Amazing/horrible news for midtown nine-to-fivers and the Port Authority bound: you're officially out of excuses for not hitting the gym. Bryant Park's Blink Fitness finally has an opening date of July 22nd, and the cazy-affordable Equinox progeny is letting you sign up for just $1. ($1.05 after tax.)

You won't have to pay another cent until the it officially opens for business, at which point you'll be charged a measly $20 a month for membership fees (roughly the amount of two Chipotle burritos). You can have your elliptical time and afford Soul Cycle classes, too.—Hali Berman
