Title: Is your gym expensive?
Post by: rccs on December 15, 2006, 08:07:46 AM: How much do you guys pay per month at your gym? I pay 34 Eur, but the gym is missing some weight...
How much do you pay for a protein shake at your gym? 1 Eur.
And please say the country/city, just to make a good comparison. Portugal / Porto

Post by: Saxon on December 15, 2006, 08:14:46 AM: 25 pounds sterling, which is about 38 yoyos or 50 dollars. Gym is in Northern Ireland.

2 pounds for a protein shake I think never buy them.

Gym is more designed for women, weight loss and soccer/GAA players, needs more dumbells.

Post by: El Diablo Blanco on December 15, 2006, 08:28:17 AM: I pay $20 bucks a month for a pure steel gym. This Athletic club near it or as I like to call it "Daycare for adults" Wants $1250 down and $125 a month. The worst part is they are packed. The weight area is pathetic so I guess they just go for the wine tasting. Yes they have wine tasting. Gay place altogether

You should watch out for specials. I went to the tanning salon with my lil sis and they guy was giving away packages with a whole lot of minutes. One was 60 other one was 80. So here she tries to pay with her debit but he couldn't take it so he sent us to a bank machine. We come back and my sister decides to take the 80$ after the persuasion of the dick and against my advice, CASH. Needless to say I only spent maybe 15minutes their and next time I came back they closed down the salon with obviously no information on where to reach the loser.

Post by: Adam Empire on December 15, 2006, 08:31:35 AM: 33/month - and it's paid monthly not all up front which I like. I'm not certain how that converts to yoyos, slinkies, or rubix cubes though.

Title: Re: Is your gym expensive?
Post by: Dingleberry on December 15, 2006, 08:33:08 AM: I paid about $30 a month at a local Worlds gym. There is another gym that just opened which is smaller than worlds, wants over $100 a month, and like a $200 startup fee. It's some kind of training place for professional athletes that regular people can go. What's funny is a lot of people go there and pay that kind of money, just because it's a status thing.
I say "paid" because I no longer go to Worlds, I went and got one of these - http://www.bodysolid.com/Item.aspx?ItemID=249&ItemLabel=SBL460P4%3a+Body-Solid+Leverage+Gym# (http://www.bodysolid.com/Item.aspx?ItemID=249&ItemLabel=SBL460P4%3a+Body-Solid+Leverage+Gym#)
With my second business, new house, and kids, I was having a hard time finding time to get to the gym so I got one of those. I'm still going to sign up for a month here and there, just so I keep my muscles stimulated with new movements.
