Memberships

What’s included with every membership

Every Functional Fitness Gym membership includes everything you need to train your way:

• 24/7 access, 365 days a year — train at 5am, midnight, on Christmas Day, whenever fits your life
• Modern, commercial-grade equipment — cardio machines, free weights, cable machines, racks, dumbbells from 1–40kg, kettlebells, plyo boxes, sleds and more (see the full list on our Special Equipment page)
• Private reformer Pilates studio access
• Secure app-based entry with CCTV throughout
• Spotless facilities, cleaned multiple times daily
• Locally owned — when you message us, you reach Troy and the team directly, not a corporate call centre
• Genuinely quiet, low-crowd environment — we deliberately keep membership numbers low so you never wait for equipment
• No joining fee on any tier

Our three membership options

Choose the commitment that fits — the longer you commit, the lower your weekly rate. None of our memberships have a joining fee.

• $21.95 per week — 12-month membership. Best value for members who know they’ll train consistently for a year.
• $24.95 per week — 6-month membership. A middle option for members who want a meaningful commitment without locking in for a full year.
• $29.95 per week — 30-day rolling membership. No lock-in, cancel anytime with 14 days’ notice. Best for members who want maximum flexibility, are travelling, or just want to try us with no long-term commitment.

All three tiers include the same 24/7 access and everything listed above. Personal training and private reformer Pilates are available as add-ons on every membership.

How Functional Fitness Gym compares to other Newstead gyms

We don’t try to be the absolute cheapest gym in Newstead, but we are competitive — and what you get for the price is genuinely different to a chain gym. Here’s how we stack up against the other gyms in and around Newstead in 2026:

Prices and features compared in good faith from publicly available information in May 2026. Competitor pricing changes — verify directly with each gym for current rates.

How our memberships work — the small print, made simple

No joining fee on any membership. Other gyms charge $79–99 or more just to sign you up. We don’t. You pay your first week, that’s it.

The 30-day rolling option has no lock-in. Cancel anytime with 14 days’ notice — no exit fees, no negotiation, no awkward conversations. The 6 and 12-month options are commitments to that term, but they’re significantly cheaper per week in return.

Pause your membership. Going overseas, recovering from an injury, or have a stretch of work travel? You can freeze your membership for up to 8 weeks per year at no charge.

Free tour. Not sure? Book a free tour and we’ll show you around. You’re welcome to ask any questions before signing up.

Direct debit only. Memberships are billed weekly to your bank account or card. You can update your payment method anytime.

Cancellation in writing. A simple email is fine. We won’t make you jump through hoops or sit through a retention call.

Frequently asked questions about gym memberships in Newstead

How much does a gym membership cost in Newstead?

Memberships at Functional Fitness Gym start at $21.95 per week with no joining fee. Other Newstead gyms range from around $18.90 per week (Club Bunker, Anytime Fitness, often with joining fees added) up to premium tiers above $50 per week at Function Well or TAC. The cheapest sticker price isn’t always the cheapest total cost once joining fees, lock-in penalties and add-on charges are factored in.

Is Functional Fitness Gym actually 24/7?

Yes. The gym is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Members use the gym app to unlock the door, giving access at any time, including late nights, early mornings, weekends, and public holidays.

Do you have any lock-in contracts?

Only the 6-month and 12-month memberships are committed to that term — they’re cheaper per week because of the longer commitment. Our 30-day rolling membership has no lock-in: pay week to week and cancel anytime with 14 days’ notice.

What’s the cheapest gym in Newstead?

Anytime Fitness and Club Bunker advertise the lowest sticker prices in Newstead, around $18-19 per week. After joining fees, activation charges and minimum contract terms, the actual total cost is often comparable to our $21.95/wk (which has no joining fee). We focus on giving you a quieter, less crowded, locally-owned alternative rather than competing on the absolute lowest price.

Can I freeze my membership if I go away?

Yes. Members can pause their membership for up to 8 weeks per year at no charge. Just let us know in writing before you go and we’ll freeze and unfreeze it for you.

Is the gym safe to train at late at night?

Yes. Our 24/7 access uses a secure app-based entry system, with CCTV throughout the gym floor and around the entry. The location at 1/26 Commercial Road, Newstead is well-lit and on a quiet street within the Newstead lifestyle precinct, with parking right at the door.

Can I bring a guest or get a day pass?

Yes — we offer guest passes and day passes. Get in touch via our contact page and we’ll sort it out.

How do I cancel my membership?

Email us a written request. For the 30-day rolling membership, your membership ends 14 days after we receive your cancellation. For 6 and 12-month memberships, cancellation takes effect at the end of your committed term unless you have an eligible reason (such as serious injury or relocation). No exit fees, no retention call, no fuss.
