Starting out at the gym, and looking for an affordable way to build confidence, strength and fitness? We’ve got the solution for you!
When you’re joining a gym for the first time, chances are you’re looking to find a cost-efficient gym membership which gives you the flexibility and freedom to build your fitness routine in a comfortable, supportive environment. You don’t need fancy equipment, showy or competitive people around you, or pressure to spend hours in the gym each day to make an absurdly expensive membership worthwhile.
Instead, you need good-quality, foundational equipment like dumbbells, barbells and cardio machines, the flexibility to attend the gym at whatever time works best for you and your schedule, and expert trainers on hand who can help you with form and technique when you want. This way, you can work your way up, smashing your fitness goals and achieving your desired results as you progress. Why spend exorbitant amounts of money on a gym membership which doesn’t cater to your needs, and is overly technical or high-pressure, when you can join an affordable gym, available for you to access 24/7, with all the equipment and facilities you need to get your fitness on track?
So why bother joining a gym at all? If you’re looking to prioritise your health and fitness, joining a gym which supports you and your goals can be hugely important in helping you achieve and exceed them.
The sense of community and support you get in a Jetts gym should never be underestimated! Being around like-minded people, who are also working towards health and fitness goals, and taking time out of their day to make these a priority, is one of the most motivating and inspiring things you can do.
If you’re just starting out, or you’re not completely confident in the gym yet, having a great community around you is a must! At the gym, you can look to others for inspiration, ask for ideas or guidance, and even find yourself a gym buddy or accountability partner if you’re struggling with motivation! You’re guaranteed that the others in the club with you are all working towards similar goals, so why not help each other get there?
When you try to go it alone, you miss out on all the support, camaraderie and accountability you get from working out in a gym. It quickly becomes repetitive, boring and mundane, and this is when good habits begin to slip. So don’t settle for boring - make your workouts fun, dynamic and social, and embrace the inspiring and welcoming community each Jetts club offers.
Having our expert trainers on hand when you’re working out is so beneficial. Not only can you seek guidance on how to use new pieces of equipment and accessories, you can also ask for corrections to your form and technique to prevent injuries and optimise your results. Plus, if you’re struggling to come up with new movement patterns and session ideas for yourself, our trainers are there to help! It’s important for your safety, progress and performance to have expert PTs around you - especially when you’re just starting out on your fitness journey.
It’s pretty hard to feel motivated to workout consistently if you’re doing it alone, day after day, without access to a variety of equipment or people around you to keep you inspired and enthusiastic. Naturally, people who workout in a gym feel much more energised, motivated and challenged in their fitness routine. You’ll be able to engage in many different types of workouts with the equipment in your local Jetts club - from cardio, to resistance, to everything in between - and you’ll have the extra push from the trainers and other exercise enthusiasts around you! Our fun, community vibe will leave you feeling much more eager to sweat it out, compared to if you’re going it alone. It’s always more enjoyable working out with a bunch of amazing people around you - and even better, it removes the excuse to delay or avoid your workouts, and slack off during your sessions, since you have others keeping you accountable and egging you on!
When you attempt to workout on your own in your home environment, you’re normally working with extremely limited space and equipment, and often surrounded by family members, housemates, and other people who are inconvenienced by your fitness activities. No one wants these factors interfering with their workouts!
When you hit the gym, you’ve got all the space and equipment you need for an effective sweat session, so you can workout without the guilt and hassle, and instead make the most of every moment in your session! It also offers a really nice mental escape from your home life, allowing you to switch off from the outside world and just be in the zone - physically and mentally - for the duration of your workout! It’s a unique form of mindfulness!
Jetts is where it’s at, for fitness newbies and seasoned pros alike.
Being a Jetts member gives you 24/7 access to our clubs, so you can workout in a way that works for you! Whatever your schedule, and however demanding or variable it may be, there’s always time to fit a workout into your day with this flexibility. Having the knowledge that you can squeeze in a session whenever it’s convenient for you - whether it’s early in the morning before work, at lunchtime, or in the afternoon or evening - is so helpful, particularly when you’re starting out and not yet in the habit of a structured fitness routine. This way, you can try different times of the day out, and figure out what best suits you and your body! And you’re secure in the knowledge that, should things pop up throughout the day, there is always plenty of time to get to the gym and fit your workout in!

We’ve covered some of the benefits of joining Jetts, but what about the flip side? If you don’t join us, and start prioritising your fitness today, you’re risking your health and wellbeing!
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 $1.28 per day 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.
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.
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!
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.
