Club Fitness

Club Fitness also understands that championing a healthy lifestyle is about more than simply going to the gym. That’s why it is working with Metabolic Meals, a St. Louis company that offers pre-made healthy, grab-and-go meals “In three of our locations, we’ve piloted a program where we have Metabolic Meals coolers in our clubs,” Schreimann explains. “So our members can visit a Club Fitness and get a workout in, before going to the Metabolic Meals menu and purchasing a meal for the day or the week – all pre-made, pre- packaged, healthy options.” As well as offering healthy meals, Club Fitness also provides services around post-workout recovery. Its gyms offer hydro massage lounges, red light therapy, and several other methods to boost recovery. “I think there’s an opportunity to potentially expand into a medical spa partnership as well,” Schreimann adds. “And we’re also working with local physical therapy locations and cultivating partnerships to work with them and their clients.” The exploration of different partnership opportunities is indicative of a company that believes in supporting local businesses. Rather than selling branded merchandise, Club Fitness is more interested in highlighting the work being carried out by other firms in the area, including non-profit organizations. Looking three to five years down the road, Club Fitness plans to continue expanding, increasing its number of gyms and employee-owners, both inside the St. Louis area, and beyond it. Even as it grows, however, Club Fitness promises never to lose sight of its community focus. “Our motto is Lift Local,” says Schreimann. “We’re about so much more than lifting weights. We’re about lifting our communities, lifting our employees, and lifting our members to a happier, healthier life.” CLUB F I TNESS
