Is The Garage Gym Worth the Investment?

Is The Garage Gym Worth the Investment?

A $199/month membership is not something we take lightly.

So before you apply, it's worth asking the question honestly.

Is it worth it?

Well, that’s up to you.

What the investment is for:

We’re building the Anti Big Box Gym - to avoid a lot of the headache we’re sure you’ve experienced at other facilities. 

Most gyms:

• Painfully crowded.
• Not clean / tidy.
• Little to no sense of community.

The Garage Gym:

• Limited membership (won’t be crowded).
• 2x a week professional cleaning (will be clean).
• 3x a week TGG mom to come and tidy (will be really clean).
• An application process (will only have good people). 

We limit memberships not to be cool, but to preserve the quality of the experience. 

No one likes an overly crowded gym… so we decided not to have one.

TGG Mom and our cleaning crew work diligently hand in hand to ensure The Garage is clean, stocked, and tidy every time you walk in.

The application process and initial call with our Onboarding Officer ensures all members are good people with good intentions.

What you're not paying for

Lots of stuff.

Group classes, smoothie bars, pilates, childcare, a pool, a bar…

all of those are great, if you want them. 

We’ve found most people just want a great gym to go to that’s clean, not crowded, and open when they want to go.

Not fight for parking, pay for things they don’t actually use, or get a martini at the gym ???

Bonus points that there’s a great community of individuals, fun events, and opportunities to row outside of the gym…

but at the end of the day, The Garage Gym is:

• Unlimited 24/7 facility access
• Garage Gym Programming
• Invites to all events

As a member you have a key on your phone used to open the door when it’s most convenient.

Garage Gym Programming helps, if you’d like, to structure your training to best fit your schedule and goals. 

Events are free - unless for charity - and are created so you leave better because you showed up. 

The time question

This one doesn't show up on a pricing page… but it's worth thinking about.

If a crowded gym costs you 20 minutes of waiting per session and you train four times a week, that's over an hour and a half a week. 

Six hours a month. 

Time spent standing around and adjusting your workout based on what's available.

Booooooooooooo

The Garage Gym is quite literally - buying your time back.

No fighting for parking, waiting for equipment, or walking up 2 flights of stairs to an oversized locker room. 

Buzz into the facility when you want, train how you want, head on home.

The honest version of who this is for:

The Garage Gym tends to work well for people who value their time, the people they surround themselves with, and want to pursue a better version of themselves. 

The Garage Gym tends NOT to be the right fit for people who want group classes, a bunch of stuff, or an environment where they can be content with status quo.

The Garage Gym

Our mission is to help our people in the pursuit of the 100% version of themselves.

Physically, mentally, socially - we believe there is a version of you inside you desperate to get out - & we want to help you bring them to life. 

If you’re committed to the best version of yourself, we’d love to meet you. 

If you’re committed to the best version of yourself, but are looking for a different gym experience, we’d still love to meet you (and help refer you somewhere else)
