- Just at Go Gym at the moment.
This place is massive.
Huge.
There's the front entrance, just over there.
Big exhaust fans right through this giant shed here,
which was something else
and now turned into a gym since 2014.
(light pop music)
February 2018, in my favourite form of transport,
the Tuk Tuk.
Off to Go Gym here in Chiang Mai to do a chest
and tricep session and do a quick review on the gym itself.
So, come and join me if you like training all overseas,
you might like this video.
If you don't care about training
(beeping)
We almost died,
then don't watch this video,
but I think you should watch it anyway.
Alright.
Go Gym, here we come.

- Alright my friends, just walked out of my Tuk Tuk,
and 200 Baht later, just walking up to the gym now.
So, that's what it looks like, a shed.
The driver wanted to take me to a Boom Boom bar,
I said, "No man, just take me to Go Gym.
"I should be happy with that."
I think that's it right there, where that shed is.
Anyway, I'll throw the location up on your screen,
on Google Maps.
But it's like a 10 minute Tuk Tuk ride from the Old City.
Yeah, so very, very close.
♪ How can you create something ♪
♪ When no one out there sees it ♪
- I can't find this place.
Because it's not actually that shed.
It's actually that shed right over there.
So when you see that shed,
you gotta turn left and walk this way.
And that's where the gym is.
Open air.

- Alright, just Go Gym at the moment.
This place is massive.
Huge.
There's the front entrance just over there.
Big exhaust fans right through this giant shed here,
which was something else
and now turned into a gym since 2014.
Check this out.
Benches, all free weights,
over here they have more benches, dumbbells,
right through here,
you have a combination set up here,
nice floors, treadmills, more benches right through here.
Man, this place is absolutely massive.
I'm walking straight through the centre of it.
The stretching area over to my right,
right through here,
all the stretching over here.
More benches over there, and then behind this mirror,
is a Muay Thai ring just here, and some bags,
because a gym in Thailand would not be complete
unless it had a Muay Thai ring in it.
Right there.
The bags set up, 2014, I don't remember this place
being here when I was here three years ago in Chiang Mai.
Check out this, supplement tubs,
more treadmills,
Ab Roar roller,
I was actually gonna try and do the ab roar roller
on this, just for shits and giggles.
Just for fun.
And you can practise your Olympic lifting here,
they've got all the mats set up for that.
There's a guy here before doing Olympic lifting,
and that's it.
It's huge.
It's a massive gym.
60 Baht to get in here, which is like
three Australian dollars.
And it's massive,
it has all the equipment that you need times three.
They've got bars over the other side, I'll quickly show you.
Walk this way.
I mean you gotta get down here and check this place out.
All the bars here, monkey bars here,
right through here,
rings, more machines, free weights, ropes.
It just goes on and on and on.
And check this out,
I'm not sure about the mattresses though,
look at these dirty old mattresses, with a rope.

Weight training, then cardio,
ie: Muay Thai on the bag right there,
at least the best that I,
what I know of Muay Thai anyway.
I'm off.
(cough)
Yeah, can I please have a,
one scoop of this?
- [Server] One scoop.
- Well my friends, I'm getting a protein shake post-workout.
70 Baht,
just under three Australian dollars.
Check this out.
The powder has no label on it.
No label on the powder.
Could be getting anything.
Could be getting sawdust.
Here you go, thank you.
70 Baht.
Cheers.
- Thank you. - Thank you very much.
That was good.
Thanks mate.
Alright guys,
just finished a training session at Go Gym for 60 Baht.
Just walking out now,
and really, really pumped, just spoke to a guy.
And he's a digital nomad, been living here,
working out of here as a drop-shipper.
And super cool.
I've actually spent a few hours here,
just chatting to a few people, having a protein shake,
relaxing, filming, training,
doing Muay Thai practise on those bags over there,
and just having the time of my life.
Absolutely love this place.
This place has only been around since 2014.
It's 2017.
Ciao.
One of the trainers, one of the Muay Thai trainers in there.
Bye.
(laughing)
Oh man, the people are so awesome here,
and I'm gonna find a taxi.
Make sure I got my phone, my money, my backpack, my camera,
and you saw the facilities.
Just brilliant.
Come and check it out and you can get a Tuk Tuk here
from the Old City, basically anywhere in the Old City,
uh, this cat.
Almost walked on the cat,
and it costs you about 150 Baht, maybe 100 Baht,
to get a Tuk Tuk from the Old City to this gym:
Go Gym.
And if you want to do a month to month membership at Go Gym,
it'll cost you about $40 Australian, about 1000...
But I'll throw the prices up on your screen
and it'll cost you about 1000 Baht.
And that is it.
So, right now, I'm gonna go
and find somewhere to have a massage.
And that's it.
So time to find a Tuk Tuk head back into the city,
get a massage and have some dinner.
Let's do this.
♪ Grind on, grind on ♪
♪ Feeling under pressure like a coal mine ♪
- Hey Guys, a quick update for you.
I'm in a Tuk Tuk, and it's really bumpy.
And I should've hired a motorbike because it's a lot easier
to get around Chiang Mai with a motorbike.
I was literally walking back from the gym, from Go Gym,
to head back to the Old City,
so I can get a massage.
Anyway, I managed to get a Tuk Tuk,
I'll continue this later as it's a little too clunky.
I apologise.
We'll speak soon.
Just got dropped off by the Tuk Tuk, 100 Baht,
as I said before,
it's a lot easier if you just get a, sorry guys,
if you just hire a motorbike and just get around that way.
It's much much easier than having to find a Tuk Tuk,
which are not very common outside the Old City.
Anyway, time to get a massage.
About to get a quick meal here.
I've been here a few times.
Cheap, fusion Thai, right here.
I don't even know what this place is called,
but it's, I'll throw it up on the map on your screen
so you can see it.
But this place is super high turnover,
the food is dirt cheap,
and it's great after a Muay Thai training session,
or a weight training session,
and I can come here and they have some veggies here.
I'll try and see, you remember that sign?
Thai Fusion, right there.
That's what it looks like.
And it's always, always filled with people.

- Guys, for less than $4 Australian dollars,
you get amazing fresh veggies.
Incredible.
I love this place.
♪ Make sure that this bubble flow ♪
♪ Shoulders heavy, I'm ready to go and roll the app ♪
- Alright, just finished dinner and three mains.
As you saw before, three mains, 80, 90 Baht each,
I'll flash it up on your screen
just to remind you what it was.
And the total bill came to 280 Baht,
which is just under $12 Australian dollars
for fresh veggies.
There was veggies and cashew nuts in one main,
there was chicken and veggies in another main,
and then there was prawns, four prawns, four,
and veggies in the third main and a bottle of water
for 280 Baht at that Asian, Thai Asian place.
And it was just unbelievably awesome.
So I've been there a few times already
and highly recommend it.
Again, I'll throw it up on your screen.
I'm about to go get a massage now.
I'll show you where I go.
It's like two, three, 400 Baht
for a one hour massage.
You can't beat it.
So anyway, let's find a place.
Right now.

♪ But I might want to prove ♪

- Alright.
Coconut ice cream
(music drowns out speaker)
No thank you.
That's all good.
40 Baht man.
Thanks for that.
Look at that.
I'd thought I'd pick up a coconut ice cream.
It's 40 Baht.
Check that out.
(laughing)
Cheers man.
Right here on the side of the street,
right next to the tour agent that I bought the ticket for
Doi Suthep tomorrow.
Look at that.
I don't usually eat a lot of ice cream in my life,
but, why not?
It's only, only 40 Baht.
So anyway, I have this and then, and then, and then
we'll get a massage.
I promise.
