Posh n’ Becks
check Archway leisure centre
Wanna lose weight and get fit? then get down to the new,
improved Premier Gym at Archway leisure centre. Three
months free membership is available to anyone joining before
the end of February.
Set over two floors, the stunning, new gym has all the latest equipment
from Lifefitness. The view over the leisure pools and spa is spectacular.
Member Nina Graneroed said: “I’ve been a gym member at Archway for
about a year and am very impressed with the new look. It’s modern and
even futuristic compared to the previous gym. There’s now an open,
light space with better equipment on both floors and good views of the
pool.
It’s so cool Posh'n'Becks just had to visit. The England captain and his
pop star wife (lookalike couple Paul Mansley and Gail Penny) made
great use of the new facilities and entertained customers in their own
inimitable style at the gym’s launched.
Exercise! There’s

Premier Gym manager, Liz Penny said: “This substantial investment
means the new Premier Gym offers everything a private club does at an
accessible price for everyone. As well as superior, modern gym
facilities, new members also receive four one-to-one sessions with an
instructor as part of our Premier One programme.”
The investment of £500k into Archway’s Premier Gym was a result of
the new, 15 year leisure contract between Islington Council and
Aquaterra Leisure.
