Setting the standard in 24-7 Fitness!

Who? American Bodyworks is the premier 24-7 fitness franchise of coed, neighborhood clubs. Neighborhood clubs are fitness centers ranging in size from 4,500 to 7,500 square feet that can be found in strip malls in any neighborhood! American Bodyworks is also a "key" club which allows members to access the club at any time they want. Each member has a key card to give them access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

Most fitness centers today want their members to fit into their schedules. At ABW, we want to fit into our members schedules and being open 24 hours a day allows us to do that. Key clubs are the new wave of the fitness industry and we would like you to be a part of it!

What? American Bodyworks has the best equipment available 24-7! We offer a choice of Star Trac or Life Fitness and Hammer Strength machines including treadmills, ellipticals, and bikes with their own LCD screens! Free weights are often overlooked in 24-7 clubs, but not with us. We have plenty of them!

Every American Bodyworks will be outfitted with the same core group of equipment to help make members feel at home at any location. Our brand name equipment and the great look it provides will sell memberships for you alone! And, we can help make purchasing your equipment easy and affordable.

How? We want you to be a part of the American Bodyworks team and we will help you with everything to get your fitness center started. Our easy and affordable start-up program will allow you to get up and running and profitable in a short amount of time. We help you scout out a location, order equipment at our special discounted rate, teach you the necessary information at our ABW school, help with presales and hiring, and provide effective advertising and technical support!

Training and Support

Training Before you open, you will run the ABW school.

This is a very unique offer in the fitness industry. Under our model, anyone who has no experience in the fitness industry at all can learn how to run a health club. We teach you how to sell memberships, enter in contracts, reconcile your money, pick employees and trainers, and any other club operation necessary. Every new club can send one person to this week long seminar for no extra charge. After this training, you will feel confident when your doors open.

Support American Bodyworks offers temporary and full time workers that have been in the industry and know how we operate. This ranges from sales people to back end workers. These workers can work temporarily to boost productivity and further your training; or provide a needed service for an extended period of time!
