Day pass for $20? I think not
Even when on vacation, you still have to lift if that’s how your schedule falls. If you want to be the best you can be at something, you can’t take days off “just because”.
I went to a local gym with my brother on the New Jersey Shore to lift early Friday morning, and since he didn’t have guest privileges on his account, they wanted me to pay $20 for ONE visit. WHAT? I have heard amounts between 5 and 10 dollars… but double that? For that money I’d make sure I get some good use out of the equipment to make it worth while.
Luckily for me, one of the other guys working behind the counter somehow realized that charging a $20 fee to workout was insane for just one session, so he told me to give him just 5 dollars and we’d be set. I gladly gave him 5 and went on to lift.
Seriously guys, what are you thinking when you open a gym and try to charge a one time visitor $20 to lift for just one session? That would certainly have left a sour taste in my mouth had I been in the market for a new gym and was simply shopping around. I doubt I’d want to go there as a regular paying member just on principal.
