For two decades, Snap Fitness has endeavored to make fitness more accessible to local communities. Officially launching in 2003, the company started off as a quick and convenient gym option, with a more affordable model compared to other concepts in the market. Since its inception, Snap Fitness has evolved to match the changing needs of the gym industry. Overall, Snap Fitness continues to prioritize their values of being inclusive and supportive, opening their doors to all different levels of fitness backgrounds and abilities.
Around the globe, there are more than 1,000 Snap Fitness locations, which support more than 1 million members in 18 countries. Members are allowed to visit any Snap Fitness location, including those in the US and gyms located in the UK, Ireland, Spain, the Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Canada, and Hong Kong.
As shared by a company representative, Snap Fitness has a mission to create meaningful experiences that support both physical and mental wellness for members, franchisees, and employees. Placing an emphasis on inclusion, Snap Fitness gyms strive to break down barriers by focusing on making it easy to join, putting an emphasis on positivity, and offering educational content through its Snap Fitness app.
How Much Does Snap Fitness Cost?
For the nitty gritty, every Snap Fitness gym offers a variety of membership options, including month-to-month programs, various prepaid options, and family memberships. Exact fees vary by the location of the gym, including the overall region. The services and amenities offered also depend on each gym location. Monthly membership fees range from approximately $34.95 to $59.95 for a single membership, and $54.95 to $84.95 for joint or family membership types, according to a Snap Fitness representative.
If you’re wondering about an initiation fee, upfront fees depend on each location and are under the discretion of the individual gym, per a Snap Fitness representative. Most gyms include an upfront fee (which varies from no fee at all to approximately $80) that includes a 24/7 door access card and a gym induction.
Snap Fitness Discounts and Free Passes
Each Snap Fitness gym may offer unique discounts to serve their community, and the current available discounts tend to vary by location. Discounted membership options may be available for certain groups, such as veterans, health-care workers, and/or educators. Depending on your health insurance provider, there may be a discounted rate available to join Snap Fitness as a member.
Most Snap Fitness gyms allow for a free trial pass to sample the gym for yourself, ranging from single-day to one-week passes. Free trial passes to Snap Fitness gyms are typically found directly on their website.
Additional Price Considerations For Snap Fitness
Many Snap Fitness clubs have additional costs to consider, such as one-on-one personal training sessions and group training options. Some locations are also in the process of trialing recovery zones. Snap Fitness gyms also provide group fitness options, including in-person and virtual classes. Classes are designed for a variety of levels, and include high intensity interval training (HIIT), cycling, boxing workouts, full-body or core strength, and recovery.
What to Know About the Snap Fitness App
Available for free to Snap Fitness members, the Snap Fitness app helps manage your membership and more. Snap Fitness members can use the app to work toward fitness goals by participating in challenges, following fitness programs, taking virtual workout classes, creating customized workout templates, and reserving group fitness classes. The Snap Fitness app acts as your virtual fitness buddy throughout your wellness journey, according to a Snap Fitness representative, who adds that the Snap Fitness app tracks and celebrates your milestones.
Myzone Heart Rate Training and the Apple Watch Program
Snap Fitness currently has a partnership with Myzone, a heart rate monitor that responds to effort levels rather than ability. Using a heart rate monitor such as Myzone allows for zone tracking during a workout, and also gives members a sense of friendly competition with others. It allows you to track your heart rate with easy-to-follow color codes, and it can also be displayed on a monitor in the gym in real time.
Finally, Snap Fitness offers an integration and special program with Apple. For members who use an Apple Watch regularly, they can earn membership credits upon check-in through the Earn with Apple Watch program. The best part? These membership credits can be applied toward future membership dues in the Snap Fitness app.
