I have a secret to share with you... Gym memberships are totally negotiable. There is no reason to pay more than $25/ month per person. Here are a few tips:
1. Go on the last day of the month. These guys want to make their quotas, so you'll get a better deal on this day than on any other day.
2. Try to pay as much up front as you can, if not all. If you can pay for a whole year up front, or in only two payments instead of month to month, you'll get a better deal.
3. If you know you'll be absolutely committed, then don't be afraid of a contract. Most gyms can make exceptions on your contract if you have a major life event that prevents you from going like moving away, or having a baby. You can put you membership on hold and unfreeze it anytime you want for a small fee. If you're afraid of the comittment, look for a gym that does not use contracts... but let's be honest... maybe commitment is what you need to get yourself there!
4. Don't commit to ANYTHING if you're not comfortable with what you're getting for your money. Period. Don't be afraid to ask for a better deal or walk away.
5. Get your booty over to my girl, JEWELS HAMILTON at Gold's Gym Sugarhouse and she'll hook you up!
I'm at Gold's and I usually go to the West Valley location because it's close to home and directly on the way from work, but I also like to bounce around from gym to gym around the valley to meet friends and have some variety in scenery. And I'm ALWAYS looking for buddies who are willing to push themselves and do some serious work, as opposed to goofing off and socializing at the gym. So if you want to come with me, please do!!
Love,
Mandee
