Pádel Indoor CD Salas

best gym in the world

I train at this gym when I'm in Spain visiting my father. The fitness area is absolutely complete. It's equipped like any large gym in a major European city, with new Panatta machines in perfect working order. Full-weight dumbbells. Absolutely nothing is missing. Anyone who says they don't know how to train at this gym should have gone bowling. I haven't tried the Spanish omelet from the counter yet, so I can't comment on that.

Two stars: Good equipment, although scarce, but the service is beyond appalling. One of the trainers (apparently the owner) behaves with a certain arrogance unbecoming of a professional. While I was using a machine, he rudely interrupted me to demand to know how many reps I had left. When I finished and offered to take turns, he denied me use of the machine with incredible arrogance. When I tried to speak to him, his only response was: "I'm not talking to you anymore, kid." I'd never been treated like this at a sports center. The rest of the staff and users were nice, but this individual makes the experience unpleasant and disrespectful. 👉 If you value respect and professional treatment, keep this in mind before signing up. The guy is a thug with no professionalism whatsoever for his clients. The worst I've seen in a long time.

In my opinion, the monthly fee of 50 euros, based on the information I've been given, and adding that it closes at noon, is surprising. At that price, you can find it in luxury gyms like those in Barcelona and Madrid that open at noon, but of course, this already seems like a rip-off to me. With such a small space and no pool, sauna, or anything like that, it's undoubtedly the most expensive in the area in terms of space and price, something that gives me a lot to think about. The owner only looks out for his own interests, which may be greedy or incomprehensible, like the padel tennis fee, or the weight room, which is completely unrelated. As far as I know, there are other gyms in Santander, for example, that have everything and can't even compare, hence their prices. He would make a lot of money if the owner reconsidered and, in my humble opinion, offered it for 35-36 euros per month, then it would be more reasonable, but I'll leave it at that.

A top gym with state-of-the-art equipment, long hours, a great atmosphere, and an unbeatable price. I've been to several gyms throughout Spain, and this one is the one that surprised me the most and made me fall in love with it.
