My ex-boss did a 9 Round and is doing really well. It's a franchise with a low buy-in and they help you out a lot. They are very compact too. 3000 sq-ft isn't a micro-gym to me.
Took your survey.
I wouldn't go to a gym like a 9 Round. I like free weights and stuff. I am not against group classes. When I was young I did them because they were fun and let's face it you get to face some nice T&A at times.
The atmosphere, upkeep and cleanliness of a gym is paramount to me.
I don't care about training nor services.
I would buy my supplements from a gym providing they were competitive with mail order. Sadly they are usually WAY more expensive. That said, in a bind I have bought from a gym before that had pricing slightly better than local stores and I wanted to start a product that day....that was long ago. Now with bodybuilding.com and being in Florida, I can have a product show up the next day or two.
My ideal gym would have some heavy lifting area, the machines, a good set of pulleys, some cardio machines (elliptical, stairs and treadmill). It would also have a stretching / balance area. Has to have parking at it...I tried some gyms that get crappy parking arrangements, no thanks. I want my gym close to my home now since I lift early morning. When I am single, I may travel to a gym by my office or home depending on if it offers what I want plus women. I want a pleasant staff, but they don't have to be ass-kissers; just be ok with me when the scanner isn't reading my card or I come to say the music stopped or that everyone is hating it.
I have a great local gym, it's $37 a month (with tax) one year contract to start and then month to month and each additional member (same household) is $29 a month (with tax) and no contract needed. It's a 10 min slow walk from my house.
