    FREE!!

    But that's only cause I work there... before I started working there I went to Crunch and it was like $9.95/month... totally do-able. There was also a one time enrollment fee and there's an annual fee of like $40 but honestly, I had almost no money and I could manage it :)

    I go to a small locally owned gym. They had a special for Black Friday where you could buy 6 mos. and get 6 mos free, so that worked out to about $12 a month. But I also started going to boot camp a few weeks ago and that was an additional $149 for 12 weeks, 3x a week.

    All the "women should lift heavy" posts have me hankering for a gym membership so I can have access to free weights, but our budget is reeeeeally tight, and all my healthy grocery shopping isn't exactly freeing up extra money for it right now.

    What about working out at home?? I am doing a program right now that costs just as much as a gym per month but its at ome and I keep he dvds and it's a bunch of dvd's ad different routines everytime. I love it!!

    Free, except for the occasional parking fee. I enjoy walking, hiking and biking. Each week I try to find a new place to hike and that has been the best workout for me. I also have a small weight set I use at home, trying to tone my arms. In our garage, I also have a stationery bike and elliptical, I try to use them daily.

    I used to have an LA fitness membership and was $40/month. I just had Anytime fitness and was $39/month. I quit anytime because I got a new job that has a gym FREE of charge in the building but wish I could access something on the weekends. Was there an initial fee when you joined LA fitness? I'm thinking of going back there...
    I did pay an initiation fee. I can't remember the exact price. But my rate is locked it and I have access to all the clubs except the "special" ones in NY.

    As I'm a low-income individual in part due to employers not wanting to hire me as a person with a visual impairment...I had been looking at the Y and even with their discount it's a bit more expensive than the city facilities. So I opted for the city centre for now and when I get more money...I'll maybe go to the Athletic Club or the Y. Without the low income/disability discount you can get a "class A" membership for 500$ all included save personal training which is a few bucks more but not much; I paid around...345? In September when I found out I was approved.

    Class A mmebership allows me access to all 7 city facilities, which have more to offer than a smaller, cheaper class B facility. So I have access to both 'classes' of city centres with my membership which gives me more options.

    Better than the local GoodLife as the ones that aren't co-ed here are more 'barbie weights' oriented maybe not as good as the Y or Athletic Club but I have all I need... a pool, well-maintained cardio machines and a good selections of free weights or machines as well as friendly, helpful staff and all depending where I go one of the places I go to's "busy" period maybe has...8-12 people in there? "Busy being from 10AM-3PM

    Goodlife got some good deals.
    It really depends on you, if you are a doctor/dentist then there is a huge discount from your association.
    Anyways, I signed up along with my 4 members family. The deal goes as this. The first paying person pays around 60$ monthly. the 2nd 50$ and the rest are 34$ (does not matter how many members you have after that).
    Now this deal will give you access to all goodlife gyms, but what I really like about goodlife is that they got a pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, and definitely the group work classes

    I'l be honest it might be a bit expensive, But going to the Gym is a really important thing Trust me on this one.
    I tried many home exercise DVDs like Shaun T (Insanity) and p90x, but the gym was the most effective (IFF YOU FOLLOW A DECENT DIET).

    All in all, since you are paying for a gym you will be committed unlike as I mentioned a sec ago Insanity or P90X
    Try to go with a friend or family member, it will greatly increase your burning output. (I lost 4 kg in 4 visits to the gym)

    If you have any further questions msg me and add me as a friend :D
    Best of luck in your journey

    Used to be £42 a month (student discount) for unlimited access to all centres in my borough but never went lol Too much work having to get a bus to the best one.
    I now pay £16 for a gym 2 mins from my house, but the classes are crap/never on, so looking at joining one 5 mins from my house that has better classes. Unfortunatly the £16 gym I'm stuck with till January.
    The really good gyms are £50+ a month that I just can't afford.

    Mine is about $45 a month (300 kr. in Swedish money), but my work reimburses up to 2000 kr. per year (about $300), so that covers a little more than half per year. It's a great benefit!

    My goodlife (Ontario Canada) membership is 21 plus tax bi weekly. Its not bad but I think there are cheaper gyms in my area. If you don't think you can budget for a gym membership try find a set of used free weights for cheap and look up free weight exercises on youtube or bodybuilding.com

    I plan on getting access to the fitness room on my street. (It's for all the apartments on the street) Last time I heard it was one time fee of $20 for the key for as long as you live here. However, recently I saw an advertisement on the street (they have these HUGE signs everywhere up and down the street!), that says workouts on the one-site gym are free. Makes me wonder if I still have to pay for the key. I am going to inquire next time I go to the office to pay my rent. I'm not sure what they have in there, but I hope they at least have a treadmill and exercise bike. I want to be able to go there when it's raining or other bad weather where I can't get out and walk.

    My husband and I spend $15 dollars each a month for Fitness 19. The hours are convenient, there's no contract, tons of weight lifting machines/cardio machines, and even more importantly, no one uses the olympic barbells (but me and maybe one other person each time I'm there).

    We used to spend $60 ish each to go to the 24hr Super Sport, but this has been so convenient (and we're more inclined to go because of that).

    I belong to Ideal Fitness. My parents have memberships and added my sisters and I on (even though we don't live with them), for $9 each, per month. So, I pay my dad the $9.

    My gym is nice, but basic. Meaning, it has everything I need, but it does not offer classes like the larger gyms, nor does it have a pool. The cardio equipment includes the standard treadmills, elipticals, the high step ellipticals, stair climbers and the machine that looks a little like the Tony Little machine. The key for me is that each machine has it's own tv. There is plenty of variety of machines and free weights too. We do not have a contract and they are open 7x24

    Mine is free since my health insurance pays 100%. I go to the Y, which is great because I can take my ten year old daughter, also.
