Crunch Fitness

We're like, what's great today, two years from now, like the trend's kind of over and people move on to the next thing.

I go to a YMCA, it's a very nice YMCA, and there's a Crunch Fitness just open, which is a franchise.

And all of their ads, by the way, They're marketing geniuses, like the Crunch brand.

They literally had canvassers out getting people to sign up for memberships for like three months before it opened.

Oh, yeah.

And they were like five miles.

I remember stopping to get gas at a Wawa and I see someone walking up to me and I'm like, what is this person trying to sell me at Wawa? And it was someone from the Crunch Fitness that was opening up.

five miles away and i was like what are you doing here and what are you doing at wawa and they would be in that giant shopping center where they're opening i remember coming out out from chipotle and then like i'm like trying to hide and run in my car so i would avoid talking to them but um you know they oh they they open up and now all these people i'm talking to these people at the y and like oh i haven't seen you they're like oh yeah we joined the crunch and And so it's like there's just that that that competition and fitness is different than food in the sense where it's like, OK, you might still go to multiple food places.

can go to multiple of the same branch.

I go to the Greenbrook Crunch, and I go to the Crunch right here in Aberdeen.

I used to go to the Crunch in Woodbridge.

And now when the Wolf Gym opens up down the street, I'm going to

work.

So I knew early that this job was not going to pay my bills, right? I think it was like $330 a day, and I knew it was going to end in three months.

So the guy I was living with was like, look, the main gym, and at the time it was Crunch.

It was on 13th and Washington.

Mm-hmm.

The company remains on track to open 14 new clubs in 2026, with nearly all of its planned 2027 locations already under construction.

Crunch Fitness has officially reached 600 locations worldwide.

The fitness franchise now serves more than 4.5 million members globally, with its milestone location opening in the Phoenix metropolitan area.

That opening also marks the 100th Crunch location operated by franchise partner CR Fitness Holdings.

partners as a category yeah like people asking pickleball

anyone not busy late night planet fitness workouts wait what crunch fitness workout partner and you know biking buddy on craigslist yeah a running partner let's just click on one and see

it so interesting because I'm just like, oh my God, wasn't there the Craigslist serial killer? You know what I mean? Like you can't trust anything anymore.

Hey, anonymous guy, you need to be careful out there because you don't fucking know who this person is.

Dahmer type shit.

Yeah.

This is just a workout partner and it says, anyone want to work out with me at Crunch Fitness on this street? Just got a membership.

It makes me think like, oh, are you lonely? I know it is a little sad.

So we partnered with the landlord.

Ultimately, we selected for the ownership selected Crunch Fitness.

They'll be open in about a month.
