Walk (Don’t Run) To A Gym Near You
Local vs. national chains: Local gyms reportedly work harder to retain
your membership because they don’t rely on high volume and low-fee
sales. They also don’t subject you to confusing promos, long-term deals,
and the big discrepancies in membership costs. The advantage of national
and regional gyms is their multiple locations, their often cheaper
membership dues and wider variety of equipment.

Convenience: Regardless of the cost of membership, joining a
gym is an expensive outlay if you don’t go. So make sure you
choose one that’s close to home or work and has what you’re
looking for in terms of amenities and programs.
Vibe factor: When you tour a gym, get a sense of how you feel
about it. If you’re intimidated by a busy gym crowded with buff
bodies, a large club may not be for you.
Get the timing down: During the last few days of the month,
many gyms come up with various specials to increase
membership. Spring is often a good time to find deals: More
people head outdoors for exercise, which translates into a
slowdown at health clubs.
Consider the amenities: Don’t pay for what you probably won’t
use. If you don’t swim, stay away from gyms with pools. If you
don’t have children, don’t let a gym that provides childcare hit
you up with higher dues that include childcare amenities.
Beware: Many gyms offer two or more free training sessions when you
join. But many health experts say that just a few sessions with a personal
trainer won’t translate into an individualized workout. To reap benefits
from a trainer, you’ll have to spend more than just a few workouts
(nothing against personal training [it can be great] – just be prepared to
put out more money if you choose to go that route).
