Here's what we love about Chuze Fitness

You might feel like your gym membership is worth more than what you’re paying. That's how impressive Chuze’s value really is. While they didn’t create the HVLP (high-value-low-price) gym concept, they are certainly setting the standard in this arena.

  • A wide range of facilities can be found at most of their locations. We particularly appreciate their medium to large gyms, averaging around 32,280 square feet.

  • Chuze prioritizes maintaining clean, modern, and well-kept gym facilities. This commitment is reinforced by feedback from our industry contacts as well as extensive analysis of their numerous ratings and reviews.

  • Exciting news from Chuze! The fitness brand is expanding eastward by acquiring 16 Bailey's locations in Jacksonville, Florida. This means that fitness enthusiasts in the area will soon be able to enjoy the exceptional Chuze experience along the Atlantic coast. In the coming years, we look forward to seeing these clubs updated and transformed to meet Chuze's high standards.

Here are the things we wish Chuze Fitness would improve

Chuze Fitness provides a vast array of amenities and services. However, there are still a few additional offerings we would love to see from this well-regarded gym franchise.

  • Chuze clubs are popping up nationwide! It's true—they should expand their reach across the entire country. (As of April 2023, they’re making their way to Jacksonville, Florida!)

  • A greater number of their facilities feature basketball courts. However, only 12% of their gyms—specifically 7 locations—offer this amenity.

  • Only 19 Chuze locations feature Olympic lifting stations, which seems like a small number! The remaining 68% of gyms could definitely benefit from this sought-after amenity.

How much does it cost to join Chuze Fitness?

Chuze Fitness offers highly competitive pricing options that cater to your wellness journey. Here’s what you can anticipate: 

  • "Basic" membership for $9.99 to $15.99/month grants access to one gym. It includes essential workout equipment like cardio machines, strength training devices, and weights, with many locations featuring a functional turf zone. This membership comes with a 12-month commitment; however, you can opt for a month-to-month plan for an additional $4. 
  • "Premium" membership ranges from $24.99 to $26.99/month and provides access to any gym. Along with the Basic amenities, most locations offer unlimited group fitness classes, tanning, HydroMassage, sauna, steam rooms, and cycling. Certain clubs, such as those in Denver and El Paso, also feature pools and hot tubs. 
  • "More" membership priced at $29.99 to $32.99/month allows access to all gyms, plus unlimited team training sessions, body scans, and the ability to bring unlimited guests who can utilize Basic services. 
  • "Chuze Max" membership, between $29.99 to $49.99/month, encompasses all previous benefits, along with an unrestricted Kids Club. Note that this membership may not be available at all locations. 

An annual fee of $49.99 is applied, charged 45 days after your initial registration, which remains consistent across all gyms we've researched. Interestingly, enrollment fees may be $0, likely due to a nationwide promotion we encountered; we didn't observe any charges for this. During the sign-up process, however, you must pay your first month’s dues in full, as it is not prorated. 

For those in Georgia and Florida (near Jacksonville), Chuze Fitness has acquired a chain named Bailey's in April 2023. They’ve begun updating those gyms and their website, streamlining pricing in the process. The structures of these gyms are similar to the original Chuze clubs. For the Jacksonville Beach location:

  • "Premium Baileys" at $24.99/month covers a single club.
  • "More Baileys" at $34.99/month provides access to all locations, plus team training, tanning, and hydromassage.
  • "Max Baileys" for $49.99/month grants access to all clubs along with unlimited guest privileges and a Kids Club. 

All former Bailey's locations are open 24/7, equipped with WiFi, Olympic free weights, group fitness classes, and indoor cycling options. 

Please note, our data is current as of October 2023.

  • The annual fee for Chuze is set at $49.99, which will be billed to you 45 days following your initial registration.
  • At Chuze, we noticed that there were absolutely no enrollment fees required—all of them were marked at $0. It seems we hit the jackpot by checking during a nationwide promotion!
