ONE OF AMERICA'S FASTEST-GROWING FITNESS COMPANIES IS COMING TO ROSWELL

Youfit Health Clubs is about to open its sixth new club in the Atlanta area - this one in Roswell. And more are on the way.

Youfit (www.youfithealthclubs.com) has already opened new clubs in Norcross, Kennesaw, Douglasville, Buford, and Suwanee, and all are doing very well. Now the company’s opening a club in Roswell, at 10930 Crabapple Road (Festival Village Plaza) - its 59th in America. And a second new Norcross club is coming in another month or two.

Youfit operates on a business model that’s unusual in the tradition-bound
health club industry.

"We’ve tried to offer a concept – and an experience – that’s much different than the usual health club,” says company Founder/President Rick Berks. “We’re geared to the average person who just wants to stay in shape, rather than bodybuilders or ‘gym rats’; we even have a ‘no-grunt’ policy! We don’t have long-term contracts; you pay month-to-month. We don’t have any salespeople…so there’s no one pressuring you to join. And our goal is to have the Greenest clubs in America. For example, when you walk in, you’ll be walking on floors made of recycled tires or Nike ‘grind’ - recycled sneakers!”

The “Youfit” name is indicative of the company’s philosophy. These are clubs where “you” can “fit” in, without feeling uncomfortable, and without dealing with pushy salespeople. The equipment is all new, and all American-made. And the fees are extremely reasonable.

"North Georgia has been our priority this year,” Rick Berks says. “We’re delighted with the results. And we’re not done yet!”
