Here's what we love about Blink Fitness

Blink gets the basics right and adds a few extras.

  • Personal training is available at nearly every club if you want a coach.

  • The basics are covered, with cardio, free weights, and machines at nearly every club.

  • Locker rooms and showers at nearly every club, so you can train before work.

Here are the things we wish Blink Fitness would improve

Blink does plenty right. A few gaps are worth knowing before you sign.

  • No pools, steam rooms, or hot tubs, so swimmers should look elsewhere.

  • No childcare, so parents need a plan for the kids.

  • No club is open 24 hours, so late-night and very early lifters are out of luck on some days.

How much does it cost to join Blink Fitness?

Blink lists two plans at every club. In October 2026 I found:

  • Orange ($17/month, $15 with ACH): home club access with cardio and strength zones.
  • Blue ($30/month, $28 with ACH): regional access, guest privileges, and full gym amenities.
  • Blink charges a $59.99 annual maintenance fee.
  • I don't have Blink's enrollment fee yet. Ask your club before you sign.
  • Gym prices got you stressed out? Start with a free trial instead.

Final thoughts — Is worth it?

Yes, if you want low monthly dues. Orange is $17 a month, or $15 with ACH.

​

It fits you best if you want low dues and a solid gym floor. If you swim, count on childcare, or want a sauna, Blink is a weaker pick, because no club has a pool, no club offers childcare, and no club has a sauna. Google reviews average 4.1 stars across the chain, so read your club's reviews and take a tour first.

​

My take: Blink is worth a tour if you want low monthly dues.
