Gym on the Diamond Princess...?

Hi, I am going to be going on my first cruise ever this March (I am soooo excited already) and I am wondering how the gym is on the Diamond Princess cruise ships?

I am also curious about gyms/fitness facilities on other cruises.

I am one of those addicted-to-endorphin types who has to exercise:rolleyes: :D

Hi, I'm not sure about the Diamond Princess but if it's anything like the other Princess ships, the gym should be great. I too like to work out a lot, usually twice a day, so knowing what to expect would make it easier to plan my workouts for the cruise.

I think having a list of fitness equipment on cruise ships would be beneficial to anybody who is serious about staying in shape while away from home.

We'll be on the Crown Princess in 3 weeks and I've read somewhere that there are 22 treadmills among other Precor cardio and weight machines on board. They also have a few elliptical trainers but the problem there is that they're too big and there isn't enough head room for people over 6 feet... that sounds strange but I'll check it out and report back.

Enjoy your cruise and have a great time... and workouts. :D

Thanks for the reply:) I look forward to hearing how your cruise goes! I have been so thrilled to find that many cruises lines now strive to please even the crazy endorphin-addicted population like ourselves:D
