“You know, I don't know what it seems like there's a variety of machinery. Tell me about pre-core life fitness in terms of price point because I can't go through each one of them. Right. Is pre-core more expensive? I mean, you can buy anything. Right, right. Is pre-core more expensive?”

“Glenn, just an add-on. They have an... maroon creek and a lot of clubs they just add that cybex machine you know that for shoulder and you do multiple things i think it's like a ten thousand dollar machine i don't know what the cost is do you have that cybex machine in this yes yeah we did functional trainers as well as the multi-stack so you've got one that's got four stations It's all the way in the right-hand corner towards the tennis courts.

“The only trouble, and I'd like to read this to you because this is what I thought would happen. If we go with Life Fitness, you will only provide Life Fitness equipment, correct?”

“Okay. So in a perfect world, if you want to read this, Pre-core is smoother, more ergonomic, and joint-friendly. I'm just doing pre-core and life fitness because I think they're the top. Okay? Life fitness, heavier-duty, strength-focused, gym-hardcore. So in a perfect gym, they go with pre-core with the machinery, and they go with life fitness with the machinery.”

“But for the elliptical and for the other thing, it's basically more joint-friendly and more smoother. And that's the only thing. You know... Pre-core for the... You're not going to go wrong with life fitness. I know the machinery. You know the machinery. You know, picking and choosing whatever. The only thing is, if you wanted pre-core as an adjunct for your cardio... As the town manager mentioned...”

“It might be a 10%, 20% difference in ergonomics, in smooth ability. I think what we're looking at is longevity and not breaking down. And I think life fitness is going to probably fulfill that. I think if you go with three, I don't know the star tech. Star tech, I know how to bite.”

“And I'm a little uncomfortable with that. I think the monitors are important on a lot of these machines.”

“And that would, you know... Most successful gyms use both brands together. Pre-court, cardio, floor, general use. Strength, floor, and serious trainer. But if you go with Life Fitness, you're going to be... Well, let me give the scenario under the Life Fitness, right?”

“The same thing. The demographics of the population, you know, I don't want to look at myself as that person. What do you foresee the people using the gym?”

“And that's also an aspect of the selection process, I think. If we were going to have an older population primarily using this, then I'd say we may want to look to maybe a little different type of equipment. If it's going to be on the younger age, 35 to 50, or active people like Ken and Glenn that work out frequently until they break a joint or two, they're going to probably want the life fitness, although pre-core Also, some of that stuff with the cables that she was showing, I couldn't really, it's hard to see that machine in my brain. So I'm leaning towards the Life Fitness.”

“The only thing I want the cable is the pull and the pull down. And you want these cables. And they have that in the middle machine.”

“Town manager, quick question. Yes, sir. And maybe other people picked this up. Although they talked about warranties, there was another catch-all with preventative maintenance. Like a monthly thing where they come in.”

“Yeah, Life Fitness. The fee is, I mean, we just got to realize that.”

“Are we understanding correctly, though, if we happen to have asked Liv to go buy the life fitness equipment, it would cost more...”

“Quick question. Yes. When we get down to the bottom line of selecting equipment.”
