Local Gyms Outpace the National Chains - Well - Tara Parker-Pope - Health - New York Times Blog
I know I was! I still miss my local gym -- I worked out there for years and really enjoyed them. Used their personal trainers, etc. Since they closed I built a home gym. I've never really been happy at any of the chain gyms, even those that specialized in women.
The gyms at Texas Instruments was great too. A benefit I really miss.
