What has the world come to???

[Delinquent]

I tried posting this on the chat board but those people arent' interested in anything but their crowd.
My girlfriend went to Euro fitness, a new gym, to check how they are. Well, every cardio machine had 200 channel digital cable tv's on the machines and internet access on them. computer operated machines, 20,000 sq ft gym, touchscreen machines, and 100 types of cardio machines. The total price for my girlfriend and I was $1380 per year. What the fuck is that?? Sorry about the profanity but that is ridiculous. We are totally happy with our piece of shit paramount gym that costs $40/month for both of us. What do you guys think?? Do you actually pay that much just for a gym?

Hell NO!!! Thats for the yuppie crowd...bells & whistles do not make a better body!!! RADAR

Hell

the damn Powerhouse in town is likely close to that price!
Never gotten an actual quote, just rumored to be roughly a grand per year.

Lifetime @ $16/month isn't so bad for WG membership I guess. Shit it was $8/month 10 years ago, though.

I pay $29 at Gold's, newer members pay $49 but I am locked in at that price. Went to Vegas last Feb. and a one year renewal there was only $100, felt like I was getting ripped off. All I need is for my partner to plug his laptop in and start downloading porn while spotting me.

i work out at ballys and pay 34 a month.the place is huge,couldnt ask for much better.

I'm at LA Fitness now... The gym is overcrowded for sure, but the price is right. My buddy and I got a deal where we only pay about $20 a month. If it wasn't for that I'd probably be at Bally's because it's not such a zoo at night. The Q club out here is the nicest/most high tech facility we have and it's SO damn expensive, I could never afford a month there.

fuck that..id rather cut sugar cane in cuba or lift bricks....the gym in my school is free if not id being going to a ghetto as gym that charges no more than 30-35 dollars a month...

 

[BTLFED]

Damn!!!! $115/month. I belong to 24 and a local gym and pay not even half of that. Its bad enough seeing everybody run their jaw in the gym.

Truthfully..

Ack...


This is the truth tough....I am sad to say. I have travelled a WHOLE throught Europe (hell I was born there) and through Asia (mostly Japan). ALL the fucking technology (including those that we develop) go into practice there first. Bullshit on the bells and whistles post....200 channel TV on your cardio KICKS ASS. You dont have to get a crick in your neck to watch a TV on the ceiling. Internet access is even better...

Just think...you could be on Elitefitness WHILE you are in the gym!
