Membership increasing to $450+
I signed up a couple years ago. I think it was around $350/year. Gave me 15 buddy pass people and allowed for 2 people to come with me at a time. It worked out since I was able to bring family with me every week. When we travel, we also try to go to a few other locations along the way. I believe this is the nationwide Platinum membership.
Fast forward now, I go to the gym 5-6x a week. Mostly to all the classes. But rotate between 3 local gyms (1 Ultra, 2 Super Sports). I mostly just go with me and my husband now, vs along with the 3rd person. So may only need 1 buddy pass.
Am I way over paying for annual membership or is this normal rate?
I know there is that $99 special running recently but a couple of my friends with legacy memberships are only able to go to a single location and not go to all the others that I frequent so I’m a little worried about downgrading.
Anyways. Just got sticker-shock and wondering if this is the new normal price for all gym access!
Edit: Did some recalculations including that annual renewal fee. So I’m about $45/month for me + 2 buddy passes (with adjustable buddies). Able to access ultra and super sports nationwide. With the amount of classes I take, that’s about $1.60-$2/per exercise class that I go to. I would def downgrade if I was only doing gym equipment and treadmills tho.
