Gym Memberships

• When looking at joining a gym, it’s important to consider the location of the facility.

• Take a look at the hours and schedules, see if their business hours fit into your schedule.

• Ask about and consider the perks and amenities offered by the membership.

• Remember that trainers should be certified from an accredited organization.

• Gym memberships range from $20 to over $100 per month and vary from region to region.

Ask for:

• free passes
  
• waived fees
  
• free training

In the contract, look for:

• the price per month
  
• the number of months
  
• a locked rate
  
• an auto renew plan

And, most importantly, before you sign the contract, know if you can get out of it!
