| 236.1 | A nice room at the Inn | EXIT26::SNODGRASS | | Wed Jan 02 1991 15:44 | 11 |

Tracy,
When we stayed at the Disney Inn this summer of the rear pool next to
the snack bar they had free weights, two cycles, six Nautilus, and a
treadmill. Ican't remember if they had a climber or not. The Inn seemed
a little more athleticly inclined than the Poly, but that might be my
impression.

| 236.2 | exercise at disney | KSTREL::EFRANK | | Wed Aug 21 1991 13:18 | 12 |

Hi there,
Friends of ours are going with us to disney and want to know where they can
do exercise (other than walking) (i.e. lifecycle, aerobics...etc) We are all
staying at the Port Orleans but are not sure of the exercise facilities there.
Personally, I think the walking is enough but these folks are religious about
their fitness...
thanks,
eric

| 236.3 | | SALEM::PAGLIARULO_G | Reality is a cosmic hunch | Wed Aug 21 1991 13:36 | 3 |
| I believe that there's a full gym in the Contemporary.

| 236.4 | Yup, the Contemporary has a gym | ALLVAX::STAATS | 1-800 | Wed Aug 21 1991 14:58 | 8 |
| One of the reasons I'm staying in the contemporary (ok it's a real
small reason :-) is that it contains a full gym with Nautalis, Lifecycles
and other equipment.
I've heard there Carribean Beach has some exercise equiptment as well,
but I'm not positive.

| 236.5 | CBR Fitness | VISUAL::SCOPA | I'd rather be in Orlando | Wed Aug 21 1991 15:41 | 10 |
| Not much at the CBR that I know of. Yeah you can rent a bike but that's
it. As a runner who needs his miles every day I found myself running
around Barefoot Lagoon while down there last year. It's not a bad run
if you are an early bird....less crowds and less heat.
I think it's a 1/2 mile for one loop but don't quote me. Nothing more
invigorating that doing 5K in the morning and then jumping into the
pool.

| More Exercise Info...
I was looking throuh the "official" guide to Walt Disney World
and found the following (besides the 'Olympia Health Club' in the
Contemporary)...
Grand Floridaian - St. John's is the hotel's health club, offering
an exercise room wth state-of-the-art equipment, steamrooms, locker
facilities, and a massage room.
Yacht and Beach Club - The SHip Shape Health Club is located in the
central area between the two resorts, and features exercise machines,
aerobics classes, sauna, spa, steamroom and massage rooms.
Swan - A small health club, offering exercise equipment and aerobics
classes, is located near the pool.
Dolphin - A branch of Body by Jake (run by telivision fitness guru Jake
Steinefeld) is located near the pool. State-of-the-art equipment
is available, as are personal trainers. There are aerobics classes
(including water aerobics), a sauna, steamroom, and whirlpool.
Carribean Beach - the 1.4 mile promenade around the lake is perfect
for a morning jog.
Fort Wilderness - The Fort Wilderness Exercise Trail 2.3 mile jogging
course.

the snack stand.

| 236.8 | St. John's Healthclub at the GF | USMFG::RMATTIOLI | | Fri Aug 23 1991 15:51 | 8 |
| I used the St. John's Healthclub at the Grand Floridian during our
stay in April. The club has some free weights as well as Nautilus
and Lifecycles. I believe they also had Treadmills. It is not a
big club but has enough equipment to keep one in shape.
Also the Lifecycles were set up by the windows facing the gigantic
pool. Oh, the cost was $10 for the week.

| 236.9 | Anyone know FOR SURE? | VISUAL::SCOPA | I'd rather be in Orlando | Mon Aug 26 1991 13:02 | 8 |
| Are exercise facilities available to on-site guests?
Do you have to be a guest at a resort to be allowed to use their
facilities?
For instance, can a CBR guest use the GF facilities?

| When we came out of the Yachtsman Steakhouse in the Yacht Club after
dinner last weekend, we noticed the Exercise Room with LOADS!!! of
new equipment. Big window to look out of while exercising, view is
of Stormalong Bay pool. Looked nice.

| 236.11 | MASSAGES, anyone ? | RAVEN1::JBLAIR | | Thu Mar 12 1992 17:15 | 8 |
|
Has anyone availed themselves of the massages advertised by some of
the Health Clubs within the resorts? My husband and I will be at the
YACHT CLUB and I was curious about the cost of one and if it was
worth it. We're going for the 'vacation of decadence', you know,
eating too much, drinking too much, etc. and want to make sure we
don't miss out on anything! :-).
