My frontline fitness gym membership has became locked again. I unlocked it months ago and bought however it’s became locked again without reason or refund. What gives?

Moved to Questions and Answers. As the above said, if you don’t meet the current requirements for that gym, it’ll close until you do once more.

Once you get your battle stats ratio good enough, the gym opens automatically, no need to spend more money.

From the wiki:
To unlock a Specialist Gym, you need to meet certain requirements. If you no longer meet those requirements, you will be kicked out, however, you will keep your membership and can rejoin once you have met the requirements again.

If you could keep specialist gyms open despite not having the requirements then SSL is entirely useless since you’d be able to train at SSL level with Xanax. Not that SSL isn’t pointless anyway, but if you want better gym gains you have to sacrifice something.

SSL has 9 gym dots, vs 8 for the best non-SSL, but yeah... it’d make it less appealing. They’re also *specialist* gyms. You have to specialize to use them. It wouldn’t be particularly interesting if everyone unlocked all the specialist gyms and used them all the time while staying balanced.

FWIW, I consider Baldr’s ratio to be ‘fairly’ balanced. Use the 8 gym dot gym for one stat, and the 7.5 gym dot one that has the same stat and another stat (for the other one, obviously). Then the remaining two stats in George’s.

baldr's has two defensive stats or two offensive stats trained in specialist gyms. hank's has one defensive stat and two offensive stats trained in specialist gyms. what undo described is baldr's.

Yup, but the part about keeping 2 specialist gyms open? As I understand it, in Baldr's ratio you have one specialist gym for training 2 stats and you train the other 2 stats in George's.

If you use Baldr's Ratio, you can keep two specialist gyms open and still maintain fairly balanced stats - apx. 31% / 22% / 24% / 22% distribution for example, where the 31/24% would be your preferred pair like Def/Dex or Str/Spd.

As far as I know, the only way to keep 2 specialist gyms open is with Hank's ratio. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I use Baldr's ratio and have 2 specialist gyms open - Balboa's and Mr. Isoyama's.

edit to add:
Baldr's Ratio lets you use two special gyms to train two of your stats, and your other two get trained in George's Gym.
undo [2090073]
If you did that, your ratio would be more like 28% / 28 % / 22% / 22% (assuming I did the math right). Instead, training one to 31% to have the 8 dot gym, the second to 24% for the 7.5 dot gym, and the remaining two to 22% for George's lets you train that highest stat more efficiently, at the cost of a bit more imbalance (but still fairly balanced compared, to, say, Hank's ratio, which isn't balanced).

EDIT: Hank's ratio lets you train 3 stats in 2 special gyms, so it's more efficient than Baldr's ratio.
