Fitness Centers

[WeLoveThePoly]

Hi All -

We'll be at the Poly soon (yeah!). DH has been good about sticking to his worout routine and wants to continue working out while we are on vacation (silly man).

I know the Poly doesn't have a Fitness Center. Does the Grand Floridian or Contemporary have one? If so, would he be able to use it? I vaguely remember reading something about a length-of-stay pass regarding Fitness Centers but I don't remember the details.

TIA!

Debbie

The Poly shares the GF's fitness Center, it's about a 5 minute walk from the Poly. As of June 1st, the fitness center at your resort (for you it would be the GF's fitness center) is free of charge for the length of your stay.

Yes, I am very excited that he fitness center is FREE! We had to pay last time and I thought that was ridiculous!

Debbie-I understand how your DH feels! For me, well, I eat healthy and exercise daily. When I am on vacation I EAT LIKE A PIG but feel better if I keep up with my workouts!

Thanks for the info! DH will be glad to hear it!

wildernesslodgelover - DH was at a conference in Chicago Sun-Tue and was so glad the Marriott he stayed at had a fitness center. I'm so proud of him ..... keeping up with the healthy eating and working out. Now if only I could stay so motivated ......

Doesn't WL have a great fitness center too? I actually got an email back from Tour Guide Mike (I asked him if he was planning a Disney vacation for Arnold Schwartzenegger which fitness center would he recommend) and as I remember he said WL Sturdy Branches (which was convenient because that's where we're staying!

You know, I have not seen any other firness centers...only the WL. It seemed pretty nice to me, but I do not have a lot to compare it to. Basically, when I am on vacation for only a few days I just like to do cardio. If I am there longer than a few days, I would want to do weight training, too. But we usually go for 2-4 nights so I try to do 45 minutes of cardio at LEAST every other day. Makes me feel a little less gulity about all the food and booze I indulge in!

I know! I can't believe we leave on Friday!!!

I plan on taking lots of notes so I can write a trip report.

Fitness activities ... uh, um ... ok, um ..... walking around World Showcase ..... at a really quick pace ..... does that count?
