I think I am going to join the local gym tomorrow (monday) with student discount
I would pay £17.50 a year
60p every swim- aim to go 4 times a week (no time limit)
£1 boot camp (40mins) every friday
,Zumba £4 every friday
gym session three times a week £1.60

Thats good right?

    so the most you could lose (if you stopped going) is 17.50? Sounds good to me! And I bet you will, take full advantage of it.

    I pay £350 a year with pool, gym, sauna, steam, and all classes.
    Private gym.
    But if I don't go, I lose it all.
    So maybe it is good as you can pay when you want and if you don't go, you just don't pay apart from the 17.50 :O)

    My gym membership is £27/month, all classes are included, as is the use of the pool. No hidden extras.

    - years gym pass = £180
    - years gym + swim = £220

    £12 a week is quite a lot. is there no monthly fee you can pay where its all included?

    i would like to join a gym where i can go for a swim too, but the one i could go to is just too expensive compared to what i pay at the moment.

    50 odd quid a month doesn't sound all that cheap to me. I suppose it depends on the prices of similar gyms in the area. I pay £89 per month for mine, which is pretty expensive but the only other place close by is 90!

    No that is the cheapest way of doing all of those activities. Those days/sessions are what I aim to do but no doubt life will get in a day. Although I do hope to go swimming 4 times a week £2.40 and gym 3 times a £4.80 so thats £7.20 a week without the zumba or boot camp...I really have no idea if that is good ?

    Check out DWSports if there's one in your area. All of their classes, use of the gym and the pool is included in the monthly rate. They also have reduced rates for students.

    Thanks for the help but there is no DWsports near me. I think I will go to the gym tomorrow and check it out. I may also look at a few others to see what they offer but I really like the idea of swimming and bootcamp :)
