If I were to open my own Fitness Club/Workout Center how much money would I make?

After paying off all of the equipment, on average how much would I make? If I did not hire any help.

Your question is very difficult to answer and mostly depends on your ability to develop and manage a new business. Typically any new business takes more than it receives until it is established. Most profit is reinvested into the business and the owner is the last one to be paid.

You will have to lease or buy a location that will be convenient to customers, charge a reasonable monthly fee, retain those customers, keep the equipment in good condition, use good sales skills to attract and keep customers, problem solve daily and the list goes on and on. Scope out the competition and find out where they are located, what they charge, how much rent they pay and anything else you can learn.

Hopefully, you have money in the bank or a limited partner who will back you financially until the business begins to earn money. It will not be easy for you but it is a good goal to have.

How would go about designing a program that would maximize adherence rates?

Not sure exactly what you mean. The fitness club needs to properly advertise and have a lot of good free weights, cables, machines & cardio machines to attract people. A fitness centre must have a pleasant atmosphere and have good music and be kept very clean. Having personal trainers there to assist people is also a must.

Is there a fitness club in new york?

October 23, 2010 - 3:26 am 1 Comment

I want to join a big, nice club that has a pool – indoor and outdoor would be nice – a nice sized cardio and weight room, nice locker rooms, a gymnasium – where you can play basketball – and a place where you can hang with a tv. Also if there is one close to Queens it would be cool. Thanks and if there is a club that is close to the requirements just add that too.

Chelsea Piers should do for you.

Would it be cheaper for my mom to add me to her golds account or to join club fitness?

October 17, 2010 - 4:44 pm 2 Comments

i believe golds is like 30 a month and club fitness is 20.
i wanna know if there is a deal for golds.

Gold’s Gym near my house is having a special for $20/month for 1 year membership. but after the 1 time sign up fee, it’s like $275/year. I asked if I could pay them all at once and they said OK, it’s $275 for a year. I think it is cheap.
Maybe you mom has a health insurance plan that will reimburse her some $. Some Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans will reimburse up to $150.
