I always though the phrase "that's easier said than done" is silly because nearly everything is easier said than done

Last time I was in the US about a year ago, a Gold’s membership was like $25 a month for the basic tier (which still gets you full entry, you’re just restricted to a single location). Idk where you’re looking but most gyms are pretty affordable unless you’re getting scammed into hiring a personal trainer

But you have to climb Kilimanjaro and send a fax from there to the unlisted head office with a 500 character key they can't tell you, then cure cancer to cancel your membership.

God damn if im paying $25 a month for a gym they better be moving the weights for me

Not a bad deal considering the equipment provided. I’d love a home gym but just a power rack, a bench, a bar, and weights would be well over $1500 used. That’s not even including cardio equipment, a pulley system, or dumbbells which you’ll find in any reputable gym
