I think that's part of the point - one of the groups they're trying to appeal to are those who don't have clue one about how many times they should do something or how heavy of weights. And there are people who, quite frankly, are completely bored by analyzing what's best for your body, etc etc, they just want to get a workout. I would have to include myself in that category....the last time I thought about joining a gym, the guy I talked to explained how he was going to "train" me and this and that which of course added to the price. I just wanted to take some aerobics classes and swim, for crying out loud.
So, while it's not for everyone, for some people it's probably the difference between exercising and not doing anything at all. I know a few of the 50+ ladies I work with go there.
