Things You'll Need:
- a list of local gyms and health clubs.
- a checklist of things you want to find in a gym.
-
Step 1
Visit the gyms and healthclubs in your area. Take a good look at the facility. Is it clean? Do they keep the equipment in top shape? Do they offer towels and locks for the lockers?
-
Step 2
Talk to the trainers and staff of each facility. Are they personal? Do they take their job seriously? Are they professional? Ask to see their credentials. If they don't have any, or they have certifications you are unsure of, move to another facility. Ask if they are trained in CPR and first aid.
Get to know the staff first hand. Ask questions. -
Step 3
Look closely at their equipment. Is it new? Do they do regular maintenance checks? Find out when the last upgrade to their equipment was. Do they have video or security cameras?
-
Step 4
Do they offer classes? Many gyms and healthclubs will offer pilates, stretching, or other aerobics classes.
