Ventilation unknown, environment not 100% is something only you know what it means. Figure out how important that is. You have to wait for apparatus now and then where you are and it irritates you. All in all, pass.

#3 Distance, see #2. Not crowded, free classes, shiny bonus. Cancellation policy, what's to lose by trying?

#4 Known quantity, shiny isn't always better. Walking distance could be a huge deal maker.

Okay, try #3 for 2 week trial and either love it or get it out of your system with the knowledge that #4 is waiting in the wings.

Gee, this is a whole lot easier when you're deciding for someone else!

Riiiight??? lol

I basically came to the same conclusion and signed up. The sale was too good to pass up. I went even though I had a miserable day, was nauseous and my head felt like it was going to explode. Additional bonuses I learned about in the sign up process include, but are not limited to, the following:

• the ability to freeze my account for several months and pick up right where I left off whenever I choose
  
• have a cc on file and have paid first and last month's dues but I can also pay in advance via cc or cash if I would rather it not go on my card
  
• a juice bar will open up within the month inside the gym
  
• they have ropes!!!
  
• nearly everyone that works there has some sort of degree in fitness, physical therapy, nutrition, et cetera

There's more, but I can't think any more.

I'm thinking I will shut the account off when the weather gets too miserable to battle the roads and use the place next to me that I can walk over to and then cut that off and switch the other back on when the snow's lower than chest level.

I got a plan!!!
