Not paying shit at mine, owner doesn't care. It's a fucking shithole anyway. If I had to pay I wouldn't be going there. Then again, the number of decent gyms in the area is pretty close to 0 anyway.

$45 monthly.  IT includes all classes/yoga, but I don't use those.  Come to think of it, I haven't even been to the gym in four months.  I should go today.

Who the hell is going to pay $360 a month?

It's a strength and conditioning gym for sports in one of the most expensive areas in Southern California... It's specialized for athletes so it's not just a regular gym.

Parents with kids who want to become collegiate powerhouses pay for their kids to go there... It's a nice gym.

I believe training is also provided with the cost. If you add it all up, it's probably not a bad deal.
Title: Re: how much are your gym fees?
Post by: JasonH on January 03, 2014, 12:08:24 PM
£25 a month (roughly about $41 a month in US money)

It's a good gym, with all the equipment I need, not too busy either. Having said that I wouldn't pay any more than that for any gym.

remember, we're a private gym. $360 is less than most private training. This price is for 2 days per week with access to classes, camps nutrition and access to the gym during open hours. We average 449-$540.

Best investments one can make = home gym. If you got the space.

I'm the same way on Craigslist lol always looking.

My brother got his hands on a $600 power rack for $200 off craigs last year. Brand new never assembled. Sum bitch.

So many gyms around here are scams and rip offs.  Long-term contracts, up-front fees, joining fees, cancellations fees, hidden fees, underqualified and overweight personal trainers, and so on.

They're just preying on naive fat people.  Greedy cnuts.

ya, it doesn't make sense to have members paying $19 per month, but they have been with me for over 21 years.   actually, I have over 100 members that joined the first year and are still members.  and the word of mouth I get from the long term loyal members is invaluable.

believe me, a lot of those members have even offered to pay more. they say they wouldn't mind.  but it's just one of the things that distinguishes me from the franchises with their annual inflationary  clauses. I made a commitment that I would never increase a single members dues. 

there is the pure mathematical practical way of measuring value; then there are the intangibles that can't be measured on a calculator or balance sheet.

£25/$40 per month for a I've trained at for 22/23 years. Once hardcore, now less so but still a good selection of plates, dumbells and machines, not too much cardio equipment.

£11/$18 per month for a 24 hour gym that opened in December. Bags of cardio stuff, good machines (except for the leg machines which are useless, don't even have a standing calf!)

I pay $0.00. My employer (a university) just added 50,000 sq ft to the fitness center. Three levels, indoor running track, machines etc. On the lower floor is the hardcore area, free weights, LOTS of hammer strength. Plus a employee only area with all the machines and dumbells and a smith machine and cardio. I am very lucky and very grateful to my Employer for this perk!!!
