Ended up joining Gold's Gym. Their location on Babcock is a stone's throw from my apartments and has a nice full size basketball court.

Might switch next year depending on where wifey and I find a house, though.
The one on Callaghan or the one in the UTHSC? I have some friends that go to the UTHSC and we go play at the Golds there quite often. It's a much smaller Golds compared to the rest but it seems to be kept up better and have a little better clientele then some of the other ones I've been too. A lot of students use it so there's usually some decent games going but nothing crazy competition wise. I use to think it was only for UTHSC students but its a ruby level golds open to the public.

I go to the one on Callaghan/Babcock. It's slightly closer and I don't really need the ruby level amenities for the workouts/basketball sessions I usually do.

If you ever happen to "downgrade" and visit my Gold's one evening and see a black guy in Aggie gear pouring sweat, it's probably me lol.

Thought about that one since it's around the corner but I heard the classes were better (aka you could get into them) at the prue rd location. Going to sign up Monday. Been mostly sitting on my ass for two weeks and I feel like crap

Prue was actually the first location I tried (mainly beause I didn't realize there was one on Callaghan lol), but their customer service (for me) was kinda bad in that they never called me back to set up a meeting to become a member. Ended up going to the closer location instead for the reasons I said earlier, but will probably upgrade when wifey moves down here. She usually does the class workout sessions of the two of us.

The Prue location is nice, though. Wish we had towel service at mine. I sweat a lot :P

I bring like 3 towels and 2 shirts, no lie lol. It's annoying.

Maybe one of these days I'll join ya at Prue as a guest.

I need to get on this forum more now that I live here. If anyone is interested in checking out a new CrossFit gym, please check out Tobin Hill CrossFit. Opened in April and has a really, really cool thing going on. She is about 4 blocks west of the Pearl in the Tobin Hill historic district.
