I was a member of female fitness in robinson until it closed. It was small, all female, no tvs and tanning! I tried extreme fitness & contours. Xtreme was too X for me, contours was nice with friendly people but I love treadmills & bikes! Anyone know of another gym?

What can I do next?

Hey D.
Its me S.,I can suggest Platnum Fitness on noblestown Rd
in Greentree. They offer classes and trainers (pretty reasonable) and tanning. Its not very far from where you live.I know the owner Bob (very nice to look at) check it out and if you go I may start back again!

I don't know where you are located but I belong to Fitness 19 and I love it! It isn't just for women but it is comftorable. They have all the cardio machines, free weights, a few kinds of weight machines, for novice lifters(like me) and extreme lifters. They have a daycare for a low price that my girls love and they membership is month to month and only $20! My husband belongs also. I know there is one in North hills on Mcknight Rd and I believe there is another one in South hills somewhere. Good luck!

I am assuming you are from the Robinson area, there is a gym im Kennedy-the same shopping center as the Giant Eagle, near Ohio Valley Hospital-I can't remember the name. My husband belongs there, and is trying to get me to go. It is small has the whole set up, plus a circuit set up. I belong to Curves and do the circuit, but he says I can do that plus more there. I am almost positive he said they have babysitting. I THINK the name is Streamline Fitness.
Good Luck!

Try Jazzercise. You can find a place near you by going on the web at www.Jazzercise.com You can also learn more about Jazzercise at the sight. I have never had a guy in my class. I am 46 and started 2 years ago. It is great mentally and physically. You soon build up your endurance and stength--you use weights for strength training. They use lots of great music to work-out to. Most places have free babysitting or a very low cost. There are locations in Butler, Mars, Marshall and the North Hills etc. I use to run on my Precor treadmill but I get a better workout and relieve more stress by going to Jazzercise. There are no mirrors and the instructor faces you so it is easy to get the moves. A very positive and upbeat organization. Good Luck! C., Married with 3 boys -5,8,10.
