I’m here for a good time long time, every workout day would be fire in that gym. It literally has everything you can imagine. Even has those fast treadmills that you can sprint on



the chit looks lit and the girls there are sexy as hell. So many facilities and benefits

I've belonged to $275/mo gyms and $20/mo gyms... let me tell you the only plus to the $275/mo gym is that it filters out most teens, joggers, astronauts, and lunchtime rowdies. Which is to say, it's definitely worth it.

Expensive gyms are like an HOA. It keeps out undesirables.

Your boxing classes built into gyms are gonna suck for actually learning to box though. It’ll be fun cardio, but you’re not gonna learn more than at a dedicated boxing gym.

in my teens i worked at a lifetime fitness, it was a plat level and membership was $350 a month. Most members were govt contractors so it was fully covered by insurance and they got incentives for scanning in 3x per week.

And usually much hotter women as well from all ages. Either sugar babies and models or MILFs with rich husbands.

This is true. For some reason fat women are rare at these gyms, despite the fact most of them have cafes serving up tasty sensible meals and smoothies right by the front desk.

yeah, locker rooms are massive, lockers lock with your keycard. Dry and wet Saunas, like 50x showers that are stocked with hotel style soap, shampoo, shaving cream, toothpaste, razors, toothbrush. Towels and washrags stay stocked in the hundreds.

Olympic sized swimming pool, 1 heated 1 non, Multiple Jacuzzis. Probably 30 different olympic racks wrapping around the gym, was nuts
