    i dont think there have been any polls like this recently. i wanted to get a feel of how much people pay per month. feel free to comment on what equipment you have and anything else you want to say about your gym!

    i have added a poll to this, split between university gyms and commercial gyms (i know university gyms are mainly cheaper). please choose the options which apply to you (because i know that some people might use university gyms during term time and commercial gyms during holiday time).

    note: please work out the monthly rate if you dont pay monthly. eg. if you pay £240 for a year, you pay £20 per month

    I pay £16.99/month at PureGym. It doesn't necessarily have all the bells and whistles, but has everything you'd need for a decent workout.

    I used to pay £40/month which was the student rate. I cancelled my membership when I realised I was being well and truly ripped off

    I paid £100 for the year at my uni gym. Will be something like £22/month when I graduate. It's as good a gym as you can ask for. My work also has a gym which is £15 joining fee then £2 a session. It's a bit rubbish for weights but it's fine for a wee bit cardio or circuits

    I'm really happy with mine. I pay £27.95 a month, which is the student rate, and includes gym, swimming and classes. I've got everything I need, and more.

    I'm forced to go to David Lloyds as it's the only gym close to me with a squat rack, so I pay around £46/month. But then again, it's facilities as much better than other gyms with a lot more equipment and space compared to a £20/month gym.

    Uni gym is £150 for the year, for the 3 months I'm back I've found my local leisure centre are doing a student deal where you get 3 months unlimited for £99.Everywhere's expensive round my home town though, I used to pay £70 per month for David Lloyd.

    £30 for my gym which includes all classes and swimming so I think it's a fairly good deal as the other ones in the town seem to be about £27 and none of them have a pool.

    I can't for the sake of humanity understand how some people manage to pay over 50 pounds a month for gym?

    I mean, how special could those gyms possibly be?

    As far as I'm concerned, one could definitely get the same result by going to a gym that offers 15-20 pounds.
