world is struggling to find it's place in the market right now that is for sure since most are pretty much just basic gyms - no pools etc - but trying to attract the mainstream crowd which now expect a lot more.
a lot of them are turning changing into planet fitness gyms too...

I have only seen Gold's turn to PF (Planet Fitness).
I haven't heard anything about the buy-out of the World Gym name at our gym. ???

At my worlds things are fine.....when you join here you can use 2 other world gyms in surrounding communities which is nice...different equipment...different people with ILS ;D

World Gym was bought by the Planet Fitness franchise
-
The World's in my area switched to Planet Fitness over the past few months.
-
same here. Palm Harbor worlds gym bought out. I shudder to think of what they might do to it. Seeing as they discourage "grunting" so that people can "focus on their own workout". Is'nt that why I'm grunting, because I'm "focusing?"
Finding a real gym is going to be getting tougher....

"Planet Fitness" is one of the worst names ever for a so-called gym. They should require everyone to wear pink while they're at it.
