    • Currently looking to leave AF, I have a foundation membership so prices are not supposed to ever increase, but they conveniently ignore that. Their latest increase from October is 20%.

      • Typical gym business practices

    Admin fees ($49) are such a scam (all gyms). How is entering information into a web form equal to 2 weeks of working out? Please.

      It’s an upfront commission.

      • +7

        Then call it commission, not admin fees

          I’m not in charge here. Sounds like you need to speak to the manager of gym nomenclature.

      Am I the only one who feels strongly that gyms are such scummy and scammy businesses?

      Always with the “admin fees”, “keycard fee”, “transaction fee”, “annual equipment improvement fee” etc etc. And try to rope you in with contracts, and then make it very difficult for you to leave.

      Hear stories of people leaving then continue to be charged, or request the gym to “pause their contract for a few weeks” as per their own policies, then proceeds to continue to charge. Or when they try to cancel the manager makes up all sorts of excuses, or make themselves unavailable or whatnot.

      I worked in Recreation Centre mangement for 16 when Fitness First were first starting up. I managed a local government leisure centre close to a new FF centre, initially we were concerned that they might affect our membership numbers. This wasn't the case, when customers compared facilities, quality and qualifications of staff and that we didnt have high pressure sales staff, we found that memberships actually increased.
      Fitness First was and is still considered a poor reflection on the industry, motivated more by scamming money rather than promoting health and fitness.

      • Everything , everywhere no matter what reasons are given , is about money.
        There are no exceptions.

  • Fitness first is so overpriced. Left them 7 years ago because the fees increased so often. Joined on a founders deal and by the time I left was paying 400% more. Since then so many clubs have been sold off to competitors because they tried to expand too aggressively. Save your money and don’t waste your time with FF.

    • What gym do you suggest then.

      • +1

        I personally switched to goodlife. Pay $13/week can access any gym and the fees haven’t increased once in 7 years but depending on your location there may be better deals. For example a planet fitness opened in my area earlier this year and were charging introduction offer of $5/week for home memberships and $10/week for passport memberships.

    Paying $9 a week at Crunch, no lock in contract and no joining or leaving fees.
    There is a one time annual fee but this equates to around 50c per week.

    Could probably have gotten a better deal but the location is super convenient and I can leave/pause when I want.

    Lmao who negged me by all means pay $40 a week I ain't stopping ya 😂😂

    FF used to be half decent if you were into doing a lot of classes. But they basically self-destructed those as a result of COVID. For example, all one-hour classes were cut back to 45 minutes, and were never restored even after basically everything else in society had gone back to normal. Les Mills classes have always been available in a one-hour format on demand, so why bother going back to a bricks and mortar gym?

    • 45 minutes is the new norm and a lot of people love that new time table rather than dragging for 1 hour, inc myself. F45 was successful because of that period.

      Les Mills on demand doesn't have full a body jam class and you can only do it at the brick and mortar class.

  • I referred my friend to join FF 2 weeks ago. So I asked the staff if my friend can get a free bag or a towel to start her new membership. The staff said it’s only for the referral person, then I said it means I can get one for my friend as I’m her referral. Then she said, you need to refer 10 ppl to get it. Well…..at that time, I really wanted to tell my friend to cancel her membership but I know I shouldn’t upset my friend just because of a cheap quality bag

      You may not have that friend for too much longer 😛

      • I’ll get her a nice bag for keeping this friendship

    I pay $8 a week with no contract at crunch and also trialled fitness first for 5 days.
    Crunch is actually better. Also, fitness first spammed me when I didn't sign up after the trial.

    • I roll my eyes every time my buddies try to convince me to go to their gym for a “no commitment” free 1 week trial.

      Rock up and they start by asking for your phone number, email, address, and take your photo.

      • My house mate once asked to come train with me as my pass had a bring a friend free anytime, during staffed hours. We went and the a**hole pt/salesperson wouldn’t let her leave until he got number, email, what gym she’s with etc.

    • crunch is absolute rubbish.

  • +1

    Expensive but I like Virgin Active as they have lots of classes.

  • Fitness First has a bad reputation for being difficult to cancel your membership.
