There's a gym near you with six thousand members, three hundred lockers, forty treadmills, and one squat rack, and nobody who runs it is worried about that math.
Let's take a walk through why.

In this video, we walk through the actual business model behind low-cost gyms: breakage, the eighty-percent drop-off, why the contract is built to trap you, why the equipment ratio looks the way it does, and why free pizza night isn't a mistake, it's marketing. Then we walk into a completely different kind of gym, one that panics every time you skip a class, to show you the two opposite bets the fitness industry is built on.

By the end, you'll know exactly how to spot which kind of gym you've signed up for, before you sign anything.
