Stretching your body and working out has been proven many times to make you happier, more focused, creative, and even more relaxed. On top of being also a great support to your health. As we all learned in recent years, it’s way too easy to forget about exercising and stay at home. So for those who need the external motivation of a particular space for working out, we put together a shortlist of gyms in Lisbon and their prices so that you can stay healthy and happy during your few months stay in Portugal.
Find the perfect accommodation in Portugal
Fitness Hut
Fitness hut has over 26 gyms in
Lisbon and its metropolitan areas, so it will always be conveniently near your mid-term rental. If you’re looking for the standard gym experience with cardio machines and a few courses, then this is for you. You can sign up online for as little as €6,60 a week or €20 per month for a premium membership.
You can register for the closest gym online, but this will require you to have a Portuguese bank account. You can always go to the gym in person and sort it out there in the absence of that. The classes are rarely one on one, and sometimes they are pre-recorded videos. Fitness Hut is a great and affordable choice for anyone who wants to stretch their legs after a long day’s work.
Clube VII
This is place is much more than a gym. With six tennis courts, four studios for classes and a swimming pool as well as large bodybuilding and cardio area, this place truly has it all. It offers countless courses and is almost like a club with its own café where people meet for lunch. As you could guess, this place is a bit pricier, starting at €69 per month. The good news is that you can try it out with a €33 daily pass. If you want to be part of a community that really cares for their bodies, join Clube VII.
The Strength Clinic
This gym is on Rua dos Lusíadas in the Alcântara district, but it is well worth getting there. The gym is focused on a small group or personal training with tons of courses from weekly stretching to physical therapy, nutrition, and more. They offer various memberships, from €109 to €258 per month, so there is a lot to choose from. At first, you will be asked to book an individual consultation where the staff will try and find the best plan for you, but later, you need to show up. The Strength Clinic also offers online coaching, so there really is no excuse for not working out wherever you are.
Mega Craque Clube
The last gym we want to recommend is the Mega Craque Clube. It’s an excellent pick for everyone because it offers many of the services of the gyms mentioned above. Still, it has a particular focus on families. For as little as €30 per family member per month, you and your whole family can have access to cardio machines, swimming classes, yoga lessons, and so much more. You can reserve the classes online on their website and get access to a genuinely all-encompassing workout.
