So finally I had the opportunity to visit this 360 Fitness Gym at Taman Tunku. It’s located beside 7 day food court if you are familiar with Taman Tunku location. If not, you can’t miss it. If you are turning in from the main road. Head straight down the road till you see the traffic lights beside Survey Supermarket. Turn Right and head on straight till you see a row of shops. You can’t miss it.
So its a very straight forward gym. From the entrance, to the far left u have the cardio machines. nearing the entrance you have all the machines and free weights bench. and to the right you have the dumbbells and the cablecross Machine. It’s very spacious and clean. The washroom too and with a water dispenser at your disposal. Windows on all 3 corners of the room with ample fans. I spotted 1 air-con which is off. No point since all the windows are open. The crowds are not too bad. A healthy dose.
So if you are a dumbbell person, don’t worry they have a full set of dumbbells. ranging from light to the max weight at 25lbs. well, a little light compared to most gyms but I guess if you are not those Hardcore Beast, its not too much of an issue for fitness enthusiast. The dumbbells are still in very clean and tight conditions.
Then on the other side of the wall nested a cable cross machine. The full size with adjustable pulley. Its a good solid set. Smooth. the only issue is there aren’t much choice on the bars and there was no rope. A bit too close to the mirror though so if you are trying to work on your cable cross for pecs, you might not want to be facing the mirror. Lockers not too many but its huge if you have a 80liter rucksack.. it fits.
So seated right beside the cable cross machine is the seated preacher curl station. Standard issue with the E-Z Bar.
So I notice a huge amount of machines placed neatly and uniformly across the room. Starting with the chest press, seated leg extension/curl, back extension/machine crunch… and so forth. Well, the pec-dec/rear delt machine is placed further down. not too sure why but the Smith-Machine is right behind the chest press. I guess its the placement of the chest machines in an L-Shape. the machines look sturdy and solid and still in very good conditions.
This is a very solid smith-machine. Though I tried it a little, its tilting to one side. probably the footing need to be adjusted and angled properly. But overall, its a very nice piece without the “Counter Weight” like some of the gyms here. Smooth and oiled and ready to be stacked with heavy plates.
As you can see, space is the value of the gym. Lots of rooms to move about and you won’t find it being uncomfortable with your workout space.
So you find the counter with the stash of Supplements. Though its not for sale, maybe in the future, they do sell per scoop at RM10 for proteins (Nitro-Tech)
I was hoping that they had Leg-Press Machine but the only one available is the convertable Seated Leg Curl/Extension set.
I don’t use this machine much but it helps to ease the stress of the manual back extension raise plus its safer. Of course, provided you don’t press it all the way back and just try to step off. and with the very common combo of machine crunch its like the favourite among most.
For those free weights enthusiast, here is something to look forward to. It’s good to know they have the standard width Bench stations which allows good head room and wide enough grip as well as sturdy support. From The Incline Bench on the far side of the room, to the Decline Bench in the middle up till the flat. You will be expecting a full range of bench with lots of weights at your disposal.
2 spinning bikes. I would say, this is only under supervision that one should try as its not the traditional stationary bike. Unless of course, if you are familiar with the Spinning classes or RPM. And the good old traditional Back Extension station right next to it.
Here you find ample supply of cardio machines with 4 treadmills and 2 elliptical trainer. Good amount for a gym this size. Plus the grade of these machines are for industrial use. Though its not facing a good view, but the windows in front provides a good breeze.
I guess 1 machine that caught my eye is this 2 pulley lat pull down machine. with the availability to switch from normal set to isolated sets on the top pulley. I love isolated workouts. And with this machines, you can actually pull off a great lat workout as the angle is not fixed to a straight downwards pull.
Came along with this machine is the paring seated row function. I won’t say i like it very much as the angle of the foot placement is not too kind. and the length of the seat is a little short when it comes to getting a good stretch at the top. But it’s a good enough set to get a great lats workout.
And definitely a thumbs up choice on this set cause not a lot of gyms in Miri has this. 2 way system for great chest and rear delt workout. I didn’t try it on the pec dec but its definitely a good machine for Rear Delt. Good amount of weights for those stronger ones.
Summary
I would say its a pretty neat gym (very neat visually and clean) with clean carpets and its brightly lit. The machines are ample and the free weights too. with a good amount of plates and cardio machine. Machines are smooth and solid as well as very new. Toilets and changing rooms clean. though its a little small and can only house a moderate amount of people in the gym at one time but when the crowd is light, one can really get a great workout here. rated for fitness enthusiast.
