Ubud Gym

If you are not a insta-hyper-shaved modern fit-fluencer this place will be sufficient for your training. Yes, it could be cleaner. Yes, there could be more dumbbells. But hey, it works anyway and this place has its own spirit.

Great price, just 25,000RP for a day pass and 125,000RP for a monthly pass. The equipment is quite old and scarce, as well as a little unsafe, especially the row machines. The gym has a cool character with mirrors on nearly every wall, not to mention some great regulars.

Honestly the gym could use some cleaning, the equipment some wiping down and the whole place a renovation and upgrade.. BUT, it has everything you need to workout (more weight training, no cardio) and offers unbeatable price per visit. We paid 25,000 pp for a day visit. My husband and I liked the experience of working out without all the fancy equipment. We went 3 times out of the 6 days we were in Ubud.

It's old, it's rusty, it's dirty, but it's cheap. 25k for a pump and an ego boost to max out all the machines, well worth it.

No air con, no fans, no bolts to hold the pads onto the benches. It's very much like a rusty time capsule. The price is dirt cheap. No idea how they keep such a large space open given everything... (There's a huge dance hall type area off the open air gym space) Despite it all, I definitely worked up quite a sweat and somehow managed a semi-decent workout. Mostly thanks to the working leg press. For some strange reason, I think it was a great experience for personal growth. Almost like a dysfunctional rite of passage. Though I can't see myself finding a reason to return. Oh, and they guy running the place will happily turn the music off or down if you ask. It was nice hearing nature, along with the sounds of the 4 other people in there (I clearly hit it at peak hour).

I know people will argue that's not even close to 5, I know and you're right. But I gave the 5 for a couple of reasons. First I was searching for a gym with a reasonable price, that one is just 20k for a day pass, what's really good. Normally studios around here starting from 40k-80k. I was also looking not for a fancy gym, I do not need smth like that, I'm here just for a month and want to do basic workout max. 2-3 times a week, to stay healthy until I can get back in the water;) And I was looking for a gym, literally just around the corner, so I can walk there. It looks a bit old, but has a real charming classic iron gym look, as people would know from the old days of bodybuilding;) You will see when you come for a session ;) So if you want a cheap gym, where you can do all your basic exercise, sometimes it will be just you, then that's the right place to go. For everyone else, who's into fancy gyms and have more money to spend, then maybe not the right place for you;))

Good old school gym, you can easily do your heavy workout. 25k entrance. Quality is not the best but what can you expect from this price. Enough for me

I went for a workout 6 months ago still have nightmares about this place. The clothes I wore while working out here were unsalvageable. Three washes later and they still smelled rancid. As someone who works out 5-6 days a week I never thought I'd say this, but you might actually be healthier if you avoid working out at Ubud Gym. Most of the equipment was so rusty that it was falling apart, and it didn't seem like anything had been cleaned since the gym opened.
