I use to work out at Premier Fitness but that business was a debacle that didn't end well, read the review on my page for more details.
In my search for a new gym, I was looking for a gym that wasn't too crowded, had all the basic cardio/weight machines along with a decent amount of free weights and didn't cost me an arm and a leg each month. So my friend recommended a place called Fit 4 Less owned by Goodlife Fitness that was only $10/month and open 24/7.
I didn't believe him, so I went to check it out for myself. The deal is legitimate, the basic plan is $10/month with a one time $25 joining fee with the option of cancelling anytime as long as you buy out the remainder of the annual fee. Essentially $5 is taken from your bank account every other week.
Pros:
1. A fair amount of new cardio and weight machines. Fair amount of free weights with dumbbells ranging from 5-75 pounds.
2. It's open 24/7 but it's only staffed Mon -Fri 7am -10pm and Sat -Sun 11am - 4pm.
3. Really affordable.
4. Not too crowded.
5. Ample parking.
6. Owned by Goodlife Fitness
Cons:
1. Open 24/7 but not staffed 24/7.
2. No classes (i.e. spin classes, yoga classes) but that's how they are able to offer such cheap monthly rates.
3. No water fountain and tiny washrooms with no showers. It's really really basic.
Essentially the gym is perfect for people who are looking for a good workout and not looking for any extra amenities.
