How do u guys pay $0? (unless it is a home gym...but this is geared towards membership gyms)

I'm in the military. Not only do we get free gym membership, we get time off during work hours to work out. Mind you, we're also fitness tested annually.

I do occationally use local gyms and pay $5 drop in charges.

I pay [1 million dollars] a month, which is roughly $60 now i think. That gives me unlimited use of a gym, swimming pool, sauna, steam-room and jacuzzi.

Nice. I had a free gym membership when I was in the army- which of course I never used when I was in the army!

The cost is gonna depend on the city, country, and franchise. I got lucky, the gym I go to was just opening and offering some membership promotions. Such as "We don't open for a month but if you sign up now you can get a membership for $25 per month". They probably figured most would quit after 1 year, and sign up again the following January. A common amount with my co-workers seems to be around $50 a month.

Some gyms treat their membership sign up process like buying a used car, so you may have some wiggle room in that respect.

$13/month

I pay a lot, but it's hard to break it down to "gym cost" since I'm paying for one-on-one or small-group (maybe 2 trainees, one coach) personal training at a specialized facility. That's kind of an apples/oranges comparison. It's way more than the other guys in this thread are paying.

I can always check the local gyms and see what they charge, if you're looking for something of an area survey of costs. Won't be cheap, I think, since NJ has a very high cost of living...

45 dollars for month to month. Unlimited use, has everything but a swimming pool.

(Could have paid 32 or 35 for a 12 month contract. Don't recomend that.)

99$ for 4 months (summer package deal for students). im also told that they will be running a winter special for 99$ for like 3-5 months i forget exactly what the manager at the gym told me. the nice part is I can freeze the account (which is helpful if you're home sporadically for 1-4 weeks every 1-2 months.

I was paying $15.00 per month, cancelled my membership because i got some equip. for the garage but signed up again a few months ago at $29.00 per month. My garage is too small now because my wife uses it for storage. Don't ask why i can't just move it somewhere else. Long story.

I don't do commercial gyms, but just my choice. The local Y is about 345 USD/yr, and the good gym over on Bonney Rd here at the Beach , complete with a platform and chalk, with PL and OL coaching goes for a base (with no one on one) fpr around 50 USD / month

Hmm...I had a gym for $10 a month plus a free of like $30 once a year...but...you had to sign a year contract to get it. I decided to not resign up...as I do not know where I will be next year. Smart move?
