In Medellín, the gym culture is huge, and choosing a gym that fits your pace and budget makes a big difference when building your routine. I personally go to Bodytech and have for the last five years living in Colombia. It’s on the pricier side compared to other gyms here, but I think it’s 100% worth it compared to Smart Fit or Action Black. It offers a lot of perks, to say the least.
Smart Fit is a more affordable option. They’re everywhere, and one big perk they have is their guest pass system—you can invite friends whenever you want, which most gyms don’t allow. I don’t know too much about Action Black, but I will say Smart Fit is cheaper and more popular. The downside is that it gets extremely packed, which is something I don’t like about that gym. But hey, what can you do, right?
If anyone here likes to work out, I did four years in the Marine Corps and I really enjoy getting after it in the gym. So if anyone’s down for a workout, I’m always in.
