Price Crunch?

The crowding has gotten bad enough that I won't go on the weekends...the last time I tried it was an absolute zoo. I doubt a message to the manager will be effective, but a bad review on Yelp might be (they seem to have quite a few of those already, though).

All the reasons I have read above are why I go at 5:30 in the morning. lol I will agree though for the monthly membership fee the place is not up to par. Im a pretty heavy weight lifter and their weights section leaves much to be desired. There is only one of every machine and the weights are scattered all around every morning. I also dislike when there are like 3 or 4 personal trainers hogging up all the weights space with their clients. All in all though I go early and finish in about an hour and the gym is pretty much empty most of the time. Someone needs to pen up another gym in the neighborhood though. Although I cant think of a space of the top of my head where a nice sized gym could go.

Subject: Atlantic Ave. Y

The Y on Atlantic is only $48 a month for NYC employees. I think it is 15% more if you aren't one. So cheap and a great gym with a pool. I know its a bit of a hike, but by train its only 10 min.

Oh yeah the DJ thing is totally nuts. Thank you for more loud music AND taking up even more floor space. Plus they leave the usual background music on, and if you're REALLY unlucky, there's a loud spin class going on. If you DON'T wear headphones, you'll go mental.

I've been making it in there mid-morning on weekdays, and it's a little more tolerable. The days I can't get there until after 5, it's annoying as hell. It seems to clear out by 8:30 or 9, but that's usually a little late for my taste.

I think someone there might be reading this (perhaps the shill from earlier in this thread), 'cause I noticed their Comments box had magically reappeared when I went yesterday. Though it's still a bit inconspicuous.
