Letting someone use my LAFitness membership....?

Question

I will be out of town for 2 months and would rather not cancel or postpone my gym membership. If I let a girl friend who cannot afford a gym membership use my membership will anyone notice? (Is a picture of me visible on the computer screen when I scan in?) Thanks!

Answer 1

It would depend on if you frequently visit the fitness center and if the staff would recognize your friend not being you.  The scanner only checks the status of your membership and records the visit. All people coming in and leaving the center are videotaped.  If anything happens to come up while your friend is using your card, it could turn in to a problem for you.  It's your call if you want to take a chance;  personally, I wouldn't do it.  Lately my local fitness center has been checking everyone coming in to the building for security purposes.
