    I pay 25$ CAD per month for my gym membership. I used to take dance lessons (45$ per semester). I received my free weights and my 2 Jillian Michaels DVDs as Christmas gifts. I don't buy any protein or shakes.

    Wow glad my gym membership isn't as expensive as what seems to be about the general consensus... Mine is $28/mo... all of the cardio machines have their own TV and the whole thing is only about a year and a half old...

    I spend between $35-70/mo for RAW meal replacement beyond Organic... depending on whether I only have it for 1 meal a day or 2... I buy it on Ebay... I always get the vanilla and mix with coffee and almond milk and only do 1 scoop of it... sure it kind of tastes like licking the bottom of a dirty fish bowl... but it is the single healthiest 'food' I've EVER seen, so worth it to me for the health benefits... plus maybe it's just me, but even though I can eat cheese ok, I just cannot stomach the aftertaste in Whey protein.

    I pay $70 a month for MMA classes, and the centre lets you use their cardio and weight equipment any time. I also do P90X at home for free (yay Pirate Bay :tongue: ) .

    My gym ws $285 up front for the year, works out to $23.75/mo. For that I get a full weight room, machines and free weights, squat rack, smith machines, dumbbells, treadmills, ellipticals, and bikes. 2 full basketball courts with an elevated running track above them (1/12 mile loop). 6 lane lap pool (25 yards) with at least 2 lanes always open for lap swims, and a splash pool for the kiddos (3 ft max depth, with a tube waterslide). They have open swim times as well, which I can use. Not bad for what I pay.

    Has anyone heard of IMS Barter?? That is how I pay for my gym membership. It's great. I also pay for my personal training sessions that way. Just dropped $1500 trade dollars on a new 6month program. Please feel free to PM me if you would like more information. Or go to www.imsbarter.com

    I am not soliciting, just passing on helpful information. Thank you.

    I get access to one gym free from the wife's job.

    I pay $10/month for another one.

    I have a treadmill and a bunch of weights/equipment in the garage.

    I still don't manage to actually work out with any frequency... :-/

    $30/month for the gym (cardio, weights, classes, pool, jacuzzi, sauna). This is totally worth it as I go to two Zumba classes and two Yoga classes a week which would probably run me at least $20/week individually. I go through about 2 jugs of protein every 3 months, so that works out to be about $30/month for that. I've spent maybe $80 in the last year on exercise apparel and $130 on shoes (but I would've bought new sneakers anyway).

    Y'all must be going to the fancy clubs to pay what some of y'all are! I pay $20 a month at my gym, includes all the classes. But I spend probably about $400 a month total on fitness...I see my personal trainer 3X a week, always having to get new workout gear because mine gets too big, and protein powder/bars are PRICEY! Though one does not have to spend that kind of money for their health...but I used to spend that much money a month on going out to eat, drinking, and buying crap I didn't need...so I am okay with it :happy:

    $26.49/m after tax. That's the cheapest we have here. Looked at one yesterday that would run me $348 for a personal trainer + $44.99/m, but I don't think I'll do that. My gym has the bare minimum right now.

    I am going to look at one today with an indoor pool, indoor track, classes, free training help, etc.. I'm guessing it'll be much more than I can afford ($80/m is my estimate).


    Edit: As for fitness, I don't spend that much per month. I buy what I need, when I need it. Just bought an HRM for 80 on amazon, I buy new clothes from time to time. I have a pair of $120 sneakers (plantar fasciitis sucks), but I don't have any *good* workout clothes. I spend most of my money on food. I'd love to buy a personal trainer, but I am/will be paying for school out of pocket so that won't be for awhile! :cry:

    The YMCA by my house is like $165 a year...which isn't bad...they take into consideration how much you make and the cost of your bills and total it and that's what you pay. Honestly I think every gym should do this! Just because you are low on money doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to join a gym. My boyfriend and I are going to join soon :)
