Basic membership is $100 for 45–60 mins, 3–5 times per week.

Al Rosen's Fitness and Conditioning Camp has a 2-Day Tri-Fitness Conditioning as well as a True Grit Challenge.

AIM hands you the tools you need to get in peak fitness.

Tampa Bay Club Sport Boot Camp runs the gamut for beginning and advanced athletes alike to get fit in Tampa and St. Petersburg.

And after you're successfully singeing calories on your own, join one of the dozens of team sports that the club has organized. $150 for 5 weeks
