advice

I want to join a gym but don't know if to join a woman's gym or a Co-Ed gym.........

People tell me to join a Co-Ed gym since I might meet some guy friends but this one woman's gym offers a very good deal.........

Any suggestions?

To be honest with you, having a gym membership is about one main thing; going to the gym, and getting into shape. If you would like to join a co-ed gym to meet men as well as women, there is nothing wrong with that at all. Just ask yourself the personal question, "Why am I going to get a gym membership?" Only you have to know the answer, and you don't need to explain it to anybody. If you simply just want to get in shape, it would probably be a wise descision to just go with the better deal on the women's gym. If you want to make friendships as well as work out, then it depends. There are plenty of places to meet new men and women, places that you don't even need to pay for. You must ask yourself if the extra bucks will be worth it. You must also take into account that even if you join the co-ed gym, alot of the men there will be working out; sometimes into it too much that they won't even realize you're there. However, i'm sure there are quite a few that go to the gym solely to meet women, as well as do the occasional two pound dumbbell curl. You just never know until you try the gym out I suppose. See if you can get a visitors pass to experience the gym first hand, and see if you could see yourself there. A good majority of gyms nowadays offer limited time free trials because they figure if you try it, you will essentially buy the membership. See if you like it and go from there. One more consideration I would take into account is conveniance, or, would it be realistic to go to this gym everyday to work out? If you have to drive 10 miles to go to one gym, and walk a block to the other gym, which one seems to be a better choice? Plus one gym may be closer, but you may walk in and see nothing but dumbbells and free weights, when all you want to do is a run on the treadmill. Make sure you look into what you are buying before you buy it! I hope you make a good decision and that everything works out for you! Dave
