Challenges
Will The Alaska Club offer fair membership options?
Physical exercise is essential for many of us who commute to office jobs in cars. Health clubs typically require year-long memberships, even if one is not able to use the facilities during much of that period. The appearance is that clubs are using their control of the market to unfairly extract money from customers.
Why do health clubs offer such poor membership choices for customers? Are they willing to offer memberships that would serve the needs of those who cannot make a commitment to using the clubs continually for an entire year--for instance, with monthly memberships, or punch cards able to be used a certain number of times?
