Ah, I remember going the U of C gym on Sundays, and being one of three people in there. How times have changed.

You should see the ladies in the class....it's unbelievable. I'm not sure if I agree with their "2500 calorie" claim (maybe it was 1500, I wasn't really listening to the instructor....my head was elsewhwere) but the results are undeniable. I've watched girls in that class go from "big boned" to insanely hot in a matter of months doing it 3 days a week, and watching what they eat.

There are private lockers at Talisman as well ($300/yr I think) if you want to get away from the smell of poo and screaming children in the public areas. Well worth it.

I looked up MRC and it's 399/yr. Not bad.

They should.

"No more poo smelling lockers! No more petty theft! No more community showers that don't work! No more screaming children!"

The be honest, public gyms really creep me out. People's asses rubbing against machines, sweat and other bodily fluids being left on surfaces. And then there are the showers, barf.
