Good to know
- Big-box headline prices exclude fees. Planet Fitness lists $15/mo “plus taxes & fees”; Crunch lists Base at $9.99/mo with an annual commitment or $15.99 month-to-month. Ask about enrollment and annual fees.
- Free is real: run clubs like Run Club Tampa and Irish 3.1 cost nothing, and the City of Tampa runs 12 public pools.
- Try before you buy: LA Fitness, Crunch and EōS all advertise a free pass or trial; Pure Barre studios advertise a free intro class.
- This list only uses prices we saw published. Many club pages don't show a price; elsewhere on the site those venues get an outlined “Est.” tier, never a made-up price.
