LA Fitness vs. Retro Fitness
March 2, 2009
I remember hearing a piece of advice many years ago that has stuck with me in spite of the fact that I have never actually used it: when faced with a major decision, make an alphabetical list of both the pros and cons. Well, I’m thinking about switching from LA Fitness to Retro Fitness, which is $15 a month cheaper, but I’m far too lazy to list twenty-six pros and twenty-six cons in alphabetical order, but here are some things that I need to consider:
LA Fitness:
- Has a pool, though I’ve never used it.
- Has a sauna, which I’ve used a handful of times, but it’s also full of naked dudes that are just waiting to post Missed Connections about me.
- Has heavy bags, which I used all of the time.
- Full of hot asian babes that’ll never talk to me, ever.
- I have “gym friends” there.
- More machines.
- Closer to my house.
Retro Fitness:
- $15 a month cheaper.
- Nicer (yet fewer) showers, though I’ve never showered at the gym.
- Individual TVs on each piece of cardio equipment. LA Fintess has a couple of TVs hanging pretty far away that only show CNN or ESPN.
- Full of trashy broads that may possibly one day talk to me.
- Very close to a Taco Bell.
I don’t know what to do!
