Blogging in Florida.

I polled the hospital nurses that are taking care of my mom and a few things become pretty clear.

Here are the Top 7 Tips About Gyms in Delray Beach Florida

1. most people hate Bally's
2. use the free trial week at several gyms before you join one
3. as soon as your hometown individually owned, non-chain gym gets bought out by one of the big fitness chains it will go downhill and fast
4. if your gym is not on your way to work or on your way home from work you will quickly stop going.
5. if your gym is not clean you will stop going
6. if your gym is crowded at the times you like t go you will stop going
7. read the fine print regarding getting out of your contract - especially the 30, 60 or even 90 day notification period you have to tell the gym you are quitting in advance or else they will keep taking your money from your bank.

No one else should be joining a gym. Work out at home. Walk around the block. Rent some exercise tapes from the library.
