Editorial Review for 24 Hour Fitness – by Saira Masood
In Short
With classes ranging from 24 Hour Tease, a sexy strip aerobic class, to the more subdued Vinyasa flow yoga and butt-kickin' boot camp, this active sports club is packed with health conscious (and some insomniac) gym goers. Stocked with the latest cardio and weight-training equipment, this gym cranks up the pumping music, flicks on the Plasma TV sets, and lets fitness fanatics work out according to their own schedule. With affordable rates and a friendly, knowledgeable staff, personal training is another tangible get-fit option. And while the moniker is somewhat misleading, on most days the door is open for at least nineteen hours--not too shabby.

I'm not sure what the fuss is all about. I visited this gym tonight as I'm in Seattle on business. This 24 hour fitness is very nice. It's pretty big (3 floors), lots of equipment, and the mood is decent. There arent a ton of meat heads hogging the equipment, I didnt meet any pushy salespeople, and there were a minimal amount of weirdos (every gym has them). The equipment is fairly new and everything seems to be in working order. There is even a small lap pool and jacuzzi. Sure there are more elegant gyms around (Equinox), but come on...they are $300+/mo. For the price point, this is a great place.

There seems to be a lot of fuss about pushy salespeople and the meat market atmosphere. I've been going there now for about two months and have yet to experience any of this. I did a 30 min intro with a trainer when I first started, and of course he dosen't get paid unless he trains people, so naturally he asked if I wanted his services. I declined polietly and that was that. Simple and easy. Since then I go 24 hours a day (since I work from home and keep odd hours this is HUGE for me). And I enjoy it. I like watching Law and Order while working out there. The weight room has a nice variety and everything seems clean to me. I almost wonder if people who find the sales/training staff pushy are just those types of people that feel bad for saying 'no'. I didnt want personal help so I said so, no guilt, no push...that was that. If you hesitate and do the classic American "well..ya know...um...i dont really think..." then of course they'll try to persuade you. But that seems to me to be the fault of someone being unclear. The locker rooms are clean, the showers have great water pressure, the music (while a little emo for my taste) is fine. Plus I have my mp3 player, and often plug the headset into the doodad attached to the machine and watch the television. They have lots of machines, cardio and otherwise. Even when it's packed I rarley wait more then 3 minutes to get on one. This is not a state-of-the-art type of gym, but for working out I dont really see how you can go wrong.
Pros: lots of machines, good location, relaxed atmosphere
Cons: can be hot at times
