How is the experience? A friend of mine recommended it to me for things I dont have and can’t fit in my garage gym (massage, tanning, leg machine). What ones are good, what ones are bad? Closest to me in Blaine but im equally close to white bear lake (so NE METRO). Not willing to drive much further |

Then makes it intolerable to cancel. Their only thing is its cheap (hoping you give up on canceling and just let it ride). |
The plane flew, admit you're wrong and get over it.

I think a lot of it is location-dependent. The older facilities tend to have equipment that is out of order for a time, so if the ones by you are newer you will probably have a better experience. It also depends on when you want to go. I was a member at the Riverdale one, but it was frequently overrun by teenagers. Of course, the times I would go were mid-afternoon, so if you were a morning guy you may not run into that. It's cheap enough to at least give it a shot for a bit to see how you like it. They tend to run specials with no initiation fee so if you only do it for a few months and then quit you're only out the monthly fee. |
