Basic Fit

Before I go ahead and talk a bit about Basic Fit in general, I’ll mention what I like about this gym specifically. IT’S ²⁴⁄₇ !!! Just kidding :) that’s a lie. Actually, it’s ²⁴⁄₄ (but ²⁴⁄₇ sounds so much better). So how does that work? They’re open from Monday 8 AM through Friday 10:30 PM when they close for the first time in the week. Then they’re open in the weekend from 9 to 4. Fair enough, right?
This gym was recently renovated and fitted with lots of brand new black and orange Basic Fit equipment. They have rows of lots of cardio equipment and also plenty of heavy weight stuff for serious people. I was pleasantly surprised by this, although I’m still new to it all, I prefer working with loose weights. They have it all.
In the early mornings and late evenings (after 10 PM) it’s surprisingly busy! But everyone here, including, nay, especially, the big n’ mean looking fellows are super nice and helpful. This is definitely not a gym with an arrogant culture so if you’re shy, don’t be and set you’re worries aside if normal gym hours don’t fit your schedule. Just come on over and get fit.
If you’re a member of the Basic Fit gyms, you’re welcome at any of their gyms throughout the Netherlands! And we like that.
There’s only one membership, the all encompassing membership. They don’t have silly things like saunas and fruitbars and bla bla bla. You don’t go to the gym to make use of its café and have a smoothie while you read the paper at one of their tables! NO! You go there to get RIPPED. or fit. Basic Fit gyms are without bells and whistles!
You can pay the least by paying for the whole year upfront, or pay a tad more and do it monthly (automatic payments) with a one year contract, or pay even a bit more than that to pay monthly without a contract, at all. These are the only three options you have the rest is all-​in. They even allow you to lend your card to someone else! As long as you’re not working out together at the same time. One card per person at a time. You can, however, invite someone to workout at any Basic Fit for a day at no charge to either of you as an introduction.
