If you are secretly glad that you "can't afford" a gym membership and are tragically forced to abandon your workout regimen until you get a promotion/job/winning lottery ticket, I have bad news.
The NYC Parks and Recreation Department has locations all over the city with full recreation centers - that means weight room, cardio equipment, basketball courts, and swimming pool.
The price of membership is....wait for it.... seventy-five dollars.
For the year.
The quality of the Rec centers varies (midtown manhattan location is much nicer than the south bronx....go figure!) but most are decent, and some are equal to NYC Sports Club gyms.
Just go to the Parks and Rec site to find the center nearest to you, and bring an ID, proof of address and a check for $75 when you sign up. The membership is good for all centers in the five boroughs no matter where you sign up
No excuses, my little recessionists!
noooo, I might actually exercise now! there goes my lazy life-style.
