The Best Gyms in America for Every Workout

Sports-Minded Clubs: Best for Urban Athletes: The Sports Center at Chelsea Piers

New York City (chelseapiers.com/sc)
Starting at $158 for a monthly membership

The stadium-size Sports Center at Chelsea Piers is equal parts playground and athlete's escape, with a regulation-size boxing ring, a sand volleyball court, a quarter-mile indoor track, a rock-climbing wall, three basketball courts, a sports-drills center, and a 25-yard indoor swimming pool. Not to mention a 14,000-square-foot weight-lifting deck. There's a full group fitness schedule, and members can sign up for triathlon-training clinics or meet with sports-specific trainers. Other perks: a spa and a cafe. "Once you're inside, you forget that you're in the middle of Manhattan. There are glass windows everywhere, so you're always looking at the Hudson River," member Ann Marie Delaney says.

Bring in a copy of the April issue of FITNESS by April 30 to receive 1 month free when you sign up for a membership at Chelsea Piers
