Best Free Trials by Length

If you want the most time to test a gym, the 7-day trials are the standouts: Les Mills (online), Anytime Fitness (7-day free pass), and council-run leisure centres (7-day community pass) all give you a full week. For a shorter look, YMCA Auckland and M2 Fitness offer 3-day trials, and Jetts offers a 1-day free pass via an online form. A full week is ideal because it lets you train at the times you'd actually use the gym — weekday mornings, after work, and the weekend — rather than judging it on a single visit.
