| - Best gym ever. I hate going to normal gyms. I have never been able to keep going for longer than a couple weeks, but ProtoGym made a huge difference for me. I've been going to ProtoGym consistently for 8 months now.
The difference is that it's a smaller gym, people and friendly and there to actually work out, the owner is a personal trainer and always willing to help, and most of all, the software that the owner has made. The software builds a workout routine for you to follow. All you have to do is mindlessly click on auto-generate workout, choose how long you want to work out, print, and then follow what it tells you to do.
The software uses circuit training, so a couple exercises back to back with little rest in-between followed by a longer break. It consistently kicks my butt. The better/stronger that you get, the harder it will work you. Circuit training and some of the exercises that it asks you to do are a little different than what most people used to, but I was able to get over it quickly because most of the people around you are doing the same type of exercises, so you don't look out of place.
Most of the time it's not too busy, but there have been nights where it is packed. The owner is expanding into the vacant commercial space next to the gym though, so soon there will be a lot of additional space.
I'm paying $25 for the no-contract option without any of the classes that the owner runs. For $35 you get one boot camp class a month.
Because of this gym and the owner's nutrition advice, I was able to gain 30lbs, mostly muscle =) , in about 6 months.
