Completely agree. Look at the major actual gym chains
Memberships plummeted and so did attendance yet they refused to budge pm prices. No reason a 24 or LA fitness membership should cost $80-90 a month for two people. it's treating fitness as a status symbol and a luxury instead of a NEED. Some people's light or gas bills aren't even $80.
I can understand a gym might not be NECESSARY but access to machines and free weights and a safe environment should be accessible to everyone.
But the libs would rather subsidize hormone replacement for trans or "green energy"
I cringe when I think of the McDonald play areas. Why can't those play areas be in every park in the inner cities - police patrolled if necessary to keep the kiddies safe?
I don't know about accessible to everyone. Everyone needs to get their butts off the sofa and go outside. Exercise is free. Walk, run play some ball. Bikes can be had secondhand for nearly nothing.
Gym chains are important to the people who live in their vehicles, of which there are an unknown number but enough to be everywhere, not for exercise but for showers. Planet Fitness used to be a real bargain at $15 a month.

Oh, I forgot. The police have been defunded.
Oh yes. And then there's that fat kid who gets stuck & farts in the tunnel slide as kids are screaming for mercy behind him with tears in their eyes.
ROFL...that sounded a little too close a story from personal experience, eh?

I haven't gone to the gym in ages since they require a mask.
