Survey

I have been seriously looking at gyms these last few weeks and I have found some really good gyms in my area. Some of them range from over-the-top to brummagem to your basic gyms. The prices vary just as much. I am doing a one week trial at one gym this week and I am trying out another one next week. So here is the survey -

Do you currently belong to a gym?

If yes,
How much do you pay per month?


If no,
How much would you be willing to pay for a gym membership?

No.

But I think a nice YMCA would be sufficient for me, and most of them have pools!

I do belong to the Moncton Y. It's newly constructed...a fabulous facility. I currently pay $48/month which sounds like a lot but this is what it includes:
- cardio area and free weights
- gym for fun stuff like basketball, badminton, etc. (rec style)
- all instructed classes (ie. yoga, spinning, centergy, etc)
- pool (for laps and open swims) and therapy pool
I have the plus membership...the locker rooms include clean towels, a hottub and a steam room (to die for). That's about it...but keep in mind this is Moncton, not a large city or anything.
Does this help? Hope so. I haven't been in two weeks though so I need to bust a move.

No.

I used to subscribe to gyms. But I usually end up paying the whole year and skip gym after 3 months.

Yes... I joined bally's in February (after having a hysterectomy in January). I go to the location that my boyfriend frequents. I went w/ a guest pass they asked me if I wanted to join. I said, "Yes... how much?" I got an add-on membership (family add on) of $17.18/mo. I kindof assumed they'd put me on his plan. Instead they looked up my last name and found a member 'in good standing' with the same last name as mine and added me on. I signed a 3 year contract but I only pay for the frist 2 years. I also had to put $75 down. My membership is just like Sue's (Montcton Y) but no gym towels. I go about 3x/week. I was willing to pay up to $25/mo but not a penny more. I found that gym memberships are like used cars. You've got to do a lot of research and cut thru the bullsheet b/c they all work on commission.

It cost me CAN$32.50 (US$27.00) per month for my gym. Aerobics/martial arts classes are extra. It's a very large and very well equipped for cardi and weights.
