long time no blog! 24 hour fitness

yes yes i know, i've been neglecting my blog! so i have a few entries that i've been meaning to write about. get ready for some reading material! haha

so recently elaine got a gym membership at 24 hour. apparently they are having a new high end gym coming in mountain view - similar to club one and equinox. elaine got a membership for 700 something for three years and a renewal fee of 99 a year afterwards. so cheap! especially considering i got mine for 600 something and 49 a year afterwards. so then i go in to see if i can add this new super duper gym membership. the guy who was all nice to elaine and trying so hard to get her business had a complete attitude change and just simply didn't seem like he wanted my business at all. instead he blamed it on 24 hour's crazy promotions which expire at a moment's notice!

well the new gym will open in a few months. i was quoted that i had to pay $20 a month extra if i want to join the super duper gym. i don't really think this is a great deal since elaine heard a friend of hers could have added the super duper gym for 7 dollars a month.

we were wondering...why all of a sudden this personality difference? then i remembered. it was july 1st. elaine was in at the end of the month and i'm at the very beginning of the month. it's amazing what end of the month quotas do for sales people.

also, i'm not sure i'll join this super duper gym anyways since i work out everywhere. arques, hillsdale, cottle, saratoga, fremont, san mateo, san carlos. i've been to quite a few 24 hour gyms.

my favs?
cottle is huge, nice, clean and well lit. it's close to my house but it's far from everything else. cottle also has the cutest boys. in case you were wondering. haha. hey...whatever gets me to the gym.

saratoga is small, stuffy but has the essentials. not my favorite but it's the one that a lot of my friends work out in.

fremont is the gym i'm most comfortable at. it has all the machines and weights i normally use, isn't that crowded (of course I go there only on off times). it's not the cleanest but it's pretty good. meaning I won't hop around on one foot while i switch shoes because i'm not afraid to touch the floor.

i'm curious to see what the new gym has...
