No matter which gym you choose make sure you understand the contract terms (billing) and how easy it is to cancel. If/when you do cancel make sure you get it in writing as of the cancellation date (when the payments should stop). If they keep charging you after that date your bank can help you if its in writing and possibly recover some of the money. But if its just verbal they can't usually help you. The bank teller said Golds Gym is notorious for billing after someone has cancelled their membership and it seems like it's common for gyms in general
If you're looking for a cheap rate you might want to try searching on kijiji for someone wanting to transfer their membership. Depending on when they signed up their rate might be cheaper. There will be lots of people looking to unload their gym memberships 2-3 months after the new years rush
