Working out is important but where do you go and workout when you live in New York? Many places charge you a crazy amount to workout. I know friends that pay $80 per month to workout at NYSC and I think it is a lot but the craziest is Equinox, you have pay around $ 200 per month but you get what you pay for. I on the other hand found a place on 25st and between 9thand 10th avenue, where you pay $75 for 6 months. This place got a pool, a basketball court, weight room, cardio room, Ping-Pong tables and pool table. It’s called a recreation center and they are located everywhere in the 5 boroughs so you can use your membership everywhere without paying any extra fees.
My thoughts about this place are that for $75 it is a pretty good place because it gives you what you need and nothing more or less. I need this place so I can do basketball exercise, swim and lift weights under the same roof. But do not expect any luxury here, you get what you pay for and if you are used to the fancy gyms then maybe this place is not for you but if you are a hardcore gym freak that only keep your focus on workingout and nothing else then this place is for you.
