- The page lists 576 San Antonio gyms, but says only 127 have a price checked on the gym’s own website.
Field notes
The site’s stated method is to check a gym’s own website—or the chain’s page for a specific club—and publish a number only when it appears there word for word. Its San Antonio page lists 576 gyms, while 127 have a price checked on their own website; it reports a $600 median first-year cost, checked September 2026. The page also links to a corrections policy, data sources, and a form for gyms to correct a listing.
