Business Profile:
Over 30 years ago, in 1983, 24 Hour Fitness was founded with the simple mission of “helping people improve their lives through fitness,” (24hourfitness.com). Now headquartered in San Ramon, California, 24 Hour Fitness has grown to serve four million members nationwide with over 400 locations across the United States.
During its inception, founder Mark Mastrov, wanted to provide a work out environment that had the top-notch amenities offered at other clubs, but also hours that worked for everyone, whether that was during holidays, slower parts of the day, or throughout the night and into early mornings. Many of the clubs provide up to date amenities and trends, including top quality training equipment, dedicated cycle and personal training areas, basketball courts, indoor and/or outdoor lap pools, whirlpools, steam rooms, saunas, racquetball courts and pro shops (amenities vary based on locations and size of the club). Additionally, 24 Hour Fitness provides Kids’ Club Areas for families with children under twelve years old.
