Alex Gym

This is a basic local bodybuilding gym with everything you need except a squat rack. The weights are not labeled with reliable numbers, as most of them are made out of car parts. It is a bit crowded in the early evening. A day pass cost us 50 birr, though I suspect it would cost less for a local. The music is loud and energetic, and the gym has a hardworking vibe.

Decent gym but nothing great. Lots of homemade machines and weights, no cardio equipment, no squat rack. All the barbells are fixed weight. Generally no foreigners. 50 birr day pass. Fine for a few days in Ethiopia.

Good for budget.
