Talwalkars is a part of the large chain of health centers set up under the aegis of Talwalkars Better Value Private Limited. The center offers programs for body sculpting, weight management and massages for stress relief and toning. It’s a unisex gym and offers a stretch and flexibility program for 5-10 year olds as well. It is open from 5 AM to 10 PM.
What you see – Nestled in a high profile locale, bang on the main road where quite a good number of corporates are housed, Talwalkars gym is spread across 5,800 square feet. It is carpeted and air-conditioned and was buzzing with activity when we visited it for a review. Peppy numbers were playing loud in the background and every single treadmill was occupied. These treadmills are a part of the range of equipment that they have from international brand Life Fitness. Cross trainers, cycles, rowing machines, weights and so on are the other equipment that you see here.
What you get – Talwalkars is a unisex gym that offers personalized and general weight management programs for weight loss/gain and management of body weight. Besides, it has a special stretch and flexibility program for children in the age group of 5-10 years. We are told that this program has been developed keeping in mind the fact that kids are increasingly becoming couch potatoes.
Trainers here are segregated into normal, premium and super premium category. No prizes for guessing that prices are the highest for the super premium ones. The trainers (around 15) here don’t offer any guarantee of a fixed weight loss/gain. However, they say that on an average, three to five kilograms per month could be lost here. A month’s personal training would cost you Rs. 5,000. At Talwalkars you could also go for olive oil massage for stress relief and toning. A 30-minute one would cost Rs. 330.
A year’s membership with complete health club facilities including gym, cardio and steam would cost Rs. 35,000 for a couple and Rs. 24,000 for an individual. Since Talwalkars is spread across multiple locations, you could become a member at one and use the facilities of another as well. Apparently, even guests of members are allowed to use the gym for a day or two for free.
Our verdict – Talwalkars has a good number of certified trainers, and equipments here are of international standards too. The costs are a bit on the higher side. The gym, especially the cardio section is packed from 5 AM to10 AM and 6 PM to 9 PM. So avoid visiting it during those hours. Valet parking facility is available.
Anytime between – 5 AM – 10 PM (Weekdays)
8 AM – 2 PM (Sundays)
