mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 The Wilderness Lodge has a gym, don't know if there is a fee. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ftwildernessguy 778 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 The exercise room at the lodge used to be open to Fort guests, too, but I am not sure if it still is. I would check at the concierge desk at Pioneer Hall. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BouncingTiggers 98 Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 You're on vacation. The only weights you should be lifting are dole whips & turkey legs. :rofl2: GaDawgFan.....Kelly 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mikeymouse1 25 Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 It's always fun to run at the fort it's flat there. We are in the hills of North Florida so it's a nice change. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marilyn 19 Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 walking 8 or 9 miles a day looking around is like not walking at all Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tigger 33 Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Thought about this myself a few times but once I got there and walked the park all day I didn't think about it anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 15 Posted March 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Well i am bringing a few hefty steaks, but still would like to lift at least 3 times this week(normally lift 6 days a week) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tigger 33 Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 I have walked by the gym a couple times and it looked nice but after walking around all day I couldn't find the energy to go in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is a little light on the free weights but over all very niceI just checked on this myself, as I was curious.According to the castmember on duty on Monday of this week, Sturdy Branches (that's what the WL health club is called) is open to FW guests at no charge when staff is on duty. That is from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm daily. You must show your room key (KTTW card) to the staff at the desk when entering. The facility is open 24 hours a day to WL guests. Their KTTW cards will open the door after hours. Fort KTTW cards will not.TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 they told me that also and then gave me a code to enter till 11 pmThat sounds about right.Ask two castmembers the same question, and more often than not you will get two different answers.I didn't see anywhere where you could use a code. I entered through the Villas lobby. Maybe there is another door where a code can be used?TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 15 Posted March 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I did not look myself but there are 2 doors from the loby one is a little further down from the main door, I managed to get there mid day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cunwdw 0 Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 The gym at the Lodge is a great place to work out. My husband and I walk the nature trail from the Fort over. It has beautiful scenery. The gym also offers massages if you need one. They will arrange a therapist to come to the gym at a time that is convenient for you. My husband had hurt his back last time we where in and the massage was the ticket to getting him mobile again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
