Your fitness questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

The price of fitness classes varies significantly depending on the class type and the gym or studio. Prices for group classes at popular gyms and studios include:

  • Planet Fitness costs $10 to $25 per month and includes unlimited access to small group classes.
  • Anytime Fitness costs $43 to $50 per month and includes unlimited access to small group classes.
  • Orangetheory Fitness costs $15 to $20 per class or $179 per month for unlimited classes.
  • Pure Barre costs $17 to $25 per class or $199 per month for unlimited classes.
  • CrossFit costs $20 to $25 per drop-in class or $150 to $200 per monthfor unlimited classes.
  • Zumba costs $59 per month for unlimited classes or $10 to $25 per class.
  • YMCA membership costs $52 to $60 per month for one adult or $86 to $119 per month for a family and includes unlimited access to a wide variety of fitness classes.

Online fitness classes cost $10 to $50 per month on average. The monthly subscription fee typically gives you unlimited access to prerecorded classes available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Some subscriptions, like Peloton, also include online access to interactive live-streamed classes.

You can only use your Health Savings Account (HSA) to pay for fitness classes if your physician or nurse practitioner prescribes an exercise regimen for a specific medical condition.

Your physician must write a letter of medical necessity (LMN) confirming the classes are intended to treat or prevent a medical condition, and you must provide a copy of the letter to the IRS when filing your taxes. The LMN is typically good for one year from the date it's signed. However, your physician may recommend a shorter duration.

Yes, Planet Fitness and Anytime Fitness both offer group fitness classes led by certified personal trainers. Classes at both gyms are limited to small groups to allow the trainer to provide direct coaching as needed. Most franchise locations offer these classes 10 to 14 times per day, and members can attend unlimited classes.

Group fitness classes are available in a wide variety of styles, making it easy to find one that best suits your needs. Popular class options include:

  • Cardio
  • Cycling / spinning
  • Dance
  • Kickboxing
  • Pilates
  • Yoga
  • CrossFit
  • Ballet / barre
  • Zumba
  • Water fitness
  • Strength training, including bodyweight workouts and weightlifting classes

When choosing a fitness class, first decide on your goals for the class. Are you looking to improve your cardio health, strength, endurance, mobility, or all of the above? Once you have an idea of your goals in mind, follow these tips:

  • Check out the classes available in your area to see which style most appeals to you.
  • Ask for recommendations from friends, family, and your medical provider.
  • Read the class and instructor reviews on Lessons and Google.
  • Get a day pass or take a free trial class at the gym or studio.
  • Don't sign a monthly or annual contract until you've taken a free class.

When evaluating a gym or fitness studio, ask these questions to help you find the best fitness class for you:

  • What is the class schedule?
  • Do you charge by the class or by the month?
  • How many classes per month does the membership plan include?
  • Do you require members to subscribe for a minimum number of months or an annual plan?
  • Do you offer a free trial class or day pass?
  • Are your class instructors also certified personal trainers?
  • How many people are in a typical class?
  • Are there any rules about what to wear to the class?
  • Will I need to bring any equipment, like a yoga mat or towel?

I recently returned from a trip to Alaska. It was a rare opportunity to travel with my daughter and son-in-law. Due to my training with Michael Brooks, I was able to fully participate in all of our adventures and enjoy some beautiful hikes. I now have some exceptional memories and plan to continue my training with Michael. We all know regular exercise has many benefits. I take pleasure in the boost of energy it provides and a strengthened core. Thanks, Michael! -Kay Donnellan

Agoge is a great gym! It is intelligently laid out to provide ample space for a variety of training options. There is a rig, ropes for climbing, plus your usual suspects expected in any well equipped strength gym, racks, good quality plates (and plenty of them), dumb bells, etc. It is the additional hard-core strongman equipment, as well as Dave's expert coaching and obvious passion for safe progressive training that really sets this gym apart though. People brand new to exercise, crossfit athletes, power lifters, novice lifters, and folks seeking expert training and fitness will find a home at Agoge.
