I’m a 3 min walk from Vida and 10 min from Equinox, much more likely to do Vida but am I missing out something significant?

What do you mean? Like, it turns out there's the magical machine at equinox that is going to make you look like Megan fox? And every machine at vida makes you look like Roseanne?

Lol

no matter what they say online, I bet you can get a free week or two. Try both. (I used to work at a gym and could do this easily).

I"m a straight woman and love looking at the very gay, very good looking men at my gym.

I am just there to get my workout in and leave.

When I used to go to VIDA, no matter the location, I felt it was very much a see and be seen kind of vibe. Like, I pay this much a month and I'm going to wear a cute outfit and barely sweat. Some of the class instructors also gave a vibe that they were too cool for school. Only reason I joined was b/c when I moved it was the only gym close to my apt.

OP, ask if they'll give you a free pass to try out the gym for a few days and check out each location. Go at times when you'd normally be there to see how crowded it gets. One may be more crowded and would you want to have to wait for a machine or go there even earlier to grab a spot in the class? Are the classes you want to go to are offered at times you can go?

You'll figure out if one feels like a better fit. And if both are equal, then I would choose the one closest to my house.

Depends on the Equinox location. They are not made equally. The West End one's showers look like a 1980's bath house... but they function.

Just depends on your location TBH. Equinox is more expensive. Vida has the rooftop pool.

Anyone done both? How do they compare?
