Looking for gym recommendations near Shinsaibashi in Osaka

Hi all!

I’ll be commuting to the Shinsaibashi area or at least close to it.

I need some recommendations for a gym. I’m looking for a gym that isn’t too packed, has plenty of equipment (especially the elusive squat racks), and friendly staff.

The bonus would be a calisthenics friendly gym equipped with gymnastics rings etc. If I have to bring my own gym rings then I will do it, but a pull up bar at least is a must.

Also not a deal breaker, but I understand phone use in the gyms is fairly strictly frowned upon. I would love to at least be able to listen to a podcast etc. without causing any trouble, so a gym with a culture that supports that would be great, but if that’s not possible then しょうがないね!

Thank you so much!
