TweetHow much do you guys pay to go to the gym, or whatever it is you may do personally, what do you think is a fair price to workout in a gym with free weights, the basic lifting machines and cable machines, cardio equipment, and tanning beds.


I'm curious because sometime this year, if I think it could be worth the money and effort. I will most likely have the opportunity to open my own gym, I have a building available to rent so cheap I would almost rent it just for me to lift in. But I'd like to have ideas of whats fair prices in you guy's minds for membership's, since yall have more experience than anyone else I know about this stuff.


There ae two real gyms here:

One with very old equipment, but has a pool and walking track, various classes/zumbu all that crap.The hours sucks and are all over the place and its hard to get in there for anyone with much to do.

The other has brand new equipment and tanning beds but not enough of it. People wait in line for machines pretty much. Its supposed to be a 24 hour gym, but they find reasons to close for anything, like the employees dont want to work very hard.


If you guys have any kind of ideas or advice, lmk or pm me or anything. I've been thinking about this for a long time and think it could be possible now, with have a building and not much overhead after buying equipment.
