Gym
Going to the gym was once viewed as a fringe health benefit accessible to few and understood by even less. Over the years, access to gyms has grown to serve most communities all over the world. Gyms draw varied clientele from beginners trying to shed extra pounds after the new year, to fanatics who join specialized gyms for specific performance outcomes. And of course, many utilize gyms as a sort of spa to access pools, hot tubs, saunas and steam rooms. As a business, gyms come in all sizes and iterations. They can range from small boutique studios to locations with multi-level compounds with several fitness classes, spa services and a wide array of exercise equipment. Some gyms are attached to exclusive country clubs. The professionals who own and operate these businesses vary from private operators to municipalities and public corporations.
The size and space required to accommodate a gym and to provide members with a motivational environment where they can practice their exercise of choice comes with varying costs. Gym owners and operators must maintain facilities and equipment. They have ongoing overhead costs to keep gyms in proper order. Rooms and workout areas need to be kept clean and any damage needs to be fixed on a regular basis. Gyms employ trainers, sales and account managers, administrative and office staff, general laborers and janitors. On premise software and software-as-a-service (SaaS) systems handle employee management, membership and ticketing services, training scheduling, accounting, billing and gym subscription payments. These systems often include fixed point of sale devices at the gym shop, handheld mobile devices for on premise servers and to online engagement for booking specialized rooms and sessions.
