Your local YMCA

Does anyone go to the YMCA? My friends from Norman work out at their's every morning. I know the one here in Moore is brand new and very nice. I didn't know they figure your membership cost by your monthly income and your once price includes all of the classes, the gym, sports for your kids, and etc. I am pretty impressed by that and am thinking of joining the one here on 119th & May. Any good or bad comments about your local YMCA... or local gym in that matter?

figure your membership cost by your monthly income

Say What? Not here in OKC. We have a family membership at the published rate of about $56. I'd tell them where to stick it if they asked for my family income amount.

Maybe that is for lower income - but even then I gotta say no way. Everyone should pay the same for the same services.

Is that a set amount for a certain # of members? As in, my husband and I should be cheaper right?!

My $56 bucks gets my wife, son and I.

There isn't a reasonably close one in Yukon or I'd go there

I work out at the Y. I think it's 56 for my wife and I - no kids. So, extra family members must be included. It's been a few years since we've looked at rates. Most of them keep the equipment up to date, so it works for me.

I only belong to the Y because it is downtown (convenience), they keep it pretty clean, lots of equipment and I love the classes.

My biggest gripes though are; the cost - you never buy-in like I could with my All American membership. You just keep paying forever. No tanning. The downtown location gets packed before and after work. No raquetball (sp) (which is crazy for a downtown location not to have) and the basket ball courts are often taken up with kids activities.

I wish they were 24-hours.
