Hey all, I just redid my membership with 24 hour fitness.. The new deal came with a couple free training sessions...

I'm not crazy about even taking them up on it if they are just going to be sales sessions where they try to get me to buy a package..

I've been working out for over 10 years, and currently I'm in the gym doing weights 6 days a week now, and 5 - 8 additional times doing cardio.

I know I don't know nearly everything there is to know about fitness and the gym, but I wonder if this will be worth my time?

well my ex used to work at 24hr and was a personal trainer there and the first few were sales pitches but i would tell them that u r not comin for them 2 waste your time. b strait up and u still might learn something from them.

They will just try and sell to you.

I agree with prez. If you don't mind putting your foot down and tell them you aren't looking for any packages. Tell them your history and maybe they can give you some new things to try. We can always learn something.

LOL that's hilarious... well actually.. I started reading my contract last night.. it's actually 5 free training sessions, and they billed me for it! $280

BUT, If any of you saw my post about gettting a good deal from 24 hour, I still think it was a good deal, and it was built in the price. total of $888 for 3 years then $49 a year every year after that. so the real membership was only like $600 but they don't let you just get that.

I've decided that I'm going to give the sessions to my fiancee. she really wants them.. BUT, I'm giving her the condition that she has to tell the Trainer any future sessions after the 5 have to be OK'd with me, (they wont be) and that since we all know they make commissions off of their supplements, the only supps, they can reccomend to her have to be from a different store!

well.. ok or deca. ;)
