How much do you pay for your gym membership?

[smn159]

£13.60 / month since they installed one at work. Good selection of weights and cardio stuff and I use it every time that I'm on site.

None of you belong to DLL then?

Yip, thats my 150/month

£98 per month, since changing jobs I'm no longer getting there at quiet times and I find it too busy. I'm now running 3/4 times per week so I'm going to knock it on the head in the new year and join my wifes work gym which is on the other side of the road for .... £7 pm

If I'd saved the money instead (joined in 1999) I'd be in a pretty sweet 911 by now

I think you win this.

Mind you up until October, I had full use of a decent gym without charge because I did one class there.

No, free wins.

To be fair my work gives us free access to Virgin Active (tier 1 clubs) - BUT its too far to walk from the office to shower so I opted to pay £45 a month to save a 10 min walk

Impressive that you have a decent cable machine in your home!

You could cycle...

There is one in the office which is free to use and there is one in another club, also free to use.

Towels are free to use in the office too.

Second best thing I have bought for the gym. The first being the squat rack. Really comes in handy and negates the need for free weights for a lot of exercise which speeds up time between sets a lot.

My bike would be nicked in ten mins.

Unless the cables are extremely short he'll have a problem doing standing flyes!

How about one of these / or all:

http://www.amazon.com/Kryptonite-997986-Black-Fahg...

the kryptonite supposed to require an angle grinder + >5mins to cut through it.

What do you do now? Lock your bike at the gym?

[okgo]

Ride to work, dump bike, walk to gym and wash, walk back, whole process from entering office with bike takes about 20 mins, its worth the £45, I would never, ever, leave a £5k bike locked up anywhere, and while I don't ride it all the time I ride it in enough that its not worth the risk.

Fair play. Quite a bike you have then at 5k! What does it weigh?

Two gyms.

One is a private members gym, ran by us, for us. £10 per month.

Second is PureGym, a rather good one at that. £17 per month. They've recently extended it to the tune of £1/4M, cracking place now. Etiquette is actually very good, certainly far better than any large chain gym I've ever been in.

The staff are no-nonsense though, which helps a LOT and the scumbag quotient is very low (famous last words )

The two people I'm most envious on on here are diddely - Results gym is freakin' awesome, and there's a LOT of collective knowledge and experience there. That alone is worth the cost, imo

Other person is Pvapour - equally freakin' awesome joint, and it's all his!

Though, I'm itching to see Balder's new place

Could of sworn the title was something like 'how much do you pay for your gym membership'...

Hoofy - don't you train at home, HSPUs and other bodyweight exercises? Think that might make you the winner if you're allowed to drift from thread relevance. No membership, No equipment needed.

[Davey S2]

Pure Gym here £18 pm.

Great value.

I have barbells, dumbbells and kettlebells, too.

I just wouldn't mind free access to a gym with more weights. And fixed dumbbells because I'm lazy.
