How much do you pay for gym? Whats the Max you would pay?
Although I prefer to play sport ie Soccer I find in my post university years I have no time to commit to training matches etc. Currently a Derrimut Gym member and I personally think it is the best value for money membership in Melbourne – $399 (as low at 199 with a promotion) .
Prior to that I was a member of anytime fitness Keilor Downs was paying around $650 but the bloke promised me a free 2 months at the end of my contact and didn’t honour it saying I was on a ‘good rate’ and that I would have to renew again personally I think $650 is expensive – $12.5 a week and I simply don’t want anything to do with a business that doesn’t honour its word. Lets put some perceptive I don’t think it is all anytime fitness just that moron owner.
Prior to that I was at Good life (originally Fenix) – At Fenix I was on $550 (started at $650 after 2 years got cheaper) for 14 months when good life took over they tried to bump it up to $700 which over 14months worked out to be ~13.5 a week. I main reason I left was they weren’t 24/7 at that time and closing at 8pm on a Friday and 1pm on public holidays was simply didnt suit me at the time – now they are 24/7 how much a membership is?
Prior to that I was at the local Taylors Lakes gym which I was a student rate at $550 (2005) – although it was a good gym it got super packed at 4pm-8pm and i eventually left because my friends joined Fenix and wanting to be social I followed (sheep style). It also was the same price as Fenix when my high school rate ended. – however Lakes had a pool (not a lap pool), Sauna and Spa
So some people have posted about gyms and I was thinking what do people think is a fair price?
There is a load of competition these days for your dollar however there is more than just money to consider and of course the actual gym itself is the ultimate deciding factor ie if it is clean, has a wide range of equipment, is 24/7, multiple locations etc
Me personally I think $10 per week on an annual membership maybe $15 per week on a casual is the most I’d pay and it would have to be decent however I know people on like $32+ a week memberships at gyms like Fitness First. Also there a women at my work that pay like $1200 a year going to fernwood (I guess you paying for the women only)
So what do you pay? can we get some transparency so other OzB can negotiate with there gyms for better rates?
