I noticed the following question in a health and fitness quiz:
Which best describes your exercise program?
a) both weight training and aerobic exercise
b) either weight training or aerobic exercise
c) none
I think the 3rd option should have been “c) neither”, and “none” seems wrong to me. What do you think?
I see where you’re coming from and why you prefer “neither.” But I think they didn’t use “neither” because it is singular, and a & b contain two items so cannot be referred to as singular. I think c should have been “no exercise.”

I’m an excellent fitness trainer and yet it is hard for me to get new clients. Advertising does not even help. Anyone have suggestions? I live in Missouri where there are 2 gyms in myhome town and a hundred fitness trainer doing what I am doing.
Tried phone book ads, newspapers, what else is there now?
Work for one of the local gyms as a personal trainer.. This way you are guarenteed to get more business..
Anyone out there have experience with financial plans for a start up business?
I want to start a fitness center business need help with the financial plan: email- mrvandal13@yahoo.com
It might be a good idea to consult with someone who is already in the business with whom you will not be a competitor. See what is involved, the space required, the commitment for equipment, the number of members needed to break even, the resignation rate and the area from which to find replacements. My friend has a very successful fitness center and recently started another so as to protect the lower part of his market. That facility is nearly breaking even, but the property he purchased is desirable and is designated for unrestricted commercial use.
