## Description

You shouldn't have to wonder if your gym membership is a waste of money. This MCP gives your AI client the math tools needed to break down your fitness spending. Instead of looking at a single monthly number, you can see exactly what each visit costs you and how much value you're getting from extra perks. 

If you're debating between a high-end club and a local studio, this MCP runs the break-even analysis for you. It also helps you decide if buying a squat rack for your garage is actually cheaper than paying a monthly fee over the next year. You can quantify the utility of specific amenities to see if that pool or sauna actually offsets your membership cost. It's about moving from vague feelings about your health budget to hard data that helps you make better financial decisions about your lifestyle.
