Our recommendations for the 5 Best Gyms in Gillingham
Christmas is very soon upon us! Ho Ho Ho 🧑🎄
We all know what that means… Christmas dinners and puddings, chocolates and sweets, pies and nibbles! If there’s ever a time to allow ourselves to indulge (or over-indulge), that time is Christmas and New Year! 🙌
But (and there is always a “but”), Christmastime passes yet the “chrinch” (or Christmas Inch: an extra inch on the waistline due to festive period indulgence) remains with us and is hard to shift. However, there’s no harm in putting a little thought into a possible new good habit for 2023 as an early New Year’s resolution. So, we thought we would put together a list of what we think are the 5 best gyms in Gillingham. 💪
Whether you live in Gillingham, or are one of our wonderful guests, these are the 5 best gyms in or near to our local town.
Our 5 best gyms in Gillingham are, in no particular order:
