Exercise classes or cheap gyms?

[Maryeliza]

I've been in the city for about 3 months now... and I am getting fat! Im currently living near Corrientes / Callao area. I need to find a gym that is reasonably priced. The quotes I have had so far are $400 and $450 pesos per month. You would not even pay that much in England for a decent gym!
If anyone knows of any gyms near me, or classes of Pilates or Spinning please write...

Cheers!

Cheap and decent are probably two different gyms.

I am a member of a gym called carribean gym for 140 pesos a month. On Uriburu between Sante Fe and Marcelo T. No frills, just basic equipment and classes.

There is a thread about this... some of the gyms that are 400+ a month are so if you are paying for just one month and in cash - if you sign up for several months and with credit card, the price drops significantly.

Gyms at home are similar -- they want you on auto-payment and paying for just one month at a time is really much more expensive.

Cheers G - sounds good to me. Do they have a website - and are there many females??

I can't find a website for them, they really are basic, but they do not push you for long term membership like the other ones. Simply pay once a month.

I would say more females than males especially in the classes.

Go by and look at it and pick up a schedule for classes. Uriburu 1012

Good luck.

No, there are several Uriburu calles, If you use the full name you will get the correct map.
