Out of where the handclasp's a littler stronger / Out where the smile dwells a little longer / That's where the West begins. -- From "Out Where the West Begins" by Arthur Chapman (the line "Where the West begins," was adopted by Mandan, North Dakota, as its city motto.)
This city of about 19,000 people, according to the 2010 U.S. Census, lies on the east bank of the Missouri River in the south central part of the state. Mandan prides itself on its small-town Western persona "where a man makes friends without half trying," and on its railroad past and its regional commerce, agribusiness, energy-related and oil-refining present. It's also just across the river from Bismarck, the state capital. See more
Apartment complexes with a gym offer a valuable amenity to Mandan renters looking to get fit and slash their gym membership. However, not all gyms are the same.
Make a list of your must-haves in a gym setting. Ask about the variety and age of any cardio machines. Also ask about any weight training equipment and free weights.
Consider the spaciousness of the workout area. Some apartment gyms are small. Those can create tension with tenants looking to squeeze in a workout before or after work.
If you enjoy circuit training, make sure there’s enough space to spread out and get in the workout you want.
Cleanliness is also crucial to an apartment gym experience. During your apartment tour, carefully inspect the fitness area to check for cleanliness and any extra perks. Also consider the potential savings if you can cancel a gym membership!
Towels, an attendant, flat-screen TVs, and a locked door for exclusive tenants access can all add value to your apartment gym experience.
