Buy a Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs Franchise

Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs is a full-service, 24-hour gym franchise that combines big-box equipment access with the personalized programming and community feel of a boutique studio. The brand began franchising in 2016 and has built a presence concentrated in smaller markets where major fitness chains typically don’t operate.

Each location is a membership-based fitness facility with multiple revenue streams. Services include fitWAVE heart-rate-based group training, GroupX classes (yoga, cycling, Zumba and others), personal training, nutrition coaching, and Relax + Restore recovery suites. Clubs are equipped with Life Fitness and Hammer Strength equipment and support a branded mobile app for member check-in, workout tracking, class scheduling and a rewards program.

The brand targets communities with 15,000–20,000 residents in a five-mile radius, a market size typically below the threshold that national gym chains pursue. Fitness Premier has grown through both direct franchise development and a conversion pathway for independent gym owners. Franchisees may operate on a semi-absentee basis with a trained general manager in place.

Why buy a Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs Franchise?

Choosing to buy a Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs franchise means entering a health and fitness category in communities that national chains have largely bypassed. Each club operates as the primary full-service fitness option in its territory, with a multi-revenue structure spanning membership tiers, training, group classes, nutrition, and recovery services rather than relying on membership fees alone.

Consumer access partnerships support steady membership demand: Silver Sneakers and Renew Active serve the senior fitness demographic, Gympass connects corporate wellness accounts, and a Truemed integration allows members to pay using HSA and FSA funds. The branded Fitness Premier app supports ongoing member engagement through check-in, class scheduling, and a rewards program, while front-of-house technology reduces staffing requirements relative to comparable clubs.

Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Franchisees complete a five-day initial training at the corporate office in Frankfort, Illinois, covering 22 hours of classroom instruction and 18 hours of on-the-job training. The corporate team provides ongoing support across operations, marketing, back-office billing, and equipment licensing. The branded Fitness Premier mobile app and front-of-house technology are central to daily club operations; resale buyers should confirm with the franchisor what system access and onboarding training are provided to incoming ownership.

  2. Ideal Owner

    The typical Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs operator is community-oriented, comfortable managing a small staff, and willing to engage actively with members and the local market. Prior fitness industry experience is helpful but not required given the brand's training program. The model accommodates semi-absentee ownership when a trained general manager is in place, suited to operators who prefer an oversight role over direct daily service delivery. Sales orientation and a commitment to local community engagement support stronger membership retention and new member conversion.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs has built its reputation through growth in underserved markets rather than formal industry award recognition. In its 2025 mid-year report, the brand cited systemwide gross revenue growth of 10.5% year-over-year, new membership enrollment up 38%, and a record active membership count exceeding 20,000. For resale buyers, brand reputation should be assessed alongside unit-level factors: local member reviews, community standing, staff stability, and how the specific territory has performed relative to the broader system.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US gym, health and fitness club industry reached approximately $47 billion in 2026, according to IBISWorld, with over 108,000 businesses in operation. Revenue has grown at a CAGR of 3.6% since 2021, driven by rising consumer investment in preventive health, growing wellness spending among older demographics, and increasing household acceptance of gym membership as a routine expense. For resale buyers, local membership penetration, the absence of competing national chains in the territory, and seasonal demand patterns are important factors in evaluating an existing unit.
