I guess it has to do something with me going later in the evening.
8-10ish as compared to 4-7:30 which is usually very busy.

gotta love the trainers at my local goodlife... *note that these people are hired as trainers*. i was just getting my workout started, i see some middle-aged woman come in with one of the trainers, he then says "do the line of machines labeled 1 through 9, 12 reps each, record the weight for each machine" nice personalized workout plan there. Now, most of them (i assume) at least know what they're talking about... but i see them teaching behind the head lat pull-downs all the time, which just makes me cringe.

EDIT** to answer your question, if i were to not sign up for a gym for the summer... i would probably find a local jungle-gym and take it over with a few friends... there are so many things you can do on them! just gotta either watch youtube videos, or be creative. (not joking)

Why don't you try P90X, all you need is a pull up bar and some dumbbells, I substituted a pole for a pull up bar lol and the dumbbells weren't that expensive. It's a pretty good workout and works out all muscle groups and has a fair bit of cardio. If you want intense cardio or don't want to spend any money on equipment, try the Insanity workout.

This is a great idea. It's quite easy to switch stuff in and out with it. Its hard to do but it will get you in great shape
