A few of my gyms closed down in the past too. I live in the relative sticks, so they were always mom and pop gyms. Never did like the high end gyms like nysc since alot of the amenities i wouldn't use (pool, sauna, towel service, etc). Currently go to a small chain 'snap' fitness....card access 24/7 which is kind of nice. They are popping up all over now due to low overhead and cost of the franchise. They are on the smaller side but i go later in the evening to avoid the mass of people. Since their individually owned and due to liability, some don't have standard squat or barbell flat benches and rely on smith machines or dumbell/nautilus machines but i've seen them go either way.
