ninja64x Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 just a wee bit curious, how much is the average yearly gym fee in the U.S.A.?? over here (ireland) its about 500 euro. some places look for weekly fees, maybe 10 euro. i see todays exchange rate is $1.30 to the euro. none of us millionaires , so 500 is a fair amount.

daniel reinard Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I pay $65/month which is $780/year or 600euro. It's a rock climbing gym so a bit more than normal I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Styles Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I've paid from $30 a month to $110 a month at commercial gyms. I think Planet Fitness (lunk alarm place) might be $20 a month. In my experience, the equipment and trainers do not get any better with the higher fees. It's choice between working out with young punks or self centered pricks. I lift in my basement now.

Anthony151 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Gyms where I am very from $120- $250 a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rico300zx Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Planet fitness is $10 there's one directly across the street and every time I walk in to join I end up leaving. The people that work there think there doing something good by kicking everyone out that makes a peep. We don't need parents were all adults, there's too much control there with young kids pushing buttons. I liked the YMCA better I think it was $65 for the whole family Anyway I lift in my basement heater room or behing my shed now for free.

Geralt Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I pay 9 Euro's per month for a 24-7 entrance at my work's gym with a lot of weights and equipment, so that's a pretty good deal. Problem is I don't visit it that much since my arm injury, so then every month's fee is a waste of money. I train at home most of the time. Far better for me.

Sher Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I pay $30-35/month for the powerlifting focused gym I joined this summer, and I still pay on another more commercial one because it's so cheap - $4.85/month. (I got a deal when they were first starting up years ago - pay a lot up front but hardly anything from then on). My company gym was $15/month but I really didn't want to spend my off-hours at my workplace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djukac Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I pay 10 dollars a month. ten bucks is nothing. not even 2 pints of stout!! lucky man you are. 99% of the gyms in my town charge the same amount. There a couple of them that are more expensive around 20-30 dollars a month, but when you consider that the average salary in my country is 350 dollars it's not that cheap as it sounds to you.

AP Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 (edited) I've paid from about $200 to $450 a year, whatever that is in euros. Generally it's more expensive in city areas or for "athletic clubs" which have a bunch of other stuff (pools, bball courts, childcare etc). You can join my homegym for a 6 pack a month!

Parris Yep, spice only if it doesn't break the bank! I was upset when they went up from 4.50/month - they had a clause that they could go up every year but they only chose to do that once. Ha. Location of course makes such a difference - my fees are good considering I'm in a metropolitan area but the PL gym doesn't have all the extra amenities to charge more for either.

Malice Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I'm lifting at Pure Fitness right now and paid $240 for the year and got 6 months free for paying up front. Otherwise it was $20 a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Styles Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 The $110 a month was to workout at a gym in the heart of downtown chicago, without signing a year contract. It was actually one of the cheaper options that had decent free weights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
