Our gym membership at Gold's is going to expire in October. J wants to renew his portion and I would like to renew mine as well as long as it doesn't mean having us both sign up for another 2 years (we don't have that kind of time here). Problem for me is that I don't get over there often enough to make it worth the money (J goes there on his way home from work). Ideally I would like to go there more but I don't know that I will and I feel like I would be signing up just so I wouldn't be admitting defeat.
There is a gym that is within 1/2 a mile of my house that I think I would go to more, but I think it also costs more than Gold's. I need to go to talk to them because it would be awesome to have one so close...I could walk over there everyday and not feel like I was wasting gas...
Note: another underlying issue with me and Gold's gym is that I hate the contract stuff and it irritates me to no end that they can't just have people that want to pay each month do that instead of locking us in for 2 years. That is the number one reason I don't do cell phones too.

I bet if you went to the gym by your house and tell them you'd like to join, but you don't want to pay more than Gold's that they would cut you a deal. Most of the gyms are VERY competitive. You just need to play them off of each other.
Many years ago, my parents and I joined Gold's. I hated that place. I felt totally out of place with the whole macho muscle man atmosphere. Go with where you're comfortable, or you won't go at all!
I am comfortable at our Gold's first off because it is mostly filled with retirees but also because the whole gym scene doesn't bother me, I think it is amusing to watch all the peacocks strut around...
I would just go more I think if it were closer and this gym is really close. Problem is that it is part of one of the big hospitals up this way, so I am not sure how much they compete with the other gyms. Pluses besides location are that they have an indoor pool, spa and sauna, and they have an indoor track....might be nice during the winter to walk indoors sometimes.
