Looking to get my husband a gym membership. Can anyone recommend one? I work out at work now that we have a gym and thought this would be a nice for him as well.

Thank you in advance.

    I'd look for a gym that is close to his job or home ?

    First off, does he want one?

    If that is yes, close to home or work is important. What fitness activities does he like?

    He's mentioned that he needs to work on some things. I think it would be a motivator for him. I would do a month to month for him, say maybe 4-6 months.
    There is Cardinal not too far away and thought it would be convenient and it star mets $10/month.
    He works FT,school 1 day a week, homework, house remodel and a toddler. Nice straw reliever.

    There are some Cardinal gyms in some surrounding communities and my brother in law was a member recently. Those are probably a pretty decent "starter" gym. I'd make sure you don't get stuck with a long term contract. I'd look at it first though, we had one and it was pretty run down and closed.

    Good luck.

    Thank you. :)
    Once my husband leaves I can make a phone call and ask twenty questions.
