I can’t imagine opening gyms and being around all these assholes nowadays.

Good gyms are becoming more of a rarity.
Most are filled with horrible douche-canoes.   ::)

Incredible gym.

Gyms are now an arms race...who can have more stuff.

1 year contract only $47/mo. (paid up front $575)

I paid $40/mo in the early 1980s.  That's growth!

Meanwhile some idjit is sitting on a $2,000 bench behind him texting or watching tiktok instead of working out.

He co-opted Vince G's saying...

What's goin' on, guys?

I pay $565.00 a year (x 2 w/ wife) so $1,130.00.
We also only use it 2x a week. (I do 3 days at home).
2 days is fine for her (and upper day and a lower day).

If this place ever closed I would not go to another one.
This one has been here 20 years, and makes money. (Might be a rarity).
I hear most gyms don't make much money at all.

He bought a 2nd one during RONA and opened it soon after the "scam" subsided.
I tried it once and didn't like it. Odd people / atmosphere, not great equipment, etc..

No other options around me. Glad I don't need to depend on it w/ my home gym.

My wife doesn't like training in a 30-degree garage in the winter (go figure) so its a good option for her.
Only 7 mins away.

Again, if this place (that I go to) closed, that would be it.. (Unless someone else re-opened it, etc).

At night I hear it's a broccoli-headed nightmare (like most gyms). I go at 5:30 AM.

 George snyder was pretty ambitious, but most of his projects fell apart. he franchised gyms most changed their name after a year or two,
