How much do you pay for gym membership?

[macavity]

If you need to pay money for motivation, you're better off getting a personal trainer instead.

Get a big dog to run with and an aggressive wife to defend yourself against. No extra motivation needed!

 

[Fibroman]

27 bucks a month auto deduct out of the account. Don't even notice it.

 

[Mark Rudd]

$300 for 12 months at Cairns PCYC. Had olympic bars and rubber plates too. Gym prices are a sick joke in this country.

The Anytime fitness seem alright, I have a few around me.

However I'm with Jetts. I use to spend half my time in Newcastle, half in Sydney and there was one in the next suburb to both my places so saved having to buy 2 memberships.

I signed up with no joining fee, pay 18.95 a fortnight. Not as much stuff there as FF, but heaps less tools. Almost everything you need. But took one of my tool FF mates and hes like wtf, where is this machine etc etc. Less variety, less people, less tools, less price. I like it.

Exactly the reason I left f**kwits First. Too many morons who are impressed with themselves more than they should be. I'd go in some nights and not even be able to use a bench because there'd be a group of 6 of these idiots all standing around them not doing much, just occupying more than anything. Best thing I ever did was join Jetts, has everything I need, minus the dickheads

I'm with Jetts. I'm missing the bench press.

 

[McLovin]

25 or 26 a week... Only paying this much because there are literally only about 5 regulars there. The place is dead everytime i go...

 

[Shorty]

I have my own set up and obviously the place I work at once a week.
People can get their own stuff for pretty cheap...I mean if you're a keen muscle person who wants to lift heavy stuff then, yeah gyms are better.
But for the most part dumbbells and fitballs aren't too exxy.

Honestly so did I for the first couple of weeks, but I switched up to dumbbell bench, and I actually prefer it now

 

[Cliffhanger]

Dumbbell bench is actually better for you, it works your muscles harder because of how you have to stabilise the dumbbells.

 

[Frailty]

I don't pay a thing. Have free access to Gym at work (which is extremely well equipped given the nature of work) - available 24/7.

I reckon it took me a few months to get over the lack of bench. Dumbbells are better but I've injured my elbow at cricket so there's too much instability at the moment with them.

Spot on!

You could always use the smith machine if you're desperate. Personally I've never been that desperate

 

[Joker's Wild]

Smith machines are only good for hanging your towel on
