? about OKW gym/activites

[dznyacct]

My son and I will be enjoying our first stay at OKW in 20 days (not like I'm anxious or anything!). I have been working out very faithfully for the last year and a half (I even worked out on our 7 night DCL cruise last summer -- what a view that was!!) and want to use the exercise facilities at OKW while we're there. Does anyone know the current hours of the gym? Also does anyone know where I could get a list of current activites/events that happen at OKW (kind of like the "newspaper" they give you at check-in)? Thanks for any info you can provide!

Well-can't help with the hours etc but don't look for anything like Golds Gym!!
It can barely be called an exercise "room"-very limited equipment. You can probably get a decent "workout" but if you are serious weight trainers (powerlifter, bodybuilder, etc) you will be disappointed. No barbells that I can recall, and limited # of preweighted dumbbells
I'm told nearby Saratoga Springs has much better facilities, tho I've only been there when it was the Disney Institute--

I peaked in there last December, and it looked like there was all new equipment. I think there might have been a bowflex as well as treadmill. I didn't check it out that closely though!

That would be nice--new equipment, I mean. They are unfortunately limited by being located a very small area.

Yes, it IS very small. In fact, I was a bit surprised by just HOW small!
