360 Fitness Gym _ Taman Tunku, Miri – GYM REVIEW

Lot 6795, 1st Floor, Jalan Kuching, Taman Tunku, 98000 Miri, Sarawak.

H/P : +60 111 588 8820

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.

quite a number of dumbbells for use.

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.

heaviest dumbbell is at 25 lbs. not too heavy but its quite a bit for fitness. would be nice if they have some heavier ones

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.

now not a lot of gym has the full size cablecross machine and this has got to be a thumbs up

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.

seated preacher curl is a standard issue in Miri

So seated right beside the cable cross machine is the seated preacher curl station. Standard issue with the E-Z Bar.

There are lots of Machines in this gym. standards ones like the chest press and pec deck

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.

Smith Machine looks good but a bit shaky. nothing a good adjustment of angles cant fix

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.

its pretty spacious in the gym. good for breathing space

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.

A lot of gym’s in Miri are selling supplements. The tubs are not available yet but u can get per scoop

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)

Good to know the leg machines in good condition and well

I was hoping that they had Leg-Press Machine but the only one available is the convertable Seated Leg Curl/Extension set.

its pretty standard for this Back extension/machine crunch in Miri

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.

Lots of Free weigh bench stations. From Incline to Decline

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.

Im sure a lot of Mirian would love these good solid sets of Cardio Bikes.

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.

And ample Cardio Machines for a good crowd size

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.

Quite a rare sight in Miri for this kind of Lat pull down but its a good to have with the availability of the isolation choice

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.

Good sturdy Machines for heavy use

for those who knows me.. this is a must post. the fusion of the Pec-Dec / rear delt machine .. the angle and weights is perfect

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.

3/5 Stars

Innocent till Proven

The stack im on in preparation for my photoshoot

Let’s talk bout reality. Science-Medical-knowledge and taboo. In reality once you hit ur 30’s people start telling you that your hormone’s dropping and for guy, its mostly the worst nightmare. Testosterone level in danger. Getting too low and 1st thing that fear us is our performance both in bed with our women and in gym with our muscles. But im not here to talk bout the bedroom talk. More to unveil a myth which has been haunting us gym enthusiast, Fitness believers and those who are freaked out by taboos.

As you can see at the bottom middle of the picture above I’ve included Tribulus Terrestris in my stack. Since I’m at my early 30’s why not. I’ve never really got myself down to try any testosterone booster all these while. Even when USP Labs 1st launched their “Pink Magic” with awesome reviews, I went to get a bottle of it a few months before my local bodybuilding competition. It sat in my cabinet for many weeks before I release it off to a friend. I couldn’t bear to bring myself to consume it because my hormone was off the charts. Even without the boosters I could feel pity for (If I had one then) female partner with my raging sexual needs. But I’ve not been practicing self control for nothing since I started bodybuilding.lol.

Shredded Abs with good dieting

So only up till last month that I ordered a bottle of bodybuilding.com Tribulus Terrestris from of course, http://www.bodybuilding.com which is very reasonable priced. I had to give a little to what the world believe. i guess it’s what they call reality. worldly reality that is. So here’s my review of testosterone and supplement boosters.

i just love seeing more and more veins.. obsession

I’d say Tribulus Terrestris works as it claims. I can feel the rush in hormone. (feel) Just so you know I didn’t conduct any medical or scientific analysis and not making up on any medical claims. It’s a claim upon my experience trying out the supplement. And so, I feel much aggression and a gush in temper. I’ve always been very good at maintaining a cool head but after a week of using Tribulus Terrestris I notice that even minor things (usually dumb actions by others) triggered me easily. Even when the person in the gym didn’t place the weights back to the rack triggers me. I mean, usually I would just workout and along the way return it to the original place for them. Now I find myself uttering mockery. Which I don’t like at all.

Secondly I find that my sexual needs have been boosted many folds. It has caused me to have this desperation needs. Feeling Sexually Deprived when I’m not having any in a day. Which is bad because I’m single and I’ve not been having sex for a long time. All I can say is I’ve to settle it… in my way.. don’t ask.

Thirdly I notice physically there is some benefits to the muscle mass. In a way I’ve no idea how to explain but I’m getting more shredded dry. Gaining a little muscle mass. But of course, this has a lot to do with my clean diet and strict-Active-dedicated workout regiment.

Checking out my calves after a leg day

So that’s is about the supplements. Now my opinion on my Lifestyle in conjunction with diet, workout and supplementation (Testosterone boosters)

Well, before I consume my 1st Tribulus Terrestris capsule I don’t feel any lack in my hormone in a sense there is no decrease in libido. Maybe it was due to my active lifestyle and most definitely the “Squats” and tons of lower body exercise in the gym. Not to forget a clean diet year through with lots of high fiber, protein and good carbs and most definitely good fats (omega) Fats is an essential and important substance to maintain a good testosterone level. The only difference is if you have the right fats to boost it. Having low visceral fat % will not only help in maintaining a good health physically but hormonal too. And it helps in courtship (mentally) 😛

can’t say much bout good sleep cause i’ve very sound sleep but very short ones too. Anyways, probably because my hormones are still high that I’ve added a booster in my stack that is causing me to be more aggressive.

I would say the old saying that ones you hit 30’s your hormone’s going downhill is not true. Well, not entirely true in a way on how you lead your life. If you have a healthy and active lifestyle you don’t have to worry bout it. If the other (Darker Path) then I can’t comment much but probably this supplement will work for you. And for those who are clinically or genetically affected too.

On my note of supplementation view Tribulus Terrestris works like it should.

I believe if I carry on eating healthy and lead an active lifestyle I don’t have to worry about this agenda for a long time. Myth Busted.

Loving my T4i .. getting the depth of field to emphasis the subject was easy
