IHRSA GLOBAL REPORT © Copyright 2010 IHRSA 5

“Downright Upbeat.” These two words best describe the mood in San Diego in March at IHRSA 2010, the industry’s premier annual gathering of health club leaders worldwide.People were happy. They were networking, trading ideas, and learning from some of the best minds in the business. The IHRSA trade show was buzzing. Business was getting done. In short, everyone was looking forward, not back. Such is the nature of our industry.

As you will see from this report, the global health club industry continues to expand. In 2009, it generated nearly $70 billion in total revenue, serving nearly 119,000,000 members at more than 126,000 facilities worldwide.

Health club members continued to utilize their facilities at record-breaking rates. For example, in the United States, health club usage by core members in 2009 averaged an impressive 102 days a year! How many other industries are as frequently engaged with their customers?

Like nearly every industry, ours has been affected by the global economic recession. However, it has shown itself to be remarkably resilient. Club owners have re-examined their operations from top to bottom. They have implemented tighter expense management, and have found new and innovative ways to attract and retain members. They have made their businesses better. Savvy operators have also taken advantage of softer real estate markets and lower construction costs to fund expansions and renovations.

As veteran industry consultant Rick Caro, the president of Management Vision, Inc., explains on page 9, attrition rates have leveled off and member-ship levels have stabilized. Ancillary revenue seems to be increasing, he says, and clubs’ diligent expense savings are starting to have a meaningful impact on the bottom line.

Our industry is blessed with thousands of industrious businessmen and women, many of whom are profiled in the pages of this publication. In 2009, these club operators continued to find innovative ways to grow their busi-nesses, to serve their communities and to promote wellness. With the rising costs of health care on everybody’s mind, the health club industry is poised like no other to be a major contributor to making the world healthier.

When the book closes on 2010, we are confident that the 2011 edition of The IHRSA Global Report will record yet another record-breaking year for the health and fitness industry. We can’t wait!

Yours in health,

By Kristen A. Walsh

The health club industry had a learning year in 2009, as the recessionary economy affected businesses in a variety of ways. “Clubs found fewer new prospect leads and needed to find new marketing techniques,” explains Rick Caro, President of Manage-ment Vision, Inc., a fitness industry consulting company based in New York City. “They suffered from increasing attrition rates. In many cases, ancillary revenue levels decreased or at least stopped

growing at previous rates. Finally, the pressure on revenue triggered many clubs to attack all expense items and create meaningful cost savings. In many cases, the

expense savings did not start early enough in the year, so EBITDA and EBITDAR levels decreased.”

Caro adds, “Despite this pressure on clubs, there were some elements of optimism—especially

toward the end of 2009. Adults who remained as members used their clubs more fre-

quently. Fewer new builds occurred, so the balance of supply versus demand

remained about the same. The debt markets were still difficult to

access, so fewer major transac-tions occurred in 2009.”

Most extremists do not see any major improvement in key fac tors—inc lud ing employment levels—until later in 2010, notes Caro. “Most clubs are therefore turning inward to improve their organic growth,” he explains. “Attrition rates seem to be levelled off in early 2010, as membership levels have stabilized. Ancil-lary revenue seems to be

creeping upward. Expense savings are starting to have a

meaningful impact on the bottom line. Franchise compa-

nies are growing. A few of the larger clubs are acquiring or build-

ing, but at a slower pace compared to 2007 and early 2008. Debt is still a

challenge (both for cash flow-based lending as well as asset-based). Many

private equity firms are still standing on the

sidelines waiting to enter the club industry and few are likely to exit in 2010.”

Caro adds, “Management is being tested and often proving itself in these challenging times.”

“When consumer confidence falls, people tend to close their pocketbooks, so we’ve seen a great deal of pressure put on consumer spending over the past 18 months,” notes Curves president Mike Raymond. “We believe we’ll see this begin to recover toward the end of 2010, but it’s going to take time.” Curves, the largest fitness franchisor, has expanded its reach to 76 countries, and by the fall of 2010, expects to have a significant presence in three more: Russia, China and India. “Curves has huge international aspirations, and it’s excit-ing to watch us open in so many countries—espe-cially those that have typically had few opportuni-ties for women,” adds Raymond.

Anytime Fitness, the #1 coed fitness club chain in the world, recently opened its 1,300th club and is rapidly expanding internationally. In the past 12 months, master agreements have been signed in Mexico, India, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg, with similar agreements expected soon in the UK, Ireland, Japan and Vietnam. “From our perspective, we see the economy slowly improving,” says Mark Daly, National Media Direc-tor for Anytime Fitness. “The companies that will do best going forward are those that are perceived to provide value to their members.”

Environmental awareness (or “going green”) remains a key issue for the fitness industry. Green business practices include improvements as small as recycling and cleaning with non-toxic products, to larger construction projects using building mate-rials with low Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), using post-consumer recycled materials, i.e. rubber flooring, and installing LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)-certified heating, air conditioning, and ventilation systems in clubs.

In February 2010, IHRSA released the results of its first-ever Green/Sustainability Survey. The purpose was to gain insight into the opinions and practices of club operators around environ-mental sustainability and its associated business implications. More than 130 participants provided the breadth of data for the survey that has set a benchmark for measuring the industry’s green business practices.

The results indicate that overall, health club operators have a positive perspective on integrating environmentally friendly practices into their daily business practices and see “going green” as a way to have a positive impact on club performance.

• Over two-thirds (70.7%) of participants indicated senior management having a strongly positive perspective on implementing green practices.

• Over half (54.7%) of participating clubs indicated that green practices have a moderate priority within their organization. One-third (33.1%) indicated they have a high priority.

• Over six out of 10 (65%) surveyed club operators believe implementing green practices at their clubs would differentiate them from the competition.

• Over one-third (35%) indicated that senior man-agement believes green practices would increase membership growth.

• Nearly four out of 10 respondents (38.8%) responded that senior management believes green practices would increase membership retention.

• Nearly half of participating clubs (48.9%) responded that senior management believes that green practices would increase club profits.

“The world’s increasing need and focus on environmentalism presents health club owners and operators with the opportunity to improve the health of the envi-ronment as well as that of their members,” says Bruce Buckbee, managing partner of Leisure Green, LLC, who collaborated with IHRSA on the survey. “‘Going green’ can have a positive impact on a club’s image, establish it as a leader in its community, positively impact its recruitment a n d r e t e n t i o n o f members and employ-ees, and improve its bottom line.”

According to Meredith Poppler, IHRSA’s Vice President of Industry Growth, the global fitness industry is facing its most dangerous threat ever in the form of drastically increasing music copyright fees. “Sales of music CD’s have dropped precipi-tously due to the advent of digital music, so the music industry is looking to other sources to replace this lost revenue,” she explains. “They have targeted industries that currently pay music license fees for the use of music, mainly health clubs and night clubs.”

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

North AmericaUNITED STATES

In 2009, U.S. health club industry performance remained consistent, despite slow economic condi-tions and rising unemployment. Increases in club usage and non-dues spending helped increase overall industry revenues above 2008. In addition, attendance increased to an all-time high average of 102 days in 2009.

“Increased usage is typically associated with increased spending on non-dues related items, such

as personal training, lessons, juice bars, and other services,” says Jay Ablondi, IHRSA’s Executive Vice Presi-dent of Global Products. “In spite of the tough economy, U.S. consum-ers visited their clubs more often, not only to improve their health, but to relieve stress.”

Inc. Magazine recently recognized Plus One Health Management, led by founder and CEO Mike Motta, on its list of fastest-growing compa-

nies: the Inc. 5,000. The list scored privately owned companies based on revenue growth between 2005 and 2008. Plus One, based in New York, had a 73% growth rate, which can be attributed to sales growth in new industries and regions, expanding its “green” ECOwellness approach to facility design, operations, and programming, and expanding its service offerings. The company also made the Top 100 list of Inc. 5,000 companies ranked by number of employees.

Bally Total Fitness Corp., which has faced a series of financial challenges in recent years, emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection for the second time in as many years. The court-approved move reduces the company’s debt from $800 million to $85 million, with leading investors converting their bank debt into equity in the chain; JPMorgan Chase & Co. was expected to wind up with 50.5% of the stock of the reorganized com-pany, and Anchorage Advisors LLC, a hedge fund, with 33.7%. The arrangement also provides BTF with access to revolving and term loans. As a result, the company will be able to keep 85% of its 270 clubs open and retain 13,000 employees. “The unparalleled financial flexibility we have after emerging from bankruptcy will allow us to make

investments necessary to build Bally into the preeminent fitness chain in the country,” says CEO Michael Sheehan.

At press time, creditors of Crunch Fitness were set to begin voting on the liquidating Chapter 11 plan that offers $140,000 to unsecured creditors. Crunch filed for Chapter 11 reorganization in May 2009 and was authorized in September to sell the business in exchange for secured debt.

In July 2009, Club One, a fitness management provider based in San Francisco, announced the addition of six facilities to its roster of nearly 100 fitness centers nationwide. “This growth is not only a positive sign for the industry’s overall outlook but is a good indicator that businesses are increasingly recognizing the financial viability of fitness centers and the impact that such facilities can have on healthy and stress-free lifestyles of employees and members,” says Bill McBride, COO of Club One.

In December 2009, Parisi Speed School, a leader in youth fitness and sports performance training, announced the sale of its 50th franchise to Cherry Hill Racquet & Sports Clubs of Cherry Hill, New Jersey. Entre-preneur Magazine named Parisi Speed School one of its “Top 20 Franchise Opportu-nities for 2009.”

Independent club operators are also keeping a close watch on consumer behavior and spending.

“We began to see the results of the downturn of the economy in the first quarter of 2009,” says Susan Cooper, owner of BodyBusiness Health Club & Spa in Austin, Texas. “We had already begun our cost cutting actions in the last quarter of 2008. The 4th quarter of 2009 was our worst quarter. As for 2010, we are seeing slow but steady growth.”

“One of our company’s greatest challenges at this time is overcoming the continued impact of

the recession and increasing revenues from all profit centers,” says Brent Darden, General Manager/Owner of Telos Fitness Center in Dallas, Texas. “Unfortunately, the economy affected our club’s target demographic to a significant degree, with ongoing corporate layoffs and overall finan-cial strain.” He continues, “The mental outlook of most of our members continues to be guarded and cautious related to the economy, and has been evident in their current spending habits compared to previous levels.”

Elite Sports Clubs owner Kay Yuspeh says that one of the silver linings of the economic downturn is that it’s been an ideal time for building and ren-ovating. “We have a big addition going on one of

our Wisconsin clubs, and the timing is very good,” she explains. “The bids came in low, because so many people are looking for work.”

“The most notable change in the economy this past year has been the gradual rise of consumer confidence,” says Scott Gillespie, President of Saco Sport & Fitness, located in Saco, Maine. “There still seems to be concern about the timeline of a recovery, but there is

no longer the palpable fear we saw last year that dramatically affected spending.” He adds, “As a result, we have seen an increasing sales trend over the past six months.”

“In the northeast, we were a bit slow to feel the full effects of the economic downturn,” notes Rick Beusman, President of Saw Mill Sports Manage-

ment in Mount Kisco, New York. “We felt them in late 2009. In the first quarter of 2010, the mood seemed to brighten, and people were again willing to commit to spending for a healthy lifestyle.”

In February 2010, IHRSA pledged i ts support of United States First Lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” initiative and praised Mrs. Obama for her leadership in tackling

the problem of childhood obesity, a long-standing issue that threatens both the health of America’s children and the future of our country.

“We are extremely grateful that Mrs. Obama has taken on the issue of childhood obesity,” says IHRSA President & CEO Joe Moore. “We encour-age all Americans to stand behind her in her efforts to stop the tide of childhood obesity, and to do what they can to help ensure healthy futures for our children and for our country.”

In 2009, IHRSA helped to protect the industry from harmful business regulation that would directly impact U.S. clubs’ bottom-lines on 19 occasions and helped enact legislation pro-moting the industry in 2 more instances. In fact, monitoring and tracking over 200 bills impacting the industry, IHRSA prevented any single piece of legislation that would adversely impact health club operations from becoming law. In addition, IHRSA helped to grow and promote the industry by help-ing to enact legislation that will increase the number of Americans who exercise. These triumphs are due, in large part, to the members of the Public Policy council, who pledged more than $1 million to support the Industry Defense Fund.

IHRSA is participating on a 19-member Joint Committee, facilitated by NSF International, to create a voluntary certification process for U.S. fitness facilities that will strengthen the industry and raise clubs’ standing as quality providers of safe and healthy exercise. “A good set of standards will give us more credibility in the medical com-munity, and physicians will be more likely to refer patients to health clubs,” explains Dr. Art Curtis, CEO of Millennium Partners Sports Club Manage-ment, LLC and chairman of IHRSA’s board of directors. “It will also increase the potential for more insurance reimbursements, and corporations will be more willing to subsidize memberships for their employees.”

Club operators are keeping a close watch on changes to the U.S. health care system. “We’re very hopeful that the regulatory environment will evolve in ways that encourage wellness and disease pre-vention, since we all know this is ultimately the only way to get spiraling health care costs under control,” says Curves’ president Mike Raymond. “We will continue to approach this as a significant

opportunity, recognizing that it may require new solutions and thinking on our part. This is really the lesson for the industry. No matter how much success you’ve achieved in your business, the need for continued change and evolution never ends.”

MEXICO

In January 2010, the Mexican government intro-duced a new campaign to battle obesity, which it estimates to cost the health system $3.2 billion per year. “Obesity and excess weight are one of the biggest health challenges that Mexico is facing today,” said President Felipe Calderón, who noted that Mexico had the largest number of overweight adults in the world, its children had the highest rates in the world for obesity, and diabetes was the number one cause of death in the country.

The new plan is based on a French project known as EPODE, which has shown success at reducing child obesity through physical activities, weight monitoring and promoting drinking water and eating fruit and vegetables.

“This presents clubs in Mexico with a tremen-dous opportunity, and their operators must be proactive,” says José Antonio Mársico, Director Ejecutivo for Body Systems México.

Reflecting on the past year, Mársico says there have been fewer fitness and sport activities, such as fewer conventions, races and sporting events. “The economy is still in recession, and the ongoing drug wars create a lot of insecurity,” he explains. “Many people don’t want to be outside their homes after 5:00 in the evening.”

On the upside, Go Fitness and Energy Fitness Mexico are promising new chains that have ambi-tious plans of expansion in the country.

“The relationship between price and service will be key in 2010,” Mársico says. “People will continue to think twice before paying for a club membership.” He adds, “The winners will be those businesses that offer extraordinary service at a fair price, and human talent will be more important than high-technology equipment.”

CANADA

“While in the eyes of the world, Canada fared very well during the first year of the global economic crisis, the unemployment rate is still above 10%,” notes David “Patch” Patchell-Evans, GoodLife Founder & CEO and outgoing Chairperson of IHRSA. “The further challenge now in our country is new government legislation that will have a devastating impact on fitness clubs.”

Patchell-Evans says the one-two punch is the restructuring of the sales tax (harmonized sales tax or HST) ranging to 13%, which would greatly increase

the cost to consumers of club memberships and fitness services. Sec-ondly, the proposed legislation for a retroac-tive music tariff will drastically increase the royalties fitness clubs have to pay to play music in their fitness classes and other club areas. “For a larger club, this translates into $75,000 per year,” he explains. “Both have the potential to put the average fitness club out of business.”

GoodLife Fitness has realized three significant achievements since 2009, in addition to celebrating its 30th anniversary. The company was recognized as one of Canada’s Top 10 Most Admired Corpo-rate Cultures for having a corporate culture that has enhanced performance and sustained a competitive advantage. GoodLife was also awarded Platinum Club member from Canada’s 50 Best Managed Companies, honoring seven consecutive years of outstanding management and fiscal performance. The fitness club of choice for Canada’s 2010 Olympic athletes, GoodLife Fitness boasted the most Olympians training in a fitness club chain across Canada during the Vancouver games.

Industry catalyst Mark Mastrov closed out 2009 with yet another major invest-ment, this one involv-ing NBA star Steve Nash and the largest club chain in British Columbia. Mastrov’s New Evolution Fitness Company (NEFC), an investment concern that focuses on the fitness industry, was one of the key inves-tors in the acquisition of Fitness World, a 13-c lub chain in British Columbia with a membership base of 90,000 members. Other investors included Nash, who already owns three Steve Nash Fitness Clubs, and Angelo, Gordon & Co., a private equity firm. Together, the investor group purchased Fitness World from its founder, Henry Polessky, for an

undisclosed sum. According to Mastrov, who pre-viously founded 24 Hour Fitness Worldwide, the newly formed organization is a sizeable one with well over $50 million in annual revenues. All 13 Fitness World locations were officially re-branded as Steve Nash Fitness World, and Polessky was retained to serve as director.

Music copyright fees remain a paramount concern in Canada. The Neighbouring Rights Collective of Canada (NRCC) has proposed a music tariff for the Canadian Fitness Industry of a $18.59 per member per year. “The foremost concern is that regardless of whether our industry wins or loses the cases either here or in Australia, the music industry will refine their greedy tactics and will continue to pursue outrageous licensing fees in other countries,” says IHRSA’s Meredith Poppler. “To stop this threat, IHRSA has contributed over $400,000 USD over the past two years to help fund the battles in Canada and Australia, paying for expert witness testimony, researching pay models and legal options, and more.”

South AmericaCurves International recently announced the creation of the South-ern Cone Cluster to integrate its operations in Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Bolivia. “We will operate from Buenos Aires, addressing the needs of all franchisees in these five countries,” notes Augustine Arola Nowell, president of Curves Argentina. The company aims to double the number of sites in South America and to

achieve the scale needed to introduce technological advances to the region’s current 22 Curves locations—16 in Argentina, five in Chile and one in Uruguay. Curves has 230 clubs in Brazil.

ECUADOR

Ecuador is still a very young market for the fitness industry, and there are numerous external factors that slow down its growth, according to Enrique La Motta, Director General of Phisique Wellness Club. The two foremost factors are government regulation and consumer behavior, he says.

“Last year, the government introduced a tax

package on all imported goods,” he explains. “The 65% tax on fitness machines and accessories currently makes it prohibitive for us to consider any purchases.” La Motta says he expects ongoing lobbying efforts to succeed in reducing this tax, perhaps by nearly half to 35%.

La Motta says that Ecuadorian consumers, in general, are neither educated about nor aware of the need for a healthy lifestyle. “There are approx-imately 500 to 600 gyms in the country,” he notes. “At an average of 200 members per club, that would mean there are no more than 120,000 club users, which is equivalent to less than 1% of the population.” He adds that there is a need for many more fitness professionals in the country.

CHILE

The economy in the region has been less affected than in Europe and the USA, according to Mauricio Musiet, General Manager for Sportlife. “The Chilean fitness industry remained strong and kept growing at a fast pace,” he explains. “We have had to be a little more flexible in terms of prices and forms of payment, but we have kept our members.”

Sportlife, the only health club company covering the country from north to south, surpassed its goal of building over 20 clubs with a total of 30,000 members before 2010, and today boasts 32 clubs with 40,000 members.

Musiet says the biggest challenge for the Chilean industry is the need for more professionalism. “The human resource factor is critical,” he says. “We’re sending our managers to IHRSA conven-tions and conferences in other countries, and we are bringing in speakers from other industries to train our people on customer service.”

In February 2010, a destructive 8.8-magnitude earthquake in Chile left hundreds of people dead and a long swath of the country in smoky rubble. While this earthquake was far stronger than the 7.0-magnitude one that ravaged Haiti the month prior, the damage and death toll were far less exten-sive, in part because of strict building codes put in place after devastating earthquakes in the past.

BRAZIL

Brazil has nearly 15,000 health clubs, second only in number to the United States. There has been an increase in the number of low-cost health clubs, which are getting their market niche, just as women-only health clubs have, notes Richard Bilton, President of Companhia Athletica, and IHRSA Board Director.

“Health club associations are also getting more and more organized, which in the medium term means better defenses and representative-ness to our sector,” he continues.


INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

In the second half of 2009, Brazilian clubs were strongly affected by the H1N1 influenza. “This resulted in drops in the number of active clients in most health clubs, year over year,” says Bilton. “In early 2010, the situation started improving.”

Waldyr Soares, the founder and president o f F i tness Bras i l , explains that while the Brazilian fitness indus-try is thriving, the profit

margins for most clubs are very low due to high taxes. “Brazil is notorious for overtaxing payroll,” he says.

“Differentiation is key to permanence in our marketplace,” adds Bilton.

Europe & AsiaIn March, during IHRSA’s convention, Christian Pierar, a strategic partner of IHRSA and chairman of the Belgium Fitness Federation, was named a special advisor to the IHRSA board of directors. “Christian has been active in the industry since 1980 as an owner, international consultant and presenter for dif ferent national and international associations,” says Hans Muench, Director of IHRSA Europe. “His commitment to help other business people in our industry be successful has led him to create and support such organizations as the Belgium Fitness Federation, Belgium Fitness

Employer Organization and the European Health and Fitness Association.”

Founded in 2007, IHRSA’s Europe Coun-cil continues to advise IHRSA on trends and opportunities. It is comprised of IHRSA members, including Pierar, who are leaders and influencers in their respective markets. Additional members include: Christophe Andanson (FHRSA, Planet Fitness and Les Mills), Maria Angeles (Sport Managers), David Minton (Leisure Database Company), Paul Eigenmann (Qualicert) and Anastasia Yusina (Strata Partners).

IHRSA Road Shows recently extended into Eastern Europe with a new partner in Poland, Sportwise, continuing the successful model which has taken IHRSA’s educational message to all four Scandinavian countries, France, Kuwait and India in the last three years.

AUSTRIA

“In the past years, the number of members in Austrian fitness clubs grew at an average of four percent,” says Gerhard Span, founder of Manhattan Fitness Clubs, with two loca-tions in Vienna, which recently celebrated its 20th anniversary. “Cur-rently, about 430,000 Austrians go to fitness centers.”

“Unfortunately, we cannot say the recession has passed yet,” he continues. “There are currently about 350,000 unemployed people in Austria, and experts say that there will be more unemployed persons in 2010.”

Fortunately, notes Span, Austrians tend not to cancel their fitness club memberships during economic crises. He cites a 2009 survey that found that Austrians would rather reduce their spending on vacations, cars or restaurants than on fitness.

IRELAND

In 2009, ILAM, the Leisure Industry Body for Sport, Fitness, Aquatics Facilities, Spa & Wellness, celebrated its 30th anniversary. In October, Dublin hosted the 9th Annual IHRSA European Congress. This event attracts industry leaders from Europe and beyond for four days of interaction, information and educa-tion. “These gatherings help suppliers and operators drive their

businesses forward and impact the communities they serve,” explains Muench.

Led by CEO Kilian Fisher, ILAM has begun the launch of REPS Ireland, the country’s first indepen-dent register of exercise professionals, so that clubs will know that they are employing quality, accred-ited fitness instructors. “We see the register as part of the effort to set more standards for our industry, and enable the consumer to get more value for their money,” explains Fisher, who also led the develop-ment of ILAM White Flag Award for Spa & Leisure, the Quality Club/Facility Certification standard in Ireland.

Unfortunately, Ireland’s strong economy, known as “The Celtic Tiger,” dropped from its peak to something near the bottom very rapidly, says Fisher. “We’ve seen job and salary cuts in the leisure sector and elsewhere, and the government has brought in two emergency budgets since the beginning of 2009,” he notes. “We may be heading to an unemployment rate of 16 percent, and some property prices have dropped as much as 40 percent.” As part of its emergency measures, the government has increased taxes on some individuals as much as 10 percent.

Fisher is hopeful for the future, and believes quality standards will improve. “Between the White Flag and the REPS Ireland Register, we’ll have more qualified instructors and better facilities,” he says. “I think pricing and programs offered will have to change, however, as this economy has taken away any complacency.”

RUSSIA

The Russian fitness market is very competitive with other European countries and has many growth opportunities. The industry generates USD $2.1

billion annually, which places Russia within the top 10 global fitness markets in terms of revenue.

“The industry is growing rapidly in Russia in response to increased demand for health club facilities spurred by a corresponding increase in public aware-ness of the health benefits of regular exercise,” says Alison O’Kane, IHRSA’s Associate Vice President of International Development. “Clubs are hungry for information to help them maximize their opportunities and meet consumer demand.”

In January 2010, IHRSA announced the appoint-ment of Leila Timergaleeva as an IHRSA International Ambassador to Russia/CIS countries. Currently, she is a club and regional manager at Complete Body Company, which is based in New York City and plans new projects in Russia, among other countries.

Planet Fitness, which has 41 facilities in Russia, totaling about 25 percent of the market share, is currently constructing four more clubs. “While most of the major players in the indus-try overcame the recession and stayed on the course, some smaller players went bankrupt,” notes Irina Razumova, chairperson of the Planet Fitness board of directors. “Others aban-doned plans for further development due to the high bank charges for loans—from 12 percent to 35 percent, depend-ing on the type of loan.”

“The Russian economy, which relies heavily on commodities such as oil, gas, metals and agricul-ture, has experienced significant devaluation,” explains Stephen Tharrett, CEO of the Russian Fitness Group. “The economy here is experiencing

“Even though capital is tight right now, our strong financial position will allow us to take advantage of the current economic environment to make strategic acqui-sitions and partner-ships that our partners cannot,” adds Olga Sloutsker, president and CEO of the World Class chain, which

merged in 2007 with FizKult to form the Russian Fitness Group. Strata Partners, led by CEO Anastasia Yusina, also plans to have 60 clubs in the country by the end of 2010.

JAPAN

In November, in coop-eration with Fitness Industry Association Japan (FIAJ), IHRSA held the 8th Annual IHRSA Asia-Pacific Forum in Tokyo. The definitive gathering of the Asia-Pacific fitness industry achieved record numbers with 350 attendees from 15 countries and four con-tinents; about twice as many as any other year in its history.

“This year’s Asia-Pacific Forum was a

tremendous success and surpassed all expecta-tions,” said John Holsinger, IHRSA Director, Asia-Pacific. “The key industry players in attendance showed a clear passion and hunger to

learn and share insight about today’s global health and fitness market.”

With 345 facilities, the Konami Sports & Life Co., Ltd., continues to be a dominant industry player. It is the largest club chain in Japan, and, in terms of its global standing, is the fifth largest in terms of number of clubs; fourth in total revenues; and ninth in number of members.

Australia/Oceania Fitness First Australia has opened its latest club in Five Dock, a suburb of Sydney, bringing its growing tally to 91. Siblings Justin McDonell and Jacinta McDonell Jiminez, the first non-U.S. master franchisees for Anytime Fitness, have exceeded their first-year projections for introducing the brand to Australia. In their first 18 months of business, the pair has sold more than 55 franchise territories; 23 clubs are already open and an additional 20 are expected to be open by midyear. The team has also sold five territories in New Zealand, where two facilities are already open. They intend to broaden Anytime Fitness’ pres-ence in the two countries to 300 clubs by 2014.

In Australia, the PPCA (Phonographic Performance Company of Australia) proposed a tariff on the Australian fitness industry that is equivalent to approximately $4.54 USD per member per month. The Tariff Tribunal in Australia spent five weeks in hearings on this proposed tariff increase. Efforts are underway to protect clubs from this harmful proposal.

CONCLUSION

Health clubs worldwide are feeling the impact of the global economic downturn, but are staying the course and adapting to changing market conditions.

“The future is promising because our industry is one full of entrepreneurs, individuals who are adept at identifying and filling needs,” says IHRSA’s Joe Moore. “They meet all challenges, overcome all obstacles, and succeed despite all barriers.”

The AmericasLong-thought to set the pace for all markets, the U.S. health club industry increased revenue by two percent to $19.5 billion. The number of health clubs declined slightly to 29,750, while membership remained statistically the same with 45.3 million members. Of these, roughly 23 percent, or 10.4 million, were new members. In addition, 7.2 million consumers used health clubs as non-members in 2009.

The Canadian market held steady, generating $2.1 billion in revenues with the patronage of an estimated 5.3 million members. GoodLife Fitness leads club companies in Canada with revenues of nearly $275 million gen-erated in 2009 from over 250 clubs. World Health was also a key player in 2009, generating $51 million from more than 100,000 members.

Latin American markets posted solid performances in 2009. In Brazil, nearly 4.7 million people attended 15,000 clubs in 2009, contributing to a market size of $1.6 billion. The health club industry in Argentina served over one million members in 5,200 facilities.

Europe Led by solid markets in the U.K., Germany, and the Netherlands, Europeans have placed a high value on health and fitness, evident by the four percent increase in club memberships from 40.7 million in 2008 to 42.5 million in 2009.

Results from an annual survey conducted by the Leisure Database Company shows a slight increase in number of U.K. clubs from 5,755 in 2008 to 5,795 in 2009. Membership also increased from 7.2 million in 2008 to 7.3 million in 2009. In addition, market size increased by $0.5 million to $5.7 million. >>

The global health club industry posted a solid performance in 2009. A near $70 billion industry, over 128,000 health clubs served 119 million members. The industry was particularly strong in Europe, where revenue reached $31 billion and 42.5 million consumers belonged to health clubs. In North America, 53.1 million members used 38,000 facilities. The

Asia-Pacific region has remained steady with over $10 billion generated in revenues and nearly 16 million members.

Budget and circuit-training chains have fueled industry growth for the German market. Mrs. Sporty finished the year with 338 clubs as McFit served nearly 1 million members in over 100 locations. Overall, the German market generated $3.4 billion in industry revenue through 5,900 clubs, which held a total of 7 million memberships. Recent agreements between DIFG and Creditreform may make credit more available to health club operators, potentially affecting in a future increase in facilities.

Fitness participation holds a strong presence in the Netherlands, evident by a 2007 study by WJH Mulier Institute that found roughly 2.9 million consumers used health and fitness clubs. In 2009, 2.4 million consumers belonged to 2,000 Dutch health clubs. According to the Marketing Report – Fitness Industry 2010 for the Netherlands, ten percent of clubs are part of a chain such as Fitness First or HealthCity. The trio of Optisport, Achmea and HealthCity constitute the key club companies growing the fitness market in the Netherlands.

Asia-Pacific Once regarded as an untapped market, the Asia-Pacific region is home to a number of successful club companies such as Central Sports and Konami in Japan and Ozone Fitness and Shenzhen Catic Wellness in China. Other notable players in the region include Australia’s Goodlife Operations and Lifestyle Fitness Australia.

The Japanese fitness market generated an estimated $3.4 billion in 2009 with 5,000 health clubs. According to Club Business Japan, new club openings were slow in 2009 as club closings and consolidation dominated health club business transactions. Club operators must find ways to attract the younger public, many of which dropped their memberships last year. The emergence of new, flexible membership options in Japan may prove helpful in attracting a younger population, typically more price-sensitive than veteran members.

China’s fitness market remains a leader in the Asia-Pacific region with over 3 million members frequenting 1,800 health clubs. According to a recent article on the Chinese fitness market in the IDEA Fitness Journal, a variety of group-oriented exercise pro-gramming is popular among consumers. Classes with elements of martial arts and dance along with yoga and Pilates are popular among members.

Over 2.5 million Australians belonged to one of 2,800 health clubs, adding to the profitability of the overall market, which generated $1.9 billion in 2009. Fitness Australia has found continued growth in the weight-loss circuit and personal training models in Australia. Women-only clubs such as Curves and Contours Express have flourished in Australia.

Last year proved to be a challenge to the global economy as a whole, but the fitness industry weathered economic woes with solid performance. Led by successful club companies and a consumer public in need of the stress-relieving benefits of exercise, global industry revenues were solid with increases in total number of memberships and health club facilities. With strong leadership and a firm understanding of consumer needs, global markets should anticipate further growth in 2010.

3 ways toRevolutionize Group Fitness with Fitness On Request™

ADVERTISEMENT

In 2007, gym owners from St. Paul, MN set out to solve a core problem with group tness in their own clubs: They needed a program to compete, but knew the “same old” approach wouldn’t sell memberships. They also found

standard programs were too expensive and inef cient. It led them to create Fitness On Request™ (FOR), which is their answer to these three big questions.1) How can our club decrease program costs?The problem with standard programs is that rooms are overcrowded 4-5 hours each day, but sit empty the rest of it. This is where FOR shines: it’s available whenever your rooms are – spreading out usage & increasing participation, which can drastically reduce overhead costs.2) How can our club make group tness UNIQUE? Group Fitness isn’t new anymore – and most clubs offer programs, often for free. FOR believes the “tie-breaker” in group tness these days is ease of access & exibility.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

“These days you nd a lot of people working unique hours that don’t quite t the standard group tness program schedule. Clubs need a way to meet those customers’ needs, and this product does just that,”

- Dave Kraai, President of Fitness On Request™________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

3) How can we decrease program management headaches?Adding exibility usually means adding instructors and management. FOR’s founders didn’t want to deal with that – not in today’s economy. They built a program manager into the kiosk that manages class schedules, equipment, & customer sign-up – and makes it available online!For more information and ideas on how the Fitness On Request kiosk can help you “Rethink Group Fitness”, visit www. tnessonrequest.com or call 800-497-3908.

Rethink Group Fitness Bring your program into

the 21st centuryFitness On Request™ is an

automated group fitness and training system designed to enhance group tness program exibility and participa-tion.

When your goal is just to sell a product, your Olympic bar design is finished when it’s “good enough”.

When your goal is per fection, you’re never finished, never satisfied, even 123 Design cycles later!

For example, a tensile strength of 150,000 PSI is “strong enough” for most manufacturers. We heat

treat our stainless steel bar to 218,000 PSI, because our tests tell us anything weaker will bend.

Most think bar stock is “straight enough” if it meets the mill standard of 89/1000 inch over the 7 foot

length of the bar. We fur ther straighten our bar to a tolerance of 10/1000 inch, because anything less

straight will cause rotational torque during heavy lifting. Most think there is a coating or plating that is

“durable enough”. We chose stainless steel because it needs no coating, so there’s nothing to peel

off, chip, or rust. Most think a bar is “safe enough” just because it's made of steel. We ultrasonic test

and magnetic par ticle test every bar to detect internal and external cracks that can cause the bar to

snap. The International Powerlifting Federation (I.P.F.) counts our stainless steel Olympic bar among the

very few that it approves for International Competition. We appreciate the endorsement, I.P.F., but we’re

pressing ahead with Design No. 124 anyway.
