It took me some time - and I kept going back and forth but I finally decided to invest into my health and join this super expensive gym around the corner. There are cheaper options but this one has really nice amenities, including nice showers, a steam room and they provide all sorts of small things like nice lotion and my favorite are the the little fridges with wet towels that smell minty and fresh. And the classes are good - in short, I really like the gym and judging from the classes I also thought the instructors would be good.
Well, I guess they are but they also want to charge you not only for every training session but also - and I was surprised about that - for the training plan they - and this was they word they used 'crafted' for you. And not just 50 bucks - they actually recommended at least 10 sessions, costing the little fortune of more than 1000 dollars. Huge dislike! And then they also tell you that you should not be working out without a personal coach of course because you'll just end up doing everything wrong and screw up your body. I find this almost as outrageous as the doctors telling you that you absolutely HAVE to do this screen for only 500 bucks and that you might be sabotaging your health if you didn't. In any case, I think the monthly fees are crazy enough so I will simply continue with taking classes and maybe - God forbid- even do the odd work out on my own ;-)
