I agree in some circumstances but I've seen really nice hotels with horrible gyms and 'cheaper hotels' with gyms better than some fitness clubs. It will be to watch the reviews come in and see if a good gym really does correspond to the hotel start rating. If you have any fresh hotel gym experiences, please write a review.<br /><br />Thanks!Matthiashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13543203283504882733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897774470372565730.post-58459716137567070822009-10-29T11:44:04.447-07:002009-10-29T11:44:04.447-07:00Matthias,

Most of the average price-range hotels have your garden-variety carido equipment and the kitten-sized, colored dumb bells. Machines are uncommon and of questionable quality. <br /><br />But there are exceptions. Thanks for the link.Justin_PShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07819478474074071804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897774470372565730.post-60962021266951148072009-10-23T06:11:45.409-07:002009-10-23T06:11:45.409-07:00I use to make similar comments like yours, particu...I use to make similar comments like yours, particularly when I saw a fat person jogging. I'd snicker privately at them and their pathetic effort while their fat bounced up and down.<br /><br />But now I privately give them an attaboy or attagirl for their effort because I know, that something is better than nothing. Fitness is for everyone including those who just want a sprinkle of it and are not like us who want a storm.<br /><br />Enjoy your stay at the Hilton and wear a pair of sunglasses at all times so you can enjoy the eye candy without getting slapped in the face by your Boss (spouse) for having wandering eyes.Pierini Fitnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16489699354449195198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897774470372565730.post-70551021814599833612009-10-23T05:49:03.491-07:002009-10-23T05:49:03.491-07:00I sometimes get the same feeling, specially when p...I sometimes get the same feeling, specially when people cringe when I describe some exercises or workouts I do. I sometimes think the whole world developed an aversion to effort and discomfort which will hurt us in the long run, not only in our fitness efforts but in our work and other endeavors.<br /><br />I've always noticed that all the intense, no-nonsense exercise sites on the internet (Crossfit, Starting Strength, Ross Training, your own website) are quite "underground" in their approach. While I have a soft spot for this, I sometimes feel that the exercise community needs a more popular, Oprah-like character who advocated lifting heavy stuff, doing sprints, etc on prime-time TV. Well, we can always hope...Barnanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897774470372565730.post-70771833258608308662009-10-22T16:39:35.413-07:002009-10-22T16:39:35.413-07:00Hi Justin
