I recently joined Talwalkars gym in Koregaon Park Pune. I found the three month package moderately reasonable. But obviously that's not what they want out of you. On the first day, they were all over me, assigning me a trainer to help me get started. Now I am familiar with the atmosphere of a gym, having worked out in a relatively cheap one in my hometown. But the "trainer" who I was assigned to made me do a series of random exercises with no time to even breathe. My blood pressure plummeted and I felt severely nauseous. To add insult to injury he said my fitness levels are poor and I need personal training which is a whopping 15000 bucks for three months.
I obviously refused, then I was assigned another trainer who wanted me to stick to their plan, which was a pathetic combination of random weights and cardio not dedicated to any specific part of the body. After a week, I said, I'll go by my own plan instead (taken from bodybuilding.com a very impressive site that gives fitness plans), which required a lot of convincing.
From that day on I've been ignored by every trainer. And no one comes to even assist me.
I hate this gym, and I have never met more snobbish money minded people.
