So much for this been a fitness thread!

Thinking of joining a gym. What do people pay per month?

anything between £12 and £90, depends what you are looking for

For £90 I'd expect a footman to go and lift weights for me while a maid served tea and cream cakes to me in the restaurant.

or be at Bannatines somewhere down south!

That's pretty much what happens in the gyms I used in Delhi.

David Lloyd are wanting something like £77 per month. Some new gyms in London are about £15 a month on offer (usually £25) but I want to go near home. Seems to be about £31 at our local sports centre but I think that's a bit steep.

I go to Exercise4Less in Hull, although there ain't a lot of them around. They are brilliant value imo. I pay £10pm has about 12 benches which is a lot compared to some gyms that are lucky to have a handful. Plenty of free weights and smith machines. A crossfit section and group activities area. Spinning class section. Loads of treadmills and cross trainers, half a dozen rowers plus more and even a boxing ring. The only thing it doesn't have is swimming pool/jacuzzi or saunas. But that's why it's so cheap. Brilliant gym without heavy costs. Saying that I would go to David lloyds if it was close to where I live or on route to work but I also refuse to pay roughly £60pm for it.

I train at a little backstreet gym and I know a few other members also go to xercise4less for the convenience, heard it's pretty good when it's quiet but that's a rarity with the massive membership base they have.

Why?

Yeah you're right it has shed loads of members, but I work shifts so I go first thing in a morning or straight after work at 2 o'clock. I wouldn't even attempt going after four as it'll be hectic.

Getting old. Thought I'd try to top up a bit of fitness while I, hopefully, still can.
