I'm a member of 24 Hour Fitness. I looked at LA Fitness and Bally and Anytime and they all were okay but LA was very much into the already skinny people... Bally was dirty and dark, it reminded me of a gym from the 70s where people actually go there to have sex in the hot tubs. Anytime was just too far away for me to even attempt to try.
I really have liked my 24 hour fitness place thus far. They've been really good about personal training, helping you if you don't know how to work a machine, etc. It's always clean too. I go during the late morning, so there are other people there who are like me, bigger and not looking for a hook-up.
