The Health Club Industry:
On The Rise
The health club business has never been stronger. From 1990 to 2007, the number of total
health club members more than doubled, to over 42 million.
In addition, more health club members are using their health club more often.
The percentage of health club members who are “active” (visit their club, on average, 2x/
week) nearly tripled from 1990 to 2007.

In 2009 the health club industry is projected to grow by nearly 3%. Trends such as the
health needs of aging Baby Boomers, child obesity, and increased media attention to
health and diet ensure that the industry will remain in a growth mode for years to come.

“Our messaging focuses on balance and proper nutrition,
so health club members seemed a logical and important
audience. Not only are they concerned with proper nutrition
and generally open to credible health information, but
serve as influencers within their communities.”
Jennifer Burke - VP and Account Director, Mullen
Active Health Club Members:
Setting the Pace
Active health club members are the very picture of the perfect consumer.
According to MRI:
• Nearly 73% (US Pop. 60%) of active health club members are between
the ages of 18-49.
• They have an average household income over $90,000 (U.S. Pop. $69,000).
• They are characterized as being lifestyle ambassadors and purchase influencers.
“ We were trying to reach people in our target that
could help generate a strong buzz for Nip/Tuck,
influencing others to watch it. Health club
members hit our target dead-on.”
