I can't say that I have been to many other fitness clubs, because I just haven't. My only extensive experience has been with 24 Hour Fitness, but overall it has been a very satisfying experience. I have been "going to the gym" at 24 for the last few years, and I can't really think of a time that I have been bothered or dissatisfied. Here are a few thoughts on the benefits of working out at a 24 Hour Fitness location.

ALL OVER THE PLACE

There are a lot of 24 Hour Fitness locations in my area, so it is always easy to work out. Granted, I always go to the location by my house, but it is nice to know that I could go to other places if I wanted to move around.

CLEAN AND WORKING

A nice thing that I have experienced at 24 Hour Fitness is the fact that the machines and equipment are always clean and working well. This is a major benefit because fitness centers can sometimes be busy. If machines are off-line or dirty, it can a major distraction for the busy person who is trying to get in a workout.

NICE AND NON-PUSHY STAFF

I have always found the 24 Hour Fitness staff to be kind and courteous. This is a good thing since a health center is often built on service. Also, I have never found them to be pushy people who are trying to sell me more complex fitness plans. This is a plus because when I go to the gym, I just want to go to the gym and have a good workout. I just want to sweat.

AVAILABILITY OF EQUIPMENT

I have gone to the gym at a variety of times during the day. While there are times when it is fairly busy, I have never had a time where I could not get on a machine. Granted, there have been a few times where I couldn't get a particular type of machine, but for the most part 24 Hour Fitness has a good variety of equipment and a nice balance of units. This gives the user the opportunity to get on a variety of exercise equipment without having to wait.

WATCHING TV

I can't say that the selection of channels is always the best, but it is nice to be able to watch TV sometimes. I have sometimes gone to the gym when there is a football, baseball, or basketball game on TV. Then, I can workout while watching the game, which I would probably be doing at home anyway.

Overall, I am happy to recommend 24 Hour Fitness to other people. As mentioned, I have been there for a few years and I have had a very satisfying experience. Get a towel and go find a center near you.
