Belly toning / sit-ups with broken neck
It's the area I wouldn't mind toning (two children and all that makes it the first place to go a bit saggy), but as I have a broken neck, I feel uncomfortable doing normal sit-ups or using a roller thingie.

I am livid. Went to this gym for years. During the day, It use to be £40.00 including a towel. Several years ago, they changed it to £45.00.
