Accessibility
The mission of 24 Hour Fitness is to "help people change their lives through fitness." This includes individuals who need to lose weight as well as elite athletes. To achieve this goal, 24 Hour Fitness has increased public access by becoming the first chain of fitness clubs to have facilities that are open 24 hours per day. The company further increases availability by offering plan options that allow members to visit any of their gym locations in several states and countries.
Membership
24 Hour Fitness offers different membership plans. Its promotions change regularly, and specific prices and plans vary by club. You can find the club that is most convenient for you and check offers for membership online or by calling the company. The price of membership depends on factors such as location, the number of club locations you would like to be able to access, and the number of other family members on your plan. 24 Hour Fitness does not require long-term contracts, and you can sign up for a free seven-day trial membership.
