So many single people sick of meeting sub-par men at bars turn to online dating websites in the hope of finding someone decent. But for those who prefer a more traditional route, 24 Hour Fitness is a better bet. Presumably a man with a gym membership has a stable enough income to pay the associated monthly fees, cares about his health, and, if he goes often enough, has discipline and a good work ethic—all important factors to consider in a potential partner. And, on a superficial level, it’s far easier to check out what a guy’s body really looks like when he swaps his street clothes for workout gear and leans over a cycling machine.
