Crunch Franchise Announces Newest Location At The Waterfront

Monday, January 06, 2014

Crunch announces The Waterfront in Homestead, PA as its newest franchise location. Home to a slew of options to shop, eat, stay and play, Crunch will be The Waterfront's first fitness club, bringing the brand's unparalleled workout experience and No Judgments philosophy to the already flourishing epicenter.

Crunch Waterfront will kick off the first of many Crunch locations in the greater Pittsburgh region over the next few years. Behind Crunch Waterfront is Cornerstone Fitness, LLC. The firm has acquired the development rights for the greater Pittsburgh area and will be opening more Crunch clubs in the near future.

"It is always exciting to grow and bring Crunch's first-rate facilities and one-of-a kind workout options to new locations across the country. But, to work with the Cornerstone team and expand to the great city of Pittsburgh is really a milestone for us," said Crunch Franchise President, Ben Midgley.

Crunch Waterfront is set to open for workouts in March 2014 and is now under construction next to Dick's Sporting Goods. The new location features a 20,000 square foot facility with vast amounts of state-of-the-art cardio and strength training equipment, full-service locker rooms and a spacious group fitness studio to house a variety of Crunch's signature group fitness classes including, BodyWeb with TRX�, Yoga Body Sculpt, BOSU� Bootcamp and more. Expert personal trainers will be on hand to provide personalized fitness plans and access to an online fitness and nutrition program is also available for members.

"After looking at every fitness brand in the country, we identified Crunch as compelling given the unique combination of energy, fun and effective workouts at its premier facilities. At $9.95 a month, we don't think any other brand in the business comes close in the total value offered to the consumer," said Dana O'Brien, Managing Director, Cornerstone Fitness.

An enrollment center is now open at The Waterfront, across from Starbucks and is offering exclusive membership deals, including $0 Enrollment Fee for a limited time. The enrollment center will also grant a first-hand look into the club, with a display of 3-D renderings, floor plans and some of Crunch Waterfront's top-line equipment available to check out.
