Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

If you've ever found yourself traveling and ended up in a hotel "fitness center" with one treadmill and a semifunctioning multistation exercise machine, you'll understand the purpose of this book, subtitled "Where to Work Out When You're on the Road." This guide is so comprehensive it even, in some cases, tells you how heavy you can go with the iron in a hotel gym. (A hotel may boast that it has "free weights" when the dumbbells only go up to 20 pounds.) Best of all, though, it points you to good gyms in 45 U.S. cities at which you can pay a day rate to work out.

This book is even more comprehensive than I thought it would be! There are not only listings for tons of cities but detailed descriptions, too. Very readable and reader-friendly (love the logos that show what each place has - even hairspray!) Now I have ABSOLUTELY no excuse not to work out when I'm on the road
