How much does the average gym membership cost in Australia?

Gym memberships in Australia range from $15-20/week for budget gyms (like Jetts, Plus Fitness), $20-35/week for mid-range gyms (Fitness First, Anytime Fitness), and $35-60+/week for premium gyms (F45, Equinox).

How often should I go to the gym to make it worthwhile?

To get good value from a gym membership, aim for at least 3 visits per week (12-13 per month). This typically brings your cost per visit under $5 for most memberships. Going less than 8 times per month usually means you're overpaying.
