i've moved a lot and have been a member of several different gyms...

fitworks/golds/urban active...


all decent gyms.....all over priced...all required an annual contract


my current gym is simply the local YMCA which has a gym that rivals any of the places above....while not all Ys have such a good workout facility this one does and it is just $30 a month with no contract


that's for several pools...any amenity that a large fitness center has(sauna/spa/trainers) and all the extra silly crap that comes with the Y...a daycare area...basketball courts...indoor track...anything u could want


the offer you have there is just slightly more than what i pay

and as long as you are ok with the contract i'd say go for it...it seems like a better deal than i've ever had from a fitness center...i simply hate the nazi attitude the places i've been have with the contract....


example (urban active)....

me: hey...i got a hernia working out in your club....not your fault...but obviously i can't use your facilities for several months after the surgery....any way you can work with me here?

them: nope

me: that's fine...just know after my contract expires i will never have anything to do with your business again


example 2(fitworks):

me: hey...my job requires me to move...gonna need to break that contract under the "moving clause"

them: you know if your new address is within 40 miles of one of our centers you can't break your contract?

me: yup

them: gonna need your new address...ok...<give it to them and watch them pull up a map measuring the distance>

them: it's only 10 miles outside the distance...you sure you don't want to just keep the membership?

me: no one wants to travel 50 miles to a gym every day...just cancel it

them: ok....we need proof you are living at this address...mail us some kind of proof....if we don't get the proof in 3 days we will charge you for next month...no refunds

me: not a problem....here is my lease

them: <frown> well the charge may still go thru...sometimes they are slow about these things...

me: that's ok...i will just dispute the charges with my CC company and present this form you just signed....good day
