My wife signed me up for a joint gym membership underneath her name. The top of the contract list her and I as both members with her as the primary owner of the account. I never signed the contract cause I had my own membership with anther gym. Since I never signed the contract does this give my wife the right to renegotiate on changing the membership back to single?

Unfortunately No.
SHE agree to the contract. This means that she is on the hook for paying for double contract.
YOU do not have to pay anything since you agreed to nothing.

She could try, but depending on the contract and the circumstances, she likely won't be successful. She knew she was entering into a contract when she signed, and by signing she is acknowledging and confirming that she has read and understands the terms of that contract. There doesn't seem to be any deceit, undue pressure, or an attempt to confuse this woman on the part of the other party involved. You can't cancel the terms of the contract on the sole issue of not speaking great English. If she was concerned about the language, it was on her to have it clarified or translated. Additionally, unless there is a specific misunderstanding, such a suit will not be successful. You can't just toss the whole contract because you are no longer satisfied with it or simply want out on the vague argument of not speaking great English. And this is what seems to be the case. She isn't happy with the arraignment and is looking for some reason to cancel, and she can't cancel it for this reason.

Depends on the gym. When I joined, I put my husband on the account and he never had to appear or sign anything. When I wanted to take him off, they charged me $25 to change the membership to single. It's a scam, but whatever... That was with InShape in CA.

Nope. She purchased a second membership for you, basically. She signed the contract, they have the equipment there for you to use. Your not wanting it is not their problem -- they are performing their part of the contract.
It should teach her not to commit you to things without consulting you.

If a joint membership requires two signatures, then yes. If not, then her being the primary owner makes it enforceable.

No, she signed the contract and is bound by the contract she signed.

You'd have to read what your wife signed to get you signed up.
