That place looks like its ridiculously busy every single time I drive past there. Doesnt matter what time of day it is, if theyre open the parking lot is packed.
Yes it is insanely busy most hours of the day. I try to get in there between 2p-2:30p during the week and at 7am on Saturday and its not that bad. I refuse to go in there anytime after 5pm during the week. Its a friggin mad house!
My new job has a full gym on campus so I cancel my gym membership, however used to do planet fitness. Can’t beat 10 dollars a month. Anything more is just robbery unless your some serious weight trainer who needs all the extra little features there is no reason to pay more.
Unless like above it’s 1 or 2 miles away.

You get what you pay for in most cases.
Ever thought about doing something like CrossFit or taking boxing/mma classes? I think the group exercise aspect of it keeps a lot of people on top of going to a gym and taking it seriously. If you don’t have discipline to go on your own regularly, it’s a major incentive.

I was thinking about this as well. When I had people to go to the gym with I always went, then when everyone started moving away and there was nobody else going I stopped going as well.
I always hear mixed results about crossfit, like serious weight lifters say its horrible for you because the moves can be kind of out of control?
Honestly unless a gym is super expensive it should be about which is more convenient for you to go to. I would suggest paying monthly without a commitment vs paying for a year up front. There's many reasons or excuses why you wouldn't go and throw that money away.
My first gym was part of my apartment complex, free with rent. Had 80% of everything I would have ever used. I rarely used it.
I then had a gym across the parking lot of work and had 3 friends that pushed and motivated me. It was $5 a paycheck and had more equipment that I ever used. I went 5 days a week for 4 years consistently, I went from being an out of shape fatass to the best shape of my life (late 20's early 30's)
I switched jobs and started at XSport think it was $30 a month and I only went a handful of times.
I also tried LA Fitness which is 2 blocks from my house $30 a month, again I paid for a 1 year commitment and only went twice. Complete waste of money.
Point being, if your self motivated doesn't matter where you go or what you pay only that you go. If your not self motivated find some friends or co-workers and go to their gym.
