Rip-off Report 24 Hr Fitness 
   A man joined about a year and a half ago. He knew at the time He'd be leaving Los Angeles within the next couple of years and He asked them what would happened if He moved somewhere that didn't have a location. They were told that he would have a prorated refund based on the time spent within the 3 year membership.

He paid $900 and they are refunding him $164. Does that sound prorated to you?

   They are claiming that he paid $249 for a personal trainer. The personal trainer was a bonus (FREE as explained to him) when he joined. But they are claiming that he opted for the trainer. He didn't even use all the sessions! He

New Happenings this Week
A recent study showed that the classic sit-up is not the best exercise for stronger, flatter abdominals. This exercise generally involves the hip muscles instead of the abdominals, and in most cases, places an unnecessary amount of strain on the lower back.

Hot Fitness Tip of the Week
Carbohydrate is the predominant energy source for strength training. Stored as glycogen in the muscles, it is the fuel used to supply energy for short, intense bursts of power. The harder and longer you work out, the more glycogen your muscles require. Once these stores of glycogen are gone your energy level will drop and you will run out of fuel to power muscle contractions. For this reason, athletes doing strength training exercise in the hopes of building lean muscle need to have an adequate carbohydrates intake. Experts recommend at least 500 to 600 grams of carbohydrate per day to keep your muscle glycogen stores high. You can base your personal requirement on the following formula: 3.6gr carb x body wt(lbs)= grams carb/day
Words of Inspiration
Stay Focused: Living with purpose and clear focus helps you to understand the value of being meaningfully focused. And aimlessly wandering with no clear focus can also help you to appreciate the power of a positive purpose. Either way, life leads you surely, steadily toward your purpose. Whether you experience the pain of losing touch with that purpose, or the joy of living in harmony with it, you grow in understanding and appreciation. No day, no experience, no encounter is really wasted. Through the ups and downs, in the good times and in times of despair, you feel more intensely the longing to express who you truly are. The beauty of this day is not in its particulars. The beauty is that you can take it all in, whatever and however it may be, and add it to the substance of your being. Whatever comes along, be thankful for the opportunity to pass through it. Whatever is, go with it and grow with it. Your purpose cannot help but become stronger, as each moment passes. Feel that strength, and live it more fully, more authentically, day after day.

Article of the Week
Time to get your abs ready for Summer: Abs are your body's center of power and provide core strength. Strong abs aid balance, help prevent lower back injuries and promote good posture. Consistent abdominal workouts (10-15 min, 4-5x per week) performed correctly are not just for physical well being, but for aesthetics too. The secret to developing great abs lies in treating your body as a complete unit. Don't make the mistake doing hundreds of repetitions of abdominal exercises in the hope of getting a flat abdominal region. A recent study showed that the classic sit-up is not the best exercise for stronger, flatter abdominals. This exercise generally involves the hip muscles instead of the abdominals, and in most cases, places an unnecessary amount of strain on the lower back. Instead, the 'crunch' is the best option. The top abdominal exercises are: Bicycle maneuver: Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor., Place your fingers on the side of your head just behind your ears., Push your lower back into the floor flattening the arch and hold., Bring your knees up to about a 45-degree angle and slowly go through a bicycle pedal motion., Touch your left elbow to your right knee, then your right elbow to your left knee in a slow and controlled manner and with full extension of each leg on every repetition., Breath evenly throughout the exercise., Perform 20-30 repetitions (up to three sets).

wanted a membership, NOT a trainer but was told that it was a free bonus and what he paid the $900 was for a 3 year membership.

    Look at ALL the negative feedback for 24 hour fitness. People have gotten ripped off, lied to and misled by 24 Hr Fitness. Had he done his research, He would've NEVER joined. Do not make the same mistake as him.
