Southend Leisure & Tennis Centre

Truly felt like a prison more then a gym, the free weight section is tiny (no bigger then the average size bedroom to be honest) and none of the equipment flows properly, it has a certain stickiness too it. The prices are extortionate for what they offer and the gym is spread over different floors so is impractical for use anyone and outright dangerous to be skipping up and down stairs mid workout. Then we move onto the swimming facilities. WHAT A JOKE, the pools tiny in terms of length and is more guarded then the Crown Jewels! Its like a prison, you can only go in on the stroke of quarter to hour, the adolescent life guards think theyre the guardians of the galaxy walking round the pool like bouncers even if people are in there less then a minute early! They shouted at older members for being about 30 seconds too early.. they then lined us all up as if we was in school and made us stand behind some red tape as if we was queuing up to meet his majesty himself only to be let into a TINY pool thats ridiculously overcrowded and you cant enjoy because its overfilled. The reason its overfilled is because of their pathetic running of the facilities. This is alongside poor hygiene in the changing areas , no clothes drying facilities, and the sauna and steam being the other side of the building to the pool facilities which to be is just as idiotic as the running of this mental asylum.
