic experience: One of the last bastions of the old school. If you're after a gym where the plates are made of iron, there's sweat, grunting and a lot of hard work, this is the gym for you. If you want to take your training to the next level and reach your full potential in bodybuilding, strength and fitness, this is the gym for you. We've seen the videos of Ronnie Coleman in the Metroflex gym and Dorian Yates in the Temple gym. This is Manchester's answer to those iconic gyms. If you crave for the old school and want to train where some of the best have, Betta Bodies is the place to be.
Fantastic experience: This is an amazing gym - great atmosphere The machines are original but have stood the test of time and created champions! The gym has been visited by all the top bodybuilders and has created many of its own - if you are looking for a hard core gym where you are welcome and part of something special this is the place for you !!
