Gym and Tonic Health Club Hay-on-Wye.
Induction, Prices, and Joining fee
 

Over the years we have learnt to keep it simple here folks!

So: membership is a one off fee of 75.00 * (current price, subject to change).
This includes the Induction (see below). An Induction is not – as so many people tend to think, an Insurance criteria, although it would definitely help in the event of some kind of claims – no, it is more that as a Personal Trainer/Gym Instructor, I want to know if you have contra-indications to exercise, and how we can bring out the best in you as a client (respecting any medical problems you may have). It is also handy to know what you want from the club - weight loss, toning, to be super-fit?!

You are not tied in to a year’s membership but we do operate a system that ensures we do not go bankrupt either:

We work on an appointments system, meaning you will always have good space to move around and make the most of your workout. You have the choice to either be on the ‘regulars list’ (pre-booked for as long as you want to), or book on an ad-hoc basis, whenever you wish.

Whether on the regulars list, or ad-hoc, if you miss a session, you pay! (unless you rebook on the same day, or enough notice is given). But at the same time this is a bonus: you don’t pay when you can’t make it at all (as in most multi-nationals, paying annually), you can go on holiday and not pay at all – the special appointments are still yours, AND you are automatically more likely to make that session. Really you can’t fail, but please note; it is not a good idea to go on the regulars list if you are unlikely to be able to stick to your sessions.

Senior citizens can come into the gym for £3.50 a session if at off peak hours. (or full price is paid)
Off-peak is £4.00 per session (12.30 – 5.00 p.m)
Peak times cost £5.00 – a session constitutes an hour. (morning and evenings).
So – a little more maybe than your municipal gyms, but we don’t leave you to get on with it on your own (what I call self-service gyms), you get a balanced programme, and constant attendance, with an exercise professional.

The Induction
Likewise, we feel our Induction is second to none. Again, it has evolved over years to include as much help for our clients as we can muster, for a mutually beneficial hour ½ or so.

We have a comprehensive Medical Questionnaire followed by static testing (Lung ventilation readings, weight, height, Body Mass Index, Visceral Body Fat levels, Blood Pressure readings, etc), but we also check, if you wish to lose weight, that you are being realistic as to what your ideal weight should be, and in what period of time it should be lost.

It is also important to identify why you have come through the door, and what you would like to achieve from a gym environment. If you have started exercise in the past and stopped – what stopped you? We can help you to adhere to a structured programme. Do you want leading, or are you happy just to come in and work ‘unaided’? We will respect either ideal as long as you are safe. And I bet even if you’ve been at it for years, we can give you the latest advanced training you didn’t know of yet! We’got some great hiddenequipment for you to try as you get more au fait with the programmes on offer.

Lastly, we run through the Welcome Pack and the different options on offer (regulars list, or not), and explain in full some of the expectations we have of each other.

As long as we don’t need to refer you to a Doctor (very, very rare), you are now a fully fledged member of the gym!

Please see our full list of Terms/prices. These are subject to change at any time.

** Occasionally, if we need to repeat static tests, a further fee of £10 - 20 may be incurred, dependant on subsequent medical complications if client not seen for a long period of time from first Induction
