How Choose a Health Club

When shopping for health clubs consider the following:

• Location
• Try Before You Buy
• Make Sure They Have What You Want
• Member Profile
• Staff
• Costs and Contracts

Some health clubs have a one-time initiation fee and require purchasing a minimum of three months up front. Depending on your budget, you may want to find a club that allows you to go on a month-to-month basis. In addition, find out if the health club debits the funds directly out of your Visa or checking account. This can make it easier to pay membership fees but make sure that it's easy to cancel if you decide you don't like the club. Be sure you read the contract before you sign so you're not "locked" into paying even if you move out of town or change health clubs.
