A word of caution and a Happy New Years from a very old time member
Hey all, happy New Years to all. I last checked my MFP news feed some time ago and the months since my streak was 1400 days are fading further into history.

What do you look for in a gym and why? What makes a gym worth it for you? Gym feature chat!
I spend almost as much time in one gym or another as I do lurking around the MFP forums making a pest of myself and replying to one discussion or another.. all about dem cat memes!!!
