A little later in the early evening, I went to the nearest 24 Hour Fitness with the intention to sign-up for a month because I've been wanting access to the pool and steam room. This location has been historically rundown so hearing that it was recently renovated lured me in. I ended up waiting at the empty front desk for several minutes before I just took out my phone, signed-up for an online free pass, and then walked in. I bounced around from various machines as I came across them. all done for 3 sets of 10: machine lat pulldowns, cable tricep pressdowns, cable chest flyes, leg press, and cable curls.
I also had my bag gloves with me and did a light round on one of their punching bags. Finally, I did mostly 5 minutes (took some time to figure out how to adjust while I was using it) of max resistance on the elliptical machine.
This was all fine, but when I went to one section of the locker room I was hit with a smell so bad I just about turned away and walked out from there, while the bathroom was dirty and in disrepair (not the source of whatever that smell was, by the way). The steam room and jacuzzi also looked crowded so I actually did end up leaving then.
I'm now leaning toward forgetting the whole idea of a gym membership. The upsides are that it's cheap, using machines are fun, and it's just down the street from my boxing gym so I can kill time in the hour I have between work and boxing by using a massage chair or going for a swim, but that locker room was absolutely brutal.
