Join now & train in minutes with the Zap Fitness app.
$10… the equivalent of 2-3 cups of coffee (depending on how extra your order is - ¾ almond cap with extra chocolate anyone?), or half a salad at your local cafe. These things take 10 minutes to consume tops, before you never see the value for that hard-earned money again.
Or, you could spend that very same $10 on your weekly Zap Fitness gym membership… Which seems like better value to you? An investment into your physical and mental health and wellbeing, for which you’ll reap the benefits and rewards for months and years to come? Or a couple of cups of coffee, which bring you joy for a couple of minutes before you’re looking for the next pick-me-up?
We know what we’d rather…
After all, the benefits of joining a gym where you feel comfortable, confident and cared for are endless.

You know that feeling when you’re on a roll with your workouts, feeling great after sweating it out consistently and seeing results and the difference it makes to your life? That feeling is so motivating. It makes you want to eat more nutritious meals, spend time doing more wholesome activities which bring you a sense of wellbeing and fulfilment, and simply encourages you to develop healthier lifestyle habits which you can sustain long-term.

We’ve created an encouraging, supportive community at each one of our clubs, where you’ll have the chance to find yourself an accountability partner or fitness friend to push you and make sure you show up to each session! Why workout alone, when you can do so surrounded by awesome, motivating people who love fitness as much as you do?!
The verdict is in: joining a gym has so much to offer. Who wouldn’t want to get around the endless benefits it has to offer?
So now you know why you need to get involved in a gym, why should you choose Zap?
At Zap, we don’t hike up our prices to pay for fancy equipment you don’t want to use, or swanky gym set ups. We keep it real, and simple. That means you can rest assured you’ll only ever pay for what you WANT - and that is good-quality kit, a positive vibe and community, and the ability to workout in ways you love as often as you like. What more do you need… Nothing? We agree. We’re committed to keeping it real, and passing on the cost savings to our members!
Zap Fitness is going from strength to strength, and along the way we’ve opened the doors to more than 85+ clubs across the country. As a Zap member, you can access every single one of them! Whether you want to change up your weekly routine and try out a few different locations, or you’re headed on holiday and don’t want to miss your regular training sessions, we’ve got you covered! There are no extras or costs involved, we just want to make your training experience as convenient and easy as possible.
In that vein, our gyms are open and available to you 24/7, to use as you please. We don’t believe in limiting the days or hours you can use the gym to pursue a healthier, happier you - we want to give you as much opportunity as possible to get your sweat on at times that suit YOU!
Do we need to say more… With memberships starting at such ridiculously low prices, that’s less than half the cost of your morning cuppa. You won’t find that elsewhere…
At Zap, our members are our priority. So we adapt to YOU, rather than the other way round. Heading off on holiday? (You lucky thing!) Injured? Need to take a break? No dramas! Pause your membership whenever you need, then dive back into your routine when you’re ready! No ifs, buts, or questions asked!
We’ve all made the grave mistake of joining a gym without reading the fine print, only to find ourselves trapped in an expensive contract for months (or even years!) on end. It’s not somewhere you want to find yourself… So at Zap, we’ve made long-term commitments a thing of the past! There are no hidden T&Cs, no traps waiting for you to fall into, we’re here to support you for as long as you want to stay with us, and then wave goodbye whenever it’s time for you to leave (though we daresay we doubt you’ll ever want to!).
Now you know all about the upsides of joining us in the gym, what about the risks of not joining?
If you’re not regularly exercising, and you haven’t developed a solid workout routine you’re able to stick to, you’re putting your health and your body at risk. People who don’t exercise regularly have a significantly higher risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis, obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, stroke and some cancers, among other conditions. And yet more than 1 in 2 Australian adults don’t do enough physical activity during a week. 59% of women were insufficiently active, compared to 50% of men. Don’t be one of them! Give yourself the best chance at a healthy and happy, long-lived life, and reduce your risk of health issues and disease by joining a gym and committing to regular workouts. Your body and mind will thank you for it.
Insurance premiums, hospital bills, physio visits to address pains stemming from your sedentary lifestyle, chiro appointments, you name it. When you’re not working out, your health suffers as a result. And we’re not just talking short-term either. Research by the New York Times found people saved between $800-$1800+ each year on health care expenses in retirement if they’d regularly exercised in the years prior. So when you think about it, spending just $10 per week on a gym membership you’ll use time and time again saves you exponential amounts of money in the long run - not to mention the pain, worry and health consequences it saves you from too!
Not only does hitting the gym improve your physical health, but it also does wonders for your mental wellbeing. Those who don’t do sufficient physical activity are much more likely to suffer from depression, anxiety, and other forms of mental illness, and have a harder time managing symptoms of these conditions.[Text Wrapping Break]In fact, exercise has endless benefits for your mind and wellbeing. It physically changes chemicals in your brain, including serotonin, stress hormones, and endorphins, which largely influence your happiness, pleasure and feelings of general wellbeing. It improves your self-esteem and promotes feelings of reward and accomplishment - especially when you’re smashing your goals and sticking to a regular gym schedule. It also offers a chance to connect with others, improve your energy levels, and sweat out any frustrations you’re experiencing in day-to-day life.[Text Wrapping Break]Not to mention its impact on sleep… Exercise hugely improves your sleep. Research found 76-83% of people who engaged in regular exercise experienced good sleep quality, compared to just 56% among those who didn’t move their bodies often. Given sleep supports mental health, immune function, metabolism, hunger levels, stress levels and happiness, this is a hugely important factor to consider![Text Wrapping Break]Plus, exercise has also been shown to improve concentration and focus throughout the day, when done regularly. So the verdict is in: it’s a miracle worker for your mind! And not getting enough exercise can have terrible consequences for your brain health, cognitive function, and mental wellbeing.
There’s no denying it: joining us at your nearest Zap Fitness gym, and committing to a regular exercise routine will do wonders for your mental and physical health. It’s an investment into your wellbeing which will reward you for years to come. Ready to take the leap and join a community of like-minded workout warriors?
