All three add an annual fee of $49 to $59.99, and Planet Fitness has no heavy free weights. If you want a real gym in Little Havana you'll keep showing up to, here's where Gallo 8 wins:
- ✓Flat $37/month: no annual fee, no signup fee, no processing fee.
- ✓No contract, ever. The cheapest chain rates (Crunch's $9.99 Base, YouFit's Basic) need a 12-month commitment.
- ✓Real free weights on two full floors. Planet Fitness limits heavy free weights.
- ✓Bilingual coaches, free parking, free coffee, and a smoothie and protein bar on-site, included, not upsold.
- ✓Less than LA Fitness in year one once its fees land ($444 vs $468 to $489), and a fraction of Orangetheory, Club Studio or Equinox.
