    $21 and change a month. I had $0 enrollment and just a fee so it was $48 to join including the first month.

    As for supplements, mine seem to last quite some time, bc i dont use protein everyday, so on average $50 every 2 months or so

    $17.99 for access to all their clubs. I mostly go to the one that's literally 5 minutes away from me but occasionally use the 24 hour ones and full access only $3.00 more than the single access membership. They have classes etc but I never use that stuff. After I've reached my weight goal I'm considering giving up the gym. For cardio I'm running now so I only go three times a week to lift. It probably depends on if I'm happy with what I see or if I want to do some building up. Right now I just do a simple full body and I could probably do that at home.

    As far as supplements I'd say about $20ish a month plus a few bucks for peanut butter and instant coffee (mixers). Sometimes the brands I alternate between are on buy one get one half off too so I stock up when I see that.

    Too much. If it weren't for the indoor pool, I'd drop it and stick to my work's gym. In fact, I might do that anyway.

    My gym is a 24 hour express gym, $25/month. I paid 2 years upfront worked out to $17/month. I just started buying protein shakes and mix, don't even want to know what that will work out to every month, yikes.

    Oh forgot to add my insurance company reimburses us $200 a year if we go at least 2-3 days a week so pretty much covers it.

    55.00 monthly for a family membership (but you do have to sign up for automatic draft to get that price), including all classes (Zumba, weight training, aerobics, step, yoga). It is a partially subsidized health and fitness center paired with a Rehabilitation Clinic and After hours clinic, so senior citizens and those on fixed incomes get a break on the cost, and those of us who aren't pay full price, which compared to a lot of membership prices I see on here isn't bad at all. I love it, and I love that those who are usually too financially disadvantaged are able to utilize it to get or stay healthy. They also sponsor free classes on dietary management of health problems and free health screenings.
    Including money spent on dietary supplements and fitness gear, I probably average around 30.00 or so a month. I buy all my supplements online which is way cheaper, and buy a good pair of running shoes/clothes every six months or so.

    I paid ~$500 for my gym, but I built it at home, both me and my wife use it so I guess $250 each.

    Pretty sure it has everything that I would use at a commercial gym (treadmill, step machine, 2 bikes, bench(which doubles as a squat rack) , 1 long and 2 short bars, about 120kg of free weights, dumbbell bars and 'girly' dumbbells and a weight machine which includes a overhead bar, chest press, legs, seated row bar.), punching bag, step, and a yoga mat.

    $175 plus taxes (works out to close to $200) a month for my gym. I live in a big city, and this gym is located at the heart of the financial district where I work, so prime real estate. State of the art, high end, top of the line gym. Expensive, but to me, worth every single penny.

    I'm lucky I get mine free through my work - I'm a teacher and get to use the school gym after school and evenings and weekends and holidays. We have a pool too so can even have a swim, saves me a fortune!

    $80/month, 1 month free when I pre-pay for the year. It's quite a bit of money but I go all the time and feel like it's worth the expense. I got to stop taking blood pressure and cholesterol medication as a result so there's a couple of co-pays I no longer have to pay. :)

    I don't buy supplements but eating healthy in general is more expensive.

    Oh yeah, and now that I'm running in various races and mud races I'm spending about $500 this year on entrance fees.

    I pay $75/month for my climbing gym -- but work pays half of my fitness costs, so yay. I also pay for a volleyball league that runs around $60 per season.

    Ugh

    My yoga/spin studio is 149/mo.
    My regular gym is 39.99/mo.
    My pool is 3 bucks per swim but it's outdoor versus the indoor pool at my gym.

    YIKES!

    $39 a month, which allows for myself, my wife and my 12yo to workout and the kid's room for my 7yo. I spend maybe $15-$20 a month on Gatorade.

    $30/month for the gym, and about $50/month for classes at my bikram yoga studio. The yoga is expensive, but my body appreciates the deep stretch after my long run days.

    I don't really buy any supplements, so no cost there.

    Edit: I do enter races. They run $30-$100 per race, and I typically do one every other month.

    We have an awesome 24 Hour Super Sport in the Bay Area, CA which also has and great Kid's Club. I was able to get a really great deal at $34.00 a month. Which is a steal! I can also go to any 24 Hourt Fitness except the few Ultra Sport facilities (the one above Super Sport) they have. I also want to join a MMA gym in our area, but it's $99 a month, which is too pricy for me. So, I just buy a 10 day pack (at the MMA gym) which I use sporadically there, so I can stretch it out.
