About Gym Economics

Specialist commercial thinking for independent fitness businesses.

Gym Economics exists to examine the economics of running an independent fitness business as a whole.

Rather than focusing on a single marketing channel or individual cost category, we consider how revenue, member economics, acquisition, retention, technology, procurement, payments and operations interact.
