| - This gym is over sold. Period.
Really, I could stop right there but what's the fun in that.
Since cleaning out my proverbial closet of alcoholic loser 'friends', I tend to spend a lot of time at the gym. Between the gym in my building and this LA Fitness I try and work out about 5-6 days a week. I really prefer to use this gym is on the weekend though occasionally I'll go after work for the step mill (something my work gym doesn't provide) and to try and get some lifting in. TRY being the operative word. UGH! Where are all the damn free weights? Is everyone using 15-20lb weights? No, then where the fuck are they?
The cardio machines are all old and outdated and in the summer the place is a sweat box. A stinky one too, I'm talking to you onion lady! Wash your clothes. You smell like onion rings and feces. Geeeeez... Steer clear of the locker room too. Really, the building just needs an overhaul at this point.
Between onion lady, dodging MRSA and the swelter, it's hard to justify the $25 bucks a month. Yes, that's incredibly cheap but I feel gypped when I see how nice the Scottsdale and Ahwatukee locations are for the same price.
I will say, watching the gay boys eye rape my man like it's going out of style is wildly entertaining. The price one pays for being a hot straight man in a primarily gay establishment I suppose. Needless to say, due to the ratio, I get mostly left alone which is unusual in a gym environment and greatly appreciated. That and the proximity to work/home clearly is enough to keep me coming back.
*sigh*
