I was out doing errands this afternoon and out of curiosity I decided to stop by a place called UFC Gym. I ended up with a free class this coming Monday after work (Daily Ultimate Training: an hour long and it seems like a full-body bootcamp type workout). Anyone familiar with the franchise?
I was thinking it would be a nice change from lifting and basic cardio. Only problem is the price... if I heard the guy correctly, he said it was $199 to join and $80 per month  Unlimited classes though and a free pair of training gloves.

depends on what classes but my wifes are $150-$180 for 8-10 weeks depending on the specials. gloves, bags, weights, sparring, etc. No jui jitsu or anything but the guy that runs the class turns out "worldclass" athletes in kickboxing, mma, and tae kwon do.
By world class I mean on a national level and mostly kids. |

So. .. where the funk is the grappling? Grappling is worthless in a real engagement and against multiple attackers and when fighting in the street or when fighting in lava or against poisonous snakes. Are they real training classes or more like cardio kickboxing? |

Most of them appear to be cardio type but they do have the advanced mma and advanced boxing classes which look like a lot of instruction and sparing. I'm really just looking to do the cardio type classes and throw in an mma class once in a while. |

So I survived... The class I did (Daily Ultimate Training) was basically an hour of calisthenics. Definitely a good workout but something you could do on your own.
Regardless of being able to do the class on my own without having to pay, I think I'm going to fo and join. The class environment (and eye candy) was a pretty good experience that I want more of. |
