Fit After 50 is a simple and satisfying business to own. With just a
small investment it can provide a good return to the studio owner. The
primary skills required to be a successful franchisee are an
entrepreneurial background and the desire to have fun! You spend your
days enjoying a non-stressful, healthy, social environment. You
experience the rewards of witnessing improvements to your members\'
health and well being. Basically, this is a "feel good, do good"
business....and you\'re working for yourself!
There are a number of reasons why the Extreme Gym franchise is a far smarter choice than other fitness franchising programs or trying to obtain a club on your own.
Primarily the lower initial cost and lower ongoing monthly fee. However, there are also virtually no controls or restrictions, no reporting requirements, no non-competition agreements, and no performance criteria with us as
compared to other gym franchises.
In regards to some of the world's most expensive fitness franchises, franchisees often find themselves sinking their entire life savings into the business or taking out huge loans only to wait many years for profitability. The Extreme Gym program is 1/6 to 1/4 the cost so you start profiting in months.
