Equinox all access or destination is a game changer if you go all over Manhattan and actually use it. I’ve never used a lifetime but if they don’t have the same breadth of locations that would be a big con for me.

Equinox is more of a status symbol

really depends on where you live and work imo. i have an equinox all access membership, which contrarily does not give me access to ALL locations, but enough that i can go to a variety of classes and work out at locations near work and home

I love lifetime. And it’s cheaper.

Lifetime sucks. There’s a reason they need to offer monthly memberships

Depends on the location. I'm an Equinox guy but Lifetime Dumbo is amazing!

I'd focus on your needs more than a specific brand. If you need convenience, see which one is the most convenient for you. If you are not like a 'pretty serious' lifter and are more into zumba or HIIT classes then see which one offers the ones you like. It's not a life commitment

I genuinely think I’m on the brink of quitting. Nope, I have no exit plan, no job searches started, not even an updated resume. But I do have three 4:00 AM-ers in the last 8 days, partners telling me to *increase* my hours, and anxiety that’s so high I can barely eat or sleep. My body is physically breaking down from a year of high stress and I’ve been on the brink of a panic attack for the last four days. I don’t want to do anything stupid, but I don’t know how much longer I can last. Thoughts?

Experience sharing on calories deficit -
I have a normal body build but want to lose a few pounds(especially around my belly). I am making visible progress now by eating less(work gets busy and I use that to forget about hunger), a lot of walking, have casein protein to feel less hungry. Diet is really what do the trick.
But there are drawbacks too - my energy level(especially around night time) drop significantly that the level of exercise I used to do feels hard (light/mid intensity)

Should I rejoin Equinox? Background: I cancelled my equinox membership because I wanted to try out different gyms. After about a month and a half, I’ve determined I really miss Equinox. It’s kind of expensive ($250 per month, but only an extra $130 over an average local gym). I like saving money but my health has definitely taken a dive because working out is not as enjoyable. Am I crazy?

Got the rent negotiated to under 3k + free amenities for a year (gym, pool, etc.). I’m afraid rent will atleast go back to the original price (+5%) and then some. The building has some sort of rent control but that’s predicted to go away in less than 1 year as per the lease. The legal rent limit is way higher.

Would love some perspective on renewal experience after 1 year. TIA.
