Fresh Fitness Alternatives 2026: 5 Oslo Gyms Compared
Considering switching from Fresh Fitness? Here are the five real alternatives in Oslo with verified prices, and who each one is for. Verified June 2026.
SHORT ANSWER
For group classes cheaper than Fresh Fitness, choose Friskis&Svettis (249 NOK) or Treningshuset (349 NOK). If you do not need classes, Fitness24Seven (329 NOK) is cheaper and 24/7. Evo (449 NOK) is for pure strength training. If you want sauna and a full pool network, only SATS qualifies (from 599 NOK Basic). Fresh Fitness sits in the middle: classes and a boutique feel without the SATS price, so the right alternative depends on whether you are trading down on price (Friskis, Fitness24Seven) or up on facilities (SATS). Fresh Fitness starts from 349 NOK, but the group-class package is higher (around 399 to 499 NOK), so check your package before comparing.

FAQ
What is the cheapest alternative to Fresh Fitness?
Friskis&Svettis from 249 NOK/month is the cheapest alternative and includes group classes. If you do not want classes, Fitness24Seven (from 329 NOK) is cheaper than the Fresh Fitness group-class package and gives true 24/7 access. Both lack sauna and pool, which among the major chains only SATS offers. Fresh Fitness starts from 349 NOK, but the price varies by package.
Is there an alternative to Fresh Fitness with a sauna?
No, not among the budget or mid-tier chains. Fresh Fitness has no sauna, and neither do Friskis&Svettis, Treningshuset, Fitness24Seven or Evo. SATS is the only large Oslo gym that includes sauna and pool (more locations) in the membership, from 599 NOK Basic. If you want to trade up on facilities, SATS is the only real alternative.
Fresh Fitness vs SATS, what is the difference?
Fresh Fitness (from 349 NOK, group-class package higher) gives group classes and a boutique feel without a sauna. SATS (from 599 NOK Basic, 699 Standard, 799 All-Access) is dearer, but is the only chain with sauna, pool at more locations, over 1,000 group classes per week and a Nordic network. Choose Fresh Fitness for a lower price, SATS for facilities and reach. Both prices verified June 2026.
What is the cheapest gym with classes in Oslo?
Friskis&Svettis from 249 NOK/month is the cheapest gym with group classes in Oslo. Treningshuset (from 349 NOK) adds functional training. Fresh Fitness includes classes in the group-class package, but that sits higher than the 349 NOK starting price. Evo and Fitness24Seven have no classes, so they do not apply if classes are the requirement.
Can I cancel Fresh Fitness and switch without a contract?
Yes. Fresh Fitness is sold without a lock-in, with one month notice. All the alternatives above are also sold without a contract on the standard membership (some offer a lower price with a 12-month contract). You can switch month to month without a fee.
