As a personal trainer at one of the top Equinox gyms in a major US city I can relate to the Chelsea Piers gym. The main reason the memberships are on the 'higher end' is because the gym is meant for people to spend the day there, and even have work areas for the nomad/remote workers. Well worth it if you can afford it and fitness is a cornerstone in your life.

The worst gym doesn’t even compare to the first gym I went to. It had dark orange lights, plaster and drywall falling all over, each room was tiny and dark, some random spots of water on the floor but it had weights. Got the job done for a whopping $10 per month, unlimited use. They gave you a key. It definitely had character.

I used to frequent A rather old YMCA in Elmhurst, IL. The free weights were in a space in the basement shared with the boiler. A bench or two, squat rack, dumbbells, leg extensions you performed with iron "shoes" that used attached to the bottom of your actual shoes. It had character.

I know the "worst" gym although not that location. Since it's a franchise, the quality of the gym depends on the owner. The one in my city is the best gym I've ever been to, but then again the owner is really responsive. I actually left a five-star review once, mentioning how chill people were about sharing squat racks. He thanked me on the review, then again in person when I went to the gym, adding that they would be putting in new squat racks soon. Two weeks later, they were there. Management is everything. NYC pizza is weird. Locals like greasy and thin crust with cheese only. So that may have been the disconnect.

The only problem is if you work full time add an actual workplace it just doesn't seem plausible to pay $300 a month to work out at a gym. The planet fitness I go to I only pay $12 a month and it's actually pretty clean and they pretty much have everything you need there to build your body. I'm someone that doesn't need all that extra fancy crap since I won't be using most of it. The only thing I would rather spend a lot of money on is my car. Lmao.

I work out at a gym that looks like sh*t on the surface level, but they have lots of weights, high quality (although a bit old) machines and everyone including the staff is really nice and serious about working out. They're also open 24/7. I tried a fancy gym once but it was full of kale salads and elderly women. There were barely any wights and the machines were all digital. It felt more like a nursing home spa than a gym.

Omg, that "worst" gym reminds me a lot of my local gym in Sweden! I live in a very small village and I'm lucky to even have a gym nearby at all. It's also in a basement level with no windows and fans instead of air conditioning, cracked walls, oddly yellow machines, and I often have it all to myself. Also the price is very similar. Differences is the gym in my village is much smaller, and there's barely any space to walk or do standing dumbbell exercises, or heck even to warm up, between the racks and machines. Also... the men's locker room only has two showers very close to each other. So if you're not alone in there, it gets kinda awkward. It's not a bad gym, imo. It has everything I need, which isn't much.

I a lot of people in NYC are paying 650-700 a month for a closet barely big enough for a bed that doesn't even have its own bathroom. A gym like Chelsea has a bunch of people that spend most of their free time there outside of working out, and a ton of areas for them to just chill on their phone or laptop or hang out with friends. It ends up being a lot cheaper for many than having a full apartment in the area, and sometimes they even work out there a little.

Chelsea Piers gym is awesome; it's just hard to get to for most people in NYC. I used to live in Gramercy and rode the cross-town bus on 23rd to get there. Door-to-door was a good 30 minutes each way. So, while it pained me to cancel Chelsea Piers, I ended up going to Equinox, which was across the street from my apartment. For an everyday gym, I think a convenient location is more important than the quality of the gym.

I got you next time on the REAL NYC experience around the boroughs

That "bad gym" looked absolutely fine. Maybe the rumoured owner is guilty of the low star rating, and a lack of AC is certainly an issue in summer, but the gym honestly looked like a great "iron dungeon", well equipped and focused towards just training hard and getting home to recover. And the smoothie bar even had a sharply dressed bartender in it, despite not getting the flavor right. But that's probably just New York for you.

Will, there is a reason on the "bad" gym colors. According to some studies, the red yellow combination is good, happiness but also makes you wanna get out fast. Here is a description from an expert (not me xD) Looking at the positive psychology qualities of red & yellow in relation to the fast food industry, red triggers stimulation, appetite, hunger, it attracts attention. Yellow triggers the feelings of happiness and friendliness. When you combine red and yellow it’s about speed, quickness. In, eat and out again.

There's also downside of color-forced emotions, is that it causes the opposite reaction over time the more you look at it. There was a phenomenon back then where prisons would paint their cells pink because it was believed the color pink calms people down but overtime the body rejects it because it doesn't feel natural and ends up causing more anger.

2:37 It's a hex bar with built in racking position to add/remove weights. Topple it over for your lifts and then push it on the stands to add/remove plates. Going to the worst gym is one thing, but going to the worst pizza place another. Who knows what's going on with hygiene.

I live in NYC but in the South Bronx the Blink is $10 and the gym is super big clean and has a lot of machines. Downside is your across the street from the projects that means afternoon gym session means going through a block packed with people loud music and the occasionally catcalls who hang by the bodega. As long as you don’t go at night when the shootouts happens especially summer you good. It has two floors and thankfully doesn’t look like the second gym you went to.
