Anytime Fitness Express. A solution for smaller communities.

Can the most convenient fitness club get even more convenient?

It can when it’s an Anytime Fitness Express. Anytime Fitness Express is the latest concept for the Anytime Fitness Corporation. Cities with 5,000 people or less have a need for a fitness center, and Anytime Fitness Express is the ultimate solution!! Express clubs are typically 2,500 square feet or less. Anytime Fitness Express is just one of the many ways Anytime Fitness Corporation continues to set trends in the fitness industry!

What’s the different between a traditional Anytime Fitness and an Anytime Fitness Express?

Due to its compact size, Anytime Fitness Express can effectively operate in two distinct markets.

Anytime Fitness Express is ideally suited for small communities or rural markets. Generally targeted for population centers of less than 5,000 people, the Express concept offers cutting-edge fitness clubs to areas that may have few, if any, workout options. To achieve maximum potential, a franchisee can cover a chain of small towns with Express clubs. This is possible due to the reduced operating expenses of an Express club.

The second market for the Express concept exists within the current territory of a full-sized Anytime Fitness club. The owner of the "Flagship" Anytime Fitness club can strategically place an Express center within his/her territory and it can greatly add to the convenience factor for club members. When a member can workout when and where they want to, they will quickly experience the real benefits of a fitness program.

The Express solution is able to maximize the profit potential of a small floor plan by incorporating dual-use equipment. This model also operates with lower security costs and a greatly reduced payroll. Anytime Fitness Express demonstrates the corporation’s commitment to brand development and product diversification, while allowing for new market penetration and expansion.

What’s the same?

In many ways, an Express club will operate just as a full-sized club. For example, when you open in a new territory (i.e., not shared with another AF club), you are eligible for all the training and support offered to non-Express owners. You will also have access to the sales, marketing, and communications tools offered to regular franchisees.

Another important crossover feature is membership reciprocity. Using the current program, your members can move between your clubs without filling out extra forms or carrying multiple membership cards.

And finally, just like the Anytime Fitness clubs, the Express clubs will operate 24-hours a day, 7 days a week. That convenience, along with the other advantages of our business model, makes owning an Anytime Fitness Express a fantastic opportunity.
