Many gyms do offer free day/week passes to potential clients so they can try out the facility and see if they want to join or not. As part of this "promotion" they offer free body fat measuring and a consultation with a trainer. It's their way of training you on how to use each machine and which machines you should be using (therefore making you comfortable in a gym atmosphere). However, they are also trying to get you to pay for a membership.
I'd call a few gyms and or health clubs and see what they offer as far as memberships and trainers. Beware though, once you join a gym, you'll have to pay to have an appointment with trainers so get as much out of them as you can beforehand.
