This kind of depends on where you live.. DTJC Club Metro in Newport is not bad at all. Would love to try BASE but don't think its worth the money considering I either work out in my apartment gym or club metro.

If willing to travel, you can sign up for classpass and try different gym, classes, workouts.

World Boxing Gym is one of the cheapest around, pretty big and has good hours, can be busy sometimes but usually nothing crazy. If you sign up for 6 months it’s $60 a month. Imo it’s great for the price and has everything you need.

Base is the one true option in the area that I can walk to and it’s a shit show. Always overcrowded, poorly trained staff and price is high for what you get. I’ve written emails to Equinox and Lifetime fitness begging them to open up a gym here.

Actually not as close as the proposed one right next door to one that got shot down. But a mere few blocks away, from the shot down one, which makes all the cries of it getting turned down all the more dramatic and ridiculous. Yes, the dispensary right next door to the Daycare got shot down, but there will be several more within walking distance from it. 🤦

Sorry, but there's no need for a dispensary on every corner of a residential neighborhood and certainly not next to schools or daycares. You'll just have to stretch your poor legs and walk 2 or 3 blocks more. 🤷‍♂️

Anyone not wanting to help with something that is the primary thing their organization is in charge of.... should be fired. NJ Transit not wanting to help with transit projects? Replace them. PA not wanting to help with PATH expansion? Fire 'em. Replace them with a new organization, especially one that's accountable to elected officials.
