thank you sports freak for your reply..i went to the office this morning and talked to them, yeah that cost is after the discount...real cost is $55 per month...im in houston. im looking for more options like fitness connection and 24 hrs fitness...but they are not so close...this one will save some time...and i will think about the personal training...if i understand from the net what i need to do then i will not choose it...thank you once again
