I don't know if its just me but I have never understood why people pay 00s of pounds to join these places..........
1) Treadmill:- You could actually you know..... run!
2) Various forms of Bike/Spinner or other "trendy" name:- You could ride on a real bike.... and get to places.....
3) Loud music: Buy an I-Pod and listen to stuff you choose!
4) Really fit, sexy girls getting sweaty, striking poses and jiggling up and down wearing nothing but skin tight lycra......
Errrrrrrr not sure my argument is that convincing now I think about it!

Go for it then (if it's possible, avoid a 12 month contract though - ask if you can sign up for 3 months initially and pay it up front) that way you get a feel for the place and if you like it or not

I finish work at 3:30 in Durham, and have to hang around to pick my hubby up at 6!
