Each Anytime Fitness club is independently owned, so here is what the chain actually publishes and how to handle your own club's agreement.
If you've been offered Anytime Fitness personal training, or you're paying for it now and want out, this page lays out what the chain publishes about cost, contracts and cancelling. It's written by HipTrain. We run live 1-on-1 training over video, from about $14 a session, so count us as one of your other options and read with that in mind. Everything we say about Anytime Fitness is drawn from anytimefitness.com, linked at the bottom.
Anytime Fitness doesn't publish a personal training price. Its FAQ says the cost "is dependent on both location and training type," and elsewhere notes that each club is independently owned and sets its own fees. The chain lists 1:1 personal training among its coaching services but says "Coaching services vary based on location. Additional fees for services may apply." Ask your club whether training is included or costs extra. Anytime Fitness doesn't publish training cancellation terms; its FAQ says membership cancellation policies, costs and fees are in each location's membership agreement, so ask your club for your training agreement and follow the method it lists.
There's no national rate card. The chain's FAQ answers "What is the cost of a personal trainer?" with one line about location and training type, then sends you to your local gym. Elsewhere, the FAQ says "Each of our locations are independently owned and operated," and that "Club dues, monthly fees and any additional charges are specific to each independently owned gym." In practice, two clubs a few miles apart can charge different amounts for the same thing.
Here's what the chain's own pages do say:
The chain lists a few ways to work with a coach. One-on-one personal training is where "you and your AF Coach will create a customized workout program with your specific goals and health considerations in mind." Small-group training mixes individual guidance with training alongside others. And there's the Anytime Fitness App, which the chain pitches as "like having a Coach in your pocket." Which of these your club offers, and what each costs, is up to that club.
As a general yardstick, and not an Anytime Fitness figure, Bark's latest U.S. data puts the average personal trainer at $50 to $90 a session. For how that breaks down by city and setting, see our personal trainer cost guide.
Because each club is its own business, Anytime Fitness doesn't publish one national personal training agreement. We couldn't find public terms on how long a training contract lasts, whether it renews automatically or what happens to sessions you don't use. Those rules live in the paperwork your club hands you.
What the chain does publish is about membership, and it points the same way. Its FAQ says "All cancellation policies are outlined in the membership agreement for each location," and that the agreement "covers the cost to cancel, how to cancel and more information on any additional termination fees." It also says some gyms offer 6, 12 and 18-month memberships, so terms can include a fixed length.
The membership page lists 1:1 personal training among the coaching services of what it calls a "coaching-centered gym," then adds that "Additional fees for services may apply." The training page says "Additional fees for access to certain amenities and services may apply." So the chain doesn't say whether training at your club is included or costs extra, or whether it goes on the same agreement as your membership or a separate one. Ask the club directly, and get the answer on paper.
A few other points from the FAQ that matter if you're weighing a training deal:
The chain doesn't publish a cancellation method for training. These steps build a paper trail while you follow your club's agreement:
Keep your agreement, your letter, the mail receipt or signed copy, and any emails from the club in one folder. Your state may give you extra rights; check your state attorney general's consumer page.
If your club charges for training on top of your dues, it can easily become the bigger line on your statement. If the trainer is what keeps you going but the cost is hard to carry, a live online coach is one way to keep that accountability for less. With HipTrain, you meet the same certified coach on video at a booked time, from home, with no equipment needed.
There are good reasons to stay with your club trainer. If you want someone beside you spotting a heavy squat, showing you the gym's machines, or using the barbells and racks you can't fit at home, an in-person coach makes more sense. If you already have a trainer you trust at a price you're fine with, there's no reason to switch. HipTrain is also small, with a handful of featured coaches and far fewer reviews than the big apps, and you have to show up on camera at your booked time. Our online vs in-person trainer comparison and our Planet Fitness comparison cover similar choices.
The chain doesn't say. Its FAQ says the price depends on location and training type, and each club is independently owned, so ask your club for its rates in writing before you commit.
It depends on your club. The membership page lists 1:1 personal training among its coaching services, but says coaching services vary by location and "Additional fees for services may apply." Ask your club whether training is included or costs extra. New customers can get a free fitness consultation with an Evolt body scan at participating clubs.
Anytime Fitness doesn't publish training cancellation terms. Its FAQ says membership cancellation policies, costs and fees are in each location's membership agreement, so ask your club for your training agreement, send a dated, written notice by the method it lists and keep proof.
The FAQ sends account changes like freezes to your home club, and each gym is independently owned, so start with your home club unless your paperwork says otherwise.
