Retro Fitness runs clubs across several states. I went through their clubs, amenities, and prices so you know what you're getting.

Retro Fitness clubs cover the basics: cardio, free weights, and machines. Most of their clubs also have:
You'll find these at some clubs:
Retro Fitness doesn't offer pools, steam rooms, hot tubs, basketball courts, or cold plunges.


Eric Casaburi created Retro Fitness, trademarked the name in 2004, and opened the first converted club in 2005 (Athletech News). Andrew Alfano has been CEO since July 2019 (PR Newswire, Athletech News).

Retro Fitness gets the basics right and adds a few extras.

Month-to-month plans with no commitment.

Group fitness classes run at nearly every club, so you don't have to plan every workout yourself.

Personal training is available at nearly every club if you want a coach.
Retro Fitness does plenty right. A few gaps are worth knowing before you sign.

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

Childcare is only at a handful of clubs. If you need it, confirm your club has it before you join.

No club is open 24 hours, so late-night and very early lifters are out of luck on some days.
Retro Fitness lists month-to-month plans with no commitment. At most clubs in October 2026 I found:
Club pages don't list the enrollment or annual fee, so ask before you sign.

Retro Fitness fits members who want low dues and a solid gym floor and like group classes.
How much is a Retro Fitness membership?
Is Retro Fitness open 24 hours?
Does Retro Fitness have a pool?
Does Retro Fitness have childcare?
Does Retro Fitness have a sauna?

Yes, if you want low monthly dues. FLEX is $24.99 a month with no commitment.
It fits you best if you want low dues and a solid gym floor and like group classes. If you swim, count on childcare, or train late at night, Retro Fitness is a weaker pick, because no club has a pool, only a handful of clubs offer childcare, and no club is open 24 hours. Google reviews average 4.3 stars across the chain, so read your club's reviews and take a tour first.
My take: Retro Fitness is worth a tour if you want low monthly dues.
