Is the Norwegian Joy gym better than the fitness centers on NCL’s newest ships? In this Norwegian Joy gym tour, we explore the cardio equipment, strength-training area, free weights, benches, Smith machine, ceiling height, and one major piece of equipment that is missing.
After previously criticizing the Norwegian Aqua gym, we compare the two fitness centers and explain where each ship gets it right. Norwegian Joy offers taller ceilings and a more open workout experience, especially when using the treadmills. However, Norwegian Aqua provides a stronger selection of strength-training equipment, including an adjustable dual-arm cable machine that Norwegian Joy does not have.
The Norwegian Joy fitness center includes treadmills, exercise bikes, rowing machines, free weights reaching approximately 75 pounds, workout benches, and one Smith machine. While the cardio selection is strong, the limited strength-training equipment may be disappointing for cruisers who want to maintain a complete workout routine at sea.
In this video, you’ll learn:
• What cardio equipment is available in the Norwegian Joy gym
• How heavy the free weights go
• Why the missing cable machine matters
• How Norwegian Joy compares with Norwegian Aqua
• Which ship has the stronger equipment selection
• Why taller cruisers may prefer Norwegian Joy’s higher ceilings
• Whether older NCL ships can outperform the newest ships in certain areas
