Re: educo gym

Would it not depend on the terms & conditions of any contract signed?

what kind of results would you be expecting to see after 12 days? Fat loss, weight loss, muscle gain, cardio improvement?
Short term programs (2-3 weeks) are usually drastic to see any meaningful results but it depends on what the goal is.

It's a Tony Quinn venture by the way... not something that would elicit a positive response from me. Why not go walking, running or make an odd trip to a public swimming pool. Don't give that guy any more money ;-).
 
Re: educo gym

They charge a small fortune....I think someone mentioned something like €500 for a 12 day program?? Anyone know the exact figures. I wouldn't touch with a barge pole! Out with the runners and head in one direction for half an hour & turn around and go home!!
 
Please stick to the original poster's query about terms & conditions/rights in the context outlined. Posts about diets/supplements etc. fall foul of the posting guideline above and have been/will be deleted.
 
Yep, I'd check the T&C's. For instance:

What are the "results"?
How are the measured?
Can they be independantly verified?
What responsibilities do you have - is it just "do these things in the gym on this schedule" or "do these things in the gym on this schedule, sew your mouth shut, and run 20 miles a day".

Chances are, they will have deeper legal budget than you to win the case on a technicality.
 
as the give up smoking adds say... it talso takes will power to give up smoking.... same could be said for the gym !
 
Our office manager is doing a 12 day (€360) course. It is hard going on him, green salads for lunch when he used to have 2 sandwiches, a cake and a choc bar...

And he used to have €360 in his pocket/bank account.
 
fair play to him, sure money is money if that is what he is after who cares about the money
 
Yes but who really needs to pay somebody €360 for dietary advice when the basics of balanced/healthy eating are very simple (although not necessarily easy to apply systematically) and easily accessible to anybody with access to books, the internet etc.?

The green salads should be cheaper than the sandwiches, cake and choc bar so he should get his money back soon.
