Fitness

During Covid there were about 3 public gyms to choose from in Ubud, now there are dozens ranging from local and fun to state-of-the-art and serious.

I'll be adding a map so you can choose a suitable gym close to where you are staying, but you also might prefer a more niche facility.

For yoga and pilates, see post linked at the end.

Massa's Fitness Centre - a bit of an icon in Ubud, Massa's in Peliatan has been around for ages. Its old school: basic, clean, and super cheap but has alot of machines and qualified trainers. 50k for a day pass

Ubud Muay Thai - as the name suggestions, this gym in Nyuh Kunung focusses on martial arts training. They offer group and individual classes at all levels for Muay Thai, boxing, strength and conditioning. You can also pay for a daily pass (100k or 1.8m for a month) to use their basic but pleasant facilities. I recommend the individual classes (from R500k) - the guys here are knowledgeable and its a real full-body workout.

Byson Gym - in South Ubud near the Westin, this is another very local gym (no AC). Very nice people, super cheap (50K) but a little busy after work (from 6pm).

Boom Gym - in Lod Tonduh, South Ubud, Boom is a modern gym, new, airconditioned gym which is one of the cheapest on the list. Just 50k for daily entry, and from 350k for a month, they also have clean showers, a sauna and a protein bar. The buff local guys who run this gym are fun too.

Ubud Gym - at just 20k per session, this is the cheapest on the list. Its right near town next to the Arjuna statue but in this case you get what you pay for. Ubud Gym is super basic and a little rough. Suitable for those on a budget but not much else.

Goa Gajah Gym - In eastern Ubud this is a pleasant local and cheap gym with a gorgeous outlook over the Petanu valley. Classes are in Bahasa Indonesia, but all the trainers and atendants speak English.

Restu Gym - in South east Ubud, Restu is an inexpensive local gym with a lovely garden. It is spacious and has a decent amount of equipment. No AC but this is pleasant and friendly - great for begineers.
