Well, Maybe its due to the sheer volume. The 24 hour fitness which I work out at gets over 3000 members in/out a day.

But other people have said sportsclub LA has the same problem which has less members who pay like $200 a month to be a member.

The original post is why do the machines need so much maintenance? I think it's because everyone's posture and muscle balance is so off it wrecks the machines...
