Kirklees Active Leisure (KAL) will launch its first budget gym in Huddersfield, Yorkshire, in May.

The SMART Fitness-branded site will offer monthly memberships from £14.95 and is the first low-cost club in the town.

The gym will be fitted with Technogym equipment, with the 110 stations including a combination of cardio machines, cardio theatre and strength machines.

Situated at the KAL-operated Huddersfield Sports Centre, facilities will also include a functional training area with TRX suspension machines and a free weights area.

KAL first announced its plans to launch a budget gym concept

in November 2010.

Alasdair Brown, KAL's chief executive said: "The current gym at the Sports Centre has become hugely popular in the last few years and KAL has been looking to develop a new approach that will both keep current customers active and happy, while also attracting in new people to make use of the extended gym, at a very affordable price."

Although KAL is looking to roll out the SMART Fitness concept, a spokesperson said that there were no concrete plans for the next site.
