Hope you still feel all warm & fuzzy now that you're supporting this corporation which will probably soon discover favorable enough demographics to open a Soul Cycle (also owned by Equinox) in your favorite mom & pop's current location.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-31911032048522394722015-09-30T11:28:59.598-04:002015-09-30T11:28:59.598-04:00I agree with some of the commenters.

I refuse to give my money to NYSC, Crunch, Equinox or Crunch, all of whom are over run with greedy membership advisors who lock you down in impossible contracts with trainers who are one you like white on rice. F them. I would rather give my $25 to Blink. This will definitely change the neighborhood, but in a good way.

Gym freaks have feelings too dammit. We don't all grunt and scream and we actually don't care about how much or how little weight you happen to be lifting or that you're a newbie or whatever. Screw this place. I got a good thing going with my ex-con lifting buddies up at Asser Levy gym.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-77319431573748589662015-09-28T16:07:12.572-04:002015-09-28T16:07:12.572-04:00I welcome this bit of gentrification.

I live two blocks away from A and 7. This would be an awesome incentive to join since it is so close. I also think this neighborhood needs at least another gym. Fingers crossed.
