Retro Fitness currently has around 200 gyms open or in development, and it's eyeing at least 1,000 following a full-scale rebrand.
For its report, IHRSA examined data and compared health clubs, gyms, and studios that were open from March 2020 to December 31, 2021.
Senators Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) and Jerry Moran (R-KS) want gyms and fitness centers to have their own relief fund (The GYMS Act), similar to ones set aside for live entertainment venues and restaurants.
Gyms and fitness centers would be able to apply for grants to recoup up to 45 percent of 2019 revenue or $20M to replace lost 2020 revenue.
