24 hour gym franchise network fights obesity rates

Forget the excuses, now there’s no such time as a bad time to exercise with the rapid expansion of a 24 hour gym franchise in Australia.

With obesity rates alarmingly high and almost 30 percent of 14 year old children at risk of heart disease, Jetts Fitness is encouraging all Australians to get their heart rate pumping at a time that suits their schedule.

Jetts Fitness Franchise clubs have opened in over 30 gym franchise locations throughout Australia and are characterized by the ability for members to workout at any time, day or night.

Brendon Levenson, Managing Director of the fitness franchise network said “Increasing time demands and poor lifestyle choices have had a major impact on regular Australians’ weight gain”. “At Jetts, we have enabled exercise to be easy and affordable for all Australians through our all hours access, close to home gym model, with no contracts and rates half that of other gyms. With our low price point and never closed approach, there really are no excuses to not start taking care yourself.”

With Kevin Rudd set to launch his most recent war on junk food, the timing for a fitness concept that suits regular Australians has never been more appropriate.

Having worked and owned traditional clubs in the fitness industry for nine years, Brendon noticed high fees, overwhelming equipment, restrictive opening hours and pushy sales staff were discouraging people from joining a gym.

“Our members aren’t forced to pay fees for equipment and facilities they don’t need or use, for example pools and steam rooms,” he said. What we’ve done is eliminate all the reasons for people not to join a gym and our vision for the future will see more and more Australians taking better care of themselves by participating in an active lifestyle.”

The Jetts vision is to see an accessible network of over 230 Jetts gyms across the country with a club located within eight minutes of most Australians’ homes. Jetts Fitness has twenty five more centre’s set to open nation-wide this year.
