Retro Fitness
Get Real
Retro Fitness is an attractive high value, low price fitness destination because of its inclusive community, state-of-the-art equipment, group fitness classes and personal training, and amenities like massage chairs and tanning. It is a one-stop shop for anyone looking to improve their health in a nurturing environment.
WHY FITNESS?
The $100+ Billion Fitness Industry was projected to grow 20% over the next five years, and that was before a 100-year Global Pandemic shined a spotlight on all the unhealthy behaviors we have adopted as a country. In short, the Fitness Industry is about to be more relevant than ever, as being fit and healthy, both physically and mentally, has never been more important.
WHY NOW?
Exercise is medicine! Being fit and healthy is the best vaccine you can have and in many ways, Health Clubs are now seen as an extension of Healthcare. Savvy investors are targeting the Fitness Industry for their investment dollars. Industry insiders also recognize that if you’re going to be in Fitness, that the High Value Low Price is Amazon-proof and continuously thrives even in the event of an economic correction.
WHY RETRO FITNESS?
Retro Fitness is disrupting the industry and focused on building a fitness brand with a purpose. Far more than just weights and cardio, we build a community inside the four walls of our clubs, while being a fabric of the community outside the four walls of our clubs.
OUR BRAND
A healthy lifestyle is happening all the time, that’s why Retro Fitness takes the journey with you. More than just a gym, we help people and communities thrive both physically and mentally offering far more than others in our industry.
