Isnt others safra gym also have abt the same number of shower cubicles? I think if during the peak period, even u have 20 shower cubicles also not enough.

Yes, you are right, in fact, there are lesser shower cubicles for the one in Tampines. What I meant was, since it is going to be a "brand new" one, shouldn't they have considered the fact that 10 is not enough? If my memory serves me well, I think the old TPY E1 had slightly more than 10? Some more, I think we don't really need that big a space anyway, kind of wasted... Oh well, haha...

Too bad lah, i always find when they designed something here, they always didnt think and i also dun know why?! Like in tis case, i also wonder who designed the safra tpy gym? Design until so big and yet they didnt fully utilize the space they have? Also the overly open concept of the steam rm and jacuzzi area until i find a bit not practical and no privacy at all.

Yes, the shower cubicles are indeed bigger (maybe a little too big), but if they had reduced the size a little (including the toilets' size), there could easily be another row of shower cubicles - as the current 10 shower cubicles are barely enough. Just my 2 cents worth... ;)

do u often gym at tpy safra?

Yeah, whoever did the designing is definitely questionable, like you said it - waste of space, too open for a private facility (jacuzzi/steam room).

No choice lor... *sigh*

Hmm, should be quite often 吧. I would try to go at least 2-3 times per week, unless it is a busy week then could only make it there once a week...

Do you also gym there as well?

For the steam rm/jacuzzi area, maybe they can still improve the design there. Perhaps cld install some shade or higher glass panel on the wall parapet?! And bring in more gym equipment to fill up those empty space?!

The steam rm is quite big in tpy, and the rm always overly filled with the steam and cld hardly see the pple inside. Haha.

Jurong gym design indeed not bad, they didnt waste too much space and yet the space in the gym does not consider too small and crowded. The shower rm also not bad, not too big or too small, size just nice and the steam rm design also quite gd.

Yes, agree totally, but maybe install those opaque glass panel rather than clear glass panel, haha...

However, gym users should also be considerate when using the things in gym, including in the shower. For instance, previously I found the shower tap dropped off in one of the cubicles; and just yesterday, one of the metal hanger hook went missing in another cubicle. I can understand the "wear & tear" after years of usage, but this gym is not even half-year old, not unless this gym produces many "supermen" that one touch and things would be spoilt/fall off, haha... :P

You visit safra everywhere wor, where is your common one?

Haha.

I just got my Safra card not long ago so was a little excited about it.

Went around all the Safra pools to explore mah.

Weekdays I usually go Mt Faber or Jurong. Weekends either TPY or Yishun.

Tampines haven explore. Haha.

I think I like TPY one most, followed by Yishun.

Mt Faber is always so packed after work.

Could you share why did you prefer TPY most, like what is so special about it?

I'm not quite confident to swim there as I'm not a good swimmer, some more the "gymmers" could overlook the pool at level 2 - so many pairs of eyes staring, so "scary", haha...

Cos it has a proper lap pool.

Sufficient lanes to swim.

Interesting fish tank concept.

Not forgetting the occasional eye candies.

Too bad I am shortsighted so can't bio very clearly. LOL.

I dun mind the gymmers stare at me. Because I can't really see them anyway.

Plus I love the toilet. It has 2 kind of shower... the rain shower and normal shower head.

The cubicles are huge.

There's astons, mac and toastbox available after the swim too.

Most importantly, it's near my place. =)

I should be signing up the gym later this year when my current membership is up.

Hoping to find more swim kakis.

Based on my latest observation, TPY E1 gym has added some new equipment at level 1, pretty spaced out and filled most of the space (previously empty). But there is no addition at level 2, hopefully they would do likewise for level 2 (in phases?).

I finally got to use its jacuzzi "peacefully", previously I saw the water was slightly greenish (looked dirty), so I didn't use it even though it was empty. This time round the jacuzzi was empty and the water was crystal clear - clean, and smelled clean (like in swimming pool). The only thing was the afternoon sun was shining into the other half of the jacuzzi (near the expressway). Most importantly, the temperature of the jacuzzi was just right, not extremely hot. :thumb:
