Access to More Than 10,000 Gyms for Only $29 a Month
When it comes to choosing a fitness center, you have a lot of options. There are large gyms that offer lots of extras like fitness classes, tanning and massage, and small gyms that just offer the basics. There are luxurious fitness centers, and some that don’t have many frills. There are big chains and others that stand alone. All that choice can make it difficult to find the right fitness center for you.
But what if you didn’t have to choose just one fitness center? What if you could pay one monthly fee and have access to thousands of fitness centers, both near your home and across the country?
The Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and Blue Care Network member discount program, Blue365®, has teamed up with Fitness Your Way™ by
Tivity Health™ to offer Blue Cross and Blue Care Network members access to more than 10,000 gym locations throughout the country for $29 a month. There’s a $29 enrollment fee.
Eligible Blue365 members and their dependents (must be 18 years of age or older) may enroll in Fitness Your Way. With members having access to multiple locations there’s no need to stick with one location or fitness chain. The membership requires a three-month commitment-after that, members may cancel.
You’ll be able to go to well-known gyms like LA Fitness, Curves and Anytime Fitness (see all the participating gyms here).
To sign up, log in to your account at bcbsm.com, click the Member Discounts with Blue365 link on the home page and search for the Fitness Your Way deal. Or, you can use the Blue Cross mobile app. Search BCBSM in Google Play™ or the App Store® to get the app.
Members have access to great deals through Blue365. You can learn more about the program through your member account at bcbsm.com or the Blue Cross mobile app.

Need gym locations for Baltimore md
I’m already a member of Anytime fitness with a $35.00/mo contract. They are on the list in my area for this program. My question is, will I be able to break my contract for this plan?
Hi Anna,
Thank you for reaching out. At this time, we recommend contacting your gym for questions related to your contract.
Best,
Taylar
How does this work for gyms that require a keycard to enter?
Hi Brian, thanks for your interest in Healthways! Membership and access varies based on the facility. You’d just need to let the gym know that you are using Healthways when you sign up and then follow their procedures for entry.
Just checking- do they bill BC for the fees? Or am I reimbursed by submitting payment?
Hi Mary, thank you for reading. The monthly membership fee is automatically deducted from the payment source (i.e. personal bank account or credit card) designated by the member.
I’m in Muskegon Michigan. I am a physician and swim regularly, the best exercise you can do. I pay $1000 per year for my access to a local pool. None of the listed centers for my area have lap pools. I’d like to pay $25 per month but would have to do a less helpful or desirable exercise. Any pools in the network near Muskegon?
Hi Peter, thank you for reading. You can look for participating facilities at http://fitnessyourway.tivityhealth.com/LocationSearch. You can search for facilities that have a pool by selecting Pool under Amenities in the Narrow your search drop down menu. If there isn’t a facility in Muskegon, perhaps there is something in a neighboring community that would work for you.
Do each member of your family need to pay $25 or can you bring a guest?
Hi Centa, We’re glad you reached out. Please share some information here, http://miblues.co/1Bb6oI4, and we’ll get in touch directly to help answer your question. Thanks, Taylar
I have BCBS Alabama and have been trying to figure out how to become a part of healthways for years. Is there a way to become enrolled into this program even if you do not have BCBS Michigan as your insurance?
Hello and thank you for reading. You will need to contact your insurance provider as details of the offer may vary depending on the Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield Company you are affiliated with. You can also find more information here: https://www.blue365deals.com/tivity-health-national-standing-29-monthly-fee-access-network-10000-gyms-nationwide?planid=BCBSA.
Does this give you full access to the gyms or just their basic rate level? My gym offers tanning, saunas and extra classes on the upgraded membership levels would this membership offered cover those features?
Hi Nicole, The monthly fee includes basic membership only. Access to additional services such as personal training, spa services, classes, or access to a pool or whirlpool vary by facility. To verify access to additional services, contact Tivity Health at 888-242-2060 (Monday – Friday 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. EST) or the gym directly. Thank you!
Why do you say “You’ll be able to go to well-known gyms like LA Fitness…” (which is the gym I’d like to join) but then when I pull up the list of “participating” gyms in my area (SE Michigan), they’re all gyms I’ve never heard of? Not to mention, LA Fitness is nowhere to be found.
Hi Richard, LA Fitness locations are among those available in the southeast Michigan. If you’d like help finding a location near you, you can speak with a Fitness Your Way customer service representative Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. EST. by calling 1-888-242-2060.
Is there a reason that the LA Fitness locations don’t show up on the locations map?
Hi Aaron – Please enter your address, city or zip code here: https://fitnessyourway.tivityhealth.com/locations to find a participating LA Fitness location near you. Thanks for reaching out! Lisa
My husband and I are both covered under Blue Care Network of Michigan (through Michigan State Univ.) Would we both pay the $29 per month fee in order for both of us to participate in this offer?
Hello Joella! Yes, all family members over age 18 who are covered by your health plan are eligible to participate in the program. Each member pays the $29 enrollment fee (unless waived through the special offer above) and $29 monthly membership fee.
our company owns a Y and I was wondering why we cant join our own companys Y?? question for the company I guess!
If you are already enrolled, do you have to pay a renrollment fee at the new year every year?
Hi Dane, Thanks for reaching out! If you are already enrolled, you do not have to pay a new re-enrollment fee at the beginning of the new year. Thanks, Taylar
I travel a lot for work, can I use different gyms as I travel? Does this system allow you to have a home gym and a travel gym?
Hi Jojoe, You can do that, however, the fitness centers just need to be participating members of the program. To see the full list of participating gyms and fitness centers, click here: https://bit.ly/2MiqRFn. Hope this helps! Best, Taylar
Which would be better for me price-wise, Silver Sneakers or this offer?
Hi Kathy, thanks for reaching out. By providing us with some additional info here, https://miblues.co/2QJW3zp, a member of our team will reach out to dicuss what offer might be best for you. Thanks, Jessica
Why no membership in the YMCA, of Saginaw. They do accept the silver sneeker program. This is better then the ones you mentioned with what is included.
