Gym membership in Singapore runs from $2.50 a visit to a few hundred dollars a month — and the price gap says far more about pools, classes and recovery rooms than about whether you'll actually turn up. The honest truth is that the best gym for most people is the one closest to home or the office, at a price they won't resent when they skip a fortnight.
We compared the five gym memberships Singaporeans ask about most — ActiveSG, Anytime Fitness, True Fitness, Fitness First and Virgin Active — checking every rate, outlet count and promotion against each gym's own website in July 2026.

ActiveSG's fuller pass menu is worth knowing: unrestricted MyActiveGYM access is $30/month, $160 for six months or $300 a year for adults, and $18/month, $95 for six months or $180 a year for students and seniors. The off-peak pass (Mon–Fri, opening until 4pm) is $15/month or $80 a year for adults. Swimming is a separate MyActiveSWIM pass at $10/month for adults.
How to choose the right gym for you
- By how often you'll go — once or twice a week, ActiveSG's $2.50 pay-per-entry beats any membership; four or more times a week, a monthly pass pays for itself.
- By location — this decides whether you actually go. Anytime Fitness has around 160 outlets, so there's usually one near home and another near work.
- By hours — shift workers and very early or late trainers should start with Anytime Fitness, the only one of the five on a true 24/7 key-fob model.
- By classes — if a timetable is what gets you moving, True Fitness (aerobics, yoga and pilates matwork, dance, spinning) and Fitness First are built around them.
- By facilities — pools, hydrotherapy spa, sleep pods, ice and steam rooms and cold plunge tubs are Virgin Active territory; ActiveSG has pools too, just at a separate $10/month pass.
How to get the best price
- Never sign on your first visit. Every chain here runs joining promotions; Fitness First's current one gives up to 30 days free if you join before 31 Jul 2026, and Virgin Active is at 50% off the first 8 weeks with no joining fee.
- Use the free trials. Anytime Fitness, True Fitness and Virgin Active all offer one — the same brand can feel very different between branches, especially in a franchise.
- Ask for the joining fee to be waived, and get the full commitment period and freeze policy in writing before you sign.
- Check the low-commitment routes first — Fitness First's FITPASS has no monthly fees or commitment period and online sign-ups carry a 7-day money-back guarantee, while ActiveSG has no contract at all.
- Stack the corporate and insurer discounts you may already have; several employers and insurance plans carry gym tie-ups worth checking before you pay retail.
Rates, promotions, outlet counts and contract terms change often and can be club-specific — always confirm on the gym's own website before you sign anything.
