Michelangelo famously claimed that the human form of a sculpture resided in the stone itself, and that the artist’s task was merely to free it using totally tubular nunchaku moves. With today's Groupon, free the finely sculpted form lurking beneath your skin, For $39, you get a one-month membership to Premier at Sawmill Athletic Club. A one-month membership is normally $78 plus the $99 initiation fee, giving your Groupon a total value of $177.

As Premier celebrates its 30th anniversary, all of the facilities are as sparkling clean and well maintained as the day it was born. An ultra-clean fitness center is the ideal environment for getting fit, since extra dust and dirt can get into your lungs, slowing down your breathing and lowering your lift capacity. All of Premier's equipment is state of the art. You'll find machines that will help you get in shape faster than a celebrity does after adopting a baby. Amid the space-age equipment, you'll still find classics such as free weights and benches. The crowd is friendly, so you don't have to worry about cowboy brawls or overly loud screaming contests. People of all fitness levels can find comfort pumping some crunches and blasting some glutes in the gym. While you work out, the many TVs scattered about will take your mind to a happier place, like a mission control center, or Best Buy.

In addition to access to the fitness center, your month-long membership includes access to the aquatics and racquetball facilities. Premier features both an indoor and outdoor pool, making it as adaptable to the seasons as an adult crocodator. There are also five full-sized racquetball courts for players ranging from novice to David Caruso. Tournaments, pick-up games, and casual games of flaming racquetball are all commonplace on the friendly courts at Premier.
