Gyms can be cheaper than you THINK
And sometimes the…read moreemployees look like N'SYNC
And lots of the patrons are covered in INK
And when Barbi comes here, she only wears PINK
Don't work out when you've had too much to DRINK
(looking at you Aly)
And don't think I didn't hear your wine glass CLINK
And w're no longer friends if you ever wear MINK
Unless you're like, insanely super hot, wink WINK
In which case, I'm okay with any given KINK
And thinking about it has got me on the BRINK
It's driving me crazy, I might need a SHRINK
And unlike the Titanic, my libido won't SINK
But I'm in my element here, like ZINC
Even though my form, it's true, can STINK
You should sign up, I can send you a LINK
Cause no other gym is better than BLINK!
WHAT
This is the best gym chain in the country at the moment. I don't do classes and I don't do swimming cuz it messes up my hair, and sorry but Barbi doesn't like when my hair gets messed up. So what I want to do is lift weights and do cardio, so if that's the basic stuff you want to do, then this is absolutely the gym for you.
This is a wonderful location of Blink Fitness which I use sometimes twice a week. It has a lot of weight equipment that I need, and probably more equipment in total than any of the other locations in HTX. It has a pretty decent temperature for lifting for the most part, and the showers are usually hot, which is not always the case at the other locations. However, they were shut down for awhile at one point.
It's perfectly situated right off I-45 and close to some of the best Mexican and Latin food in Houston. It's serving a community which really needs this kind of amazing low-price gym. So it has a lot of things going for it.
It's where it needs to be on Airline in an area which doesn't have a lot of good gyms. The amazing Mexican food around here is a problem for me because I end up gaining more weight than I lose when I come up to this part of town. We get along with the employee with the multicolored hair and the branch manager is a gem and definitely does a great job.
The building does have a few problems like with power going out during storms and bathroom issues and shower issues but generally speaking it's one of the better locations and one which I use quite often, and the clientele is energetic and young, and a lot of very good-looking people come to work out here which is cool. Especially my girlfriend. Overall it's my second fave Blink location in HTX probably.
One time there were construction workers being lewd towards female members as they exited, and the manager ran right out and sorted it out - I thought that was brave and chivalrous, proactive and also very professional of him.
On the negative side, the first time we worked out here, I went to shower at 6.45pm for a 7pm close. Then at about 6.52 when I was naked in the shower, the very young, much less friendly employee came into the showers, *stuck his head in* to where I was naked and showering, and told him, you have to leave, we're closed. I found it to be such an ugly, one-star-rating, never-coming-back incident, that it took a good 6 months before I ever returned. Since then, they have a new manager who is much better, and I met the regional manager from Chicago here too, and she was telling me how much they've cleaned up their act... I'm assuming she was referring to incidents and behaviour such as that.
I know a lot of people that use the other locations that discovered this location and started coming over here. I'm always looking forward to coming to this location. One of the things I like here is that the manager is pretty awesome and they have some cool employees, and one of my favourite girls who works at one of the other locations comes here to work out. I would say that of all the locations, the best-looking people come to this one. I'm not sure why but sometimes it feels like being in a music video here. I'm not sure if I'm the star of the video or just an extra but let's just say that a lot of the people that work out here are extra. Anyway sorry for the extra information.
So hurry up. Blink... or you'll miss it.
