How much are your gym fees? (Page 4)

Weight Room  - $0  I'm a volunteer fireman so I get free access to a nice weight room with cardio and no lines.

Swimming Pool - $0  My wife is the park and rec director, so I pay for my pool fees by being her volunteer committee.  (scorekeeping youth basketball, hiding easter eggs, doing minor pool maintenance,  softball field prep,  help organizing a local bicycle tour, etc.....)

Because the word is technically defined as and most frequently used in reference to a female?

Not defending the use, and I'm sure there's a male equivalent that can be used if the OP chose to...

ultrahip_00 - 2009-01-13 6:49 AM i just bought a coupon from costco for 2 years at 24 hr fitness for $300 (comes out to $12.50/month).  i wanted to join gold;s gym out here, but it was $69/month and $300 to join

I belong to the Gold's that you looked at, however, I got in with no joining fee and $30/month for three gyms, of which I use 2 very regularly in the cold weather season.  I pay an extra $35/mo for unlimited child care....so 5 days x 2 hrs/day x 4 weeks= 40 hours, less than $1 hr for childcare.  Best deal for me!

Cool club - I inspected it last year!

$39.00/month at Golds (all locations)

24 hour access is vital to me.

I pay $160 pre year.

Includes - Cardio (dreadies,bikes,stairs ect) Weight area (rivels any PowerHouse) locker area with Dry sauna, steam room and hot tub, Indoor track and a Pool (8lanes and has play area including waterslide...YAHOooo!)

Any of the city's YMCA's are free through my insurance (Spin classes some of the swimming)

Natatorium - swimfit Masters $28/mo for YMCA members (48 for non-members)

National Institute for Fitness and Sport - indoor running track (almost as bad as a treadmill but not as bad as the -3F that it is outside today), spin bikes etc   $46/mo.

With all of the sundry of facilities scattered about the city I have no excuse to not get a workout in other than the "lack of time".

I paid around $650 for a 3 year prepaid membership last April at 25 hour fitness.  The membership is an all club membership so I can go to any club anywhere in the United States.  I've probably been to a dozen different ones throughout the state and in a couple other states.  The membership came with 4 personal training sessions, which were great.  

But the best thing is that the renewal fees will be $49 per year, which equals a few cents more than $4 per month.  They said that they have never increased the renewal fees but if they ever decide to the contract says the most they can increase them is $5 per year as long as I renew every year with no interruption.  Now that's an incredible deal.
