The word gymnasium derives from the Greek γυμνός (naked), which is how the ancient Greeks preferred to ellipticize and the reason many Americans subconsciously avoid the gym. Today's Groupon gives new customers all the benefits of the gym without much of the nudity: for $29, new members get a two-month membership, with a waived enrollment fee, at Snap Fitness, a $90 value for the two-month membership. This Groupon is valid at your choice of two Snap Fitness locations in Jacksonville.

A two-month membership at Snap Fitness gets you access to the gym's state-of-the-art equipment during the staffed hours. A 24-hour access card can be purchased for a discounted price of $20 (normally $35), giving cardholders all-hour facility access. Even if you choose to exercise only during conventional hours, Snap's friendly, unintimidating atmosphere will provide a refreshing change of pace from any meat-market gym or tough elementary schoolyard you've experienced.

Newly available at Snap Fitness for its members is Deranged, a workout program aimed at reducing 1,000 calories to smoldering ash every class. Deranged's instructors lead participants through a high-intensity, weights-free workout of aerobic and anaerobic movements, aimed at quickly evicting any unwanted excess. Get your Groupon to enjoy two months of metabolism-motivating madness at Snap Fitness.

Reviews

Reviewers are too busy working out at the two Jacksonville locations to write reviews, but three Citysearchers give the Snap Fitness in North Miami Beach 4.5 stars:

• I have become obsessed with the convenience that Snap Fitness offers... as one who is always traveling with work and working late hours, Snap lets me come whenever I want with its 24/7, self-operating gym. – bucspg3, Citysearch
