Fitness Together to Host Franchise Expansion Event in Boston April 8

HIGHLANDS RANCH, Colo. – (March 31, 2010) – More people in Massachusetts are getting in shape with the help of a personal trainer than any other state in the nation for the rapidly-expanding Fitness Together chain. The Fitness Together Franchise Corporation, which specializes in one-on-one personal training, has 51 operating franchised studios in Massachusetts and has announced plans to award another 12 locations in the region over the next year.

“It’s our final phase of development for our strongest market in the country,” says Bob Haimes, executive vice president and chief growth officer for Fitness Together.

Fitness Together offers a unique approach to fitness and nutrition that goes beyond traditional personal training. One-on-one sessions customized for each client’s goals take place in private workout suites. For many who unsuccessfully tried big box gyms or fad diets, Fitness Together offers a solution with sustainable results, which has allowed the brand to grow in popularity.

“It’s a win-win,” explains Haimes. “Customers in Massachusetts are taking control of their health and wellness in record numbers at our Fitness Together locations. And our franchise owners are taking control of their careers as well by owning their own studios and joining a powerful brand.”

Fitness Together will host a franchise expansion event from 10 a.m. to noon on Thursday, April 8, at the Marriott in Newton to visit with interested franchise prospects. The company is targeting fitness professionals who want to advance their careers, fitness enthusiasts with strong business skills, and corporate evacuees who want to own their own business.

Honored as one of Dun & Bradstreet’s “AllBusiness Franchise AllStars” for 2010, Fitness Together includes 357 studios across the network and expects to be sold out of available franchise territories in Massachusetts in the next 12 months.
