If you're a casual gym-goer, you may want to consider your local Y. Especially if it has other amenities, like a pool or racquetball courts. Plus, you'd be giving your money to a charitable organization that gives free classes (probably) to underprivileged kids.

Casual best describes how I'd use it. The Y is a little out of the way, but we're talking a 10-minute drive as opposed to 5, so it ain't exactly a hardship.

Jesus fuck arbitrated gym disputes. I'm curious how the industry became so mired in contractual horror, but I suspect the answer is just "people are making money and customers don't know any better."

I learned the hard way that their 'if you move outside of X range' distances are calculated as the crow flies, not as it would take you to drive.

But I second the Y. I loved having a Y membership, last I did.
