Gym Equipment Lease

A Strong Industry

With the American gym market bringing in just under $31 billion a year, there are lots of fitness enthusiasts looking to jump into this booming industry.  Helping people achieve their fitness goals can be a gratifying experience while also being quite profitable.  There are many things to take in to consideration before starting a gym. Type of gym, location, insurance, gym equipment to purchase, hiring trainers, and more!  Read below as we  briefly address a few of those many items and explain how leasing your gym equipment might be ideal.

Types of Gyms

People are getting creative with how they choose to exercise.  Nowadays you have options.  Pilates, Crossfit, Bootcamps are just a few of the different types of gyms people are going to several times a week to get in shape.  As a result, fitness enthusiasts are drifting away from the traditional “mega” gyms in search of more variety with more of a community feel.

Hiring the Best

The hiring of trainers is also an essential element of starting a gym.  This can be on the same level of importance as the equipment you purchase for your gym.  Their knowledge and enthusiasm can influence your members to achieve goals and position your gym to compete with other top gyms.  Likely you will need several trainers to provide assistance to your members throughout the day.

Getting the Most out of your Gym Equipment

You need to fill your gym with equipment that will allow your members to perform a variety of exercises and movements.  Many pieces of equipment are universal and will work for all members. This includes equipment like treadmills, reformers, and rowers.  Then there are other pieces of gym equipment that are weight specific.  For example, dumbbells, kettlebells, and weight plates have a range of sizes that need to be purchased to accommodate all members of your gym.  Additionally, there must be enough equipment to accommodate the volume of attendees.  Lastly, gym equipment can vary in quality and is constantly improving as new models are introduced.  You will need to remain current with the latest gym equipment to compete with other gyms in your area.

Leasing exercise equipment is becoming more popular in the industry.  The ability to upgrade will help your gym from suffering from dated equipment.  Having the newest exercise equipment will encourage potential clients to join your gym.  This is why a fitness equipment lease is ideal when you are thinking about starting your gym.

Lastly, think of the wear and tear gym equipment faces.  As you probably have noticed from stepping into gyms, the equipment takes a beating.  Weights are dropped, equipment sweated on, and excessive miles on treadmills are just a few things to consider.
