Be Careful of Free Trial Memberships
To gain new members, most gyms offer free trial memberships. However, these free trial memberships come with a caveat, especially those that require you to input your credit card information first before availing. There’s a huge chance that they have written in fine print on their contracts stipulating that if you don’t attend the gym for the full duration of the free trial, you’ll be forced to pay for a multi-year full membership.
The Truth About Equipment Maintenance
Since they have little to no liability when it comes to any injury while you’re at the gym, most gyms don’t really take it upon themselves to clean and maintain their equipment. In fact, most are not even legally required to do so, meaning that there’s always some risk involved when using some of the weight equipment.
