How much do you pay your gym?

[cminn]

Do you pay a flat rate? If so how much?

Do you pay/get a percentage? If so how much?

To get it started, I pay 50%.

150 dollar start up fee, then 35 dollars a month-la fitness

I don't think he means to be a member, but to use the gym for personal training....but maybe that's what you pay i dunno lol.

Unless they're giving you a really strong stream of leads, that sounds like a rape - You got to find a way to do better than that -

My thoughts too. I've gotten every one of my clients.

holy **** 50%? Thats more than most gyms take from the trainers that they employ

I pay $300 a month flat rate at Gold's

[mydamnself]

At ind. training gyms I've paid $12-$20. Seems like $20 is the average in the bay area, CA. Check out corporations like google, cisco, etc. I've done a couple of these where the gym is open to anyone because they don't provide trainers. I walk in, train a client, pocket $100, pay the gym nothing, leave.
If you think for a second you're getting ripped off, you are.

Yeah, these are good - so are private residential gyms - like in a condo -

You should even go as far as to move into one of these places - that's what I did - location taken care of - (guest passes are 15 bucks, which I split with the client) - otherwise train them outdoors, where you keep everything - use a training style that's not dependent on weights - make it a selling point - that's what I do:

Wow! Is that a flat rate or a percentage of total revenue?

I have my own gym. I'm independent

Holy ****!!..... thats sounds harsh!!

I get a basic salary - about $28,000 in Yank terms (Im in London) - and on top can do 20 hours of PT inside (get about $23 per) my contracted hours and as many as I like outside (get about $35 per). If Im game theres a bit of extra cash for doing classes as well.

30% of revenue. It used to be nothing, but I guess the owners wanted to start making a little more money.

well then ignore that # for those wondering what it costs to freelance out of a gym because that is your lease payment lol

[alikaeos]

at ballys I used to be $82 a session and I would get paid $47 an hour if I trained more than 50 hours in a 2 week period. $45 an hour if between 25-49 hours or $43 if under 25.

I opened up my own private gym with one partner and our rent is 5,500 a month plus a lot of other expenses.

$300 a month to work in a Golds seemes like the best deal I saw on the board so far.

[djaeger3]

my clients play 99$ per and i get 55% split at life time fitness

Man I wish there were more Lifetimes around, that gym is amazing
