According to Deutsche Bank research,
"...there are not
enough clubs to serve the growing market of aging baby
boomers...Building more clubs will be a necessity to meet the growing
demand."
IHRSA's Guide to the Health Club Industry for
Lenders & Investors states,
"...from 2002 to 2012, there is reason
to believe that the health club industry will be buoyant..."
The
report titled "Fit For Growth" by Mark Rupe an analyst for Ryan Beck
and Co., states that
"...the fitness industry is fit for continued
growth due to several underlying factors, such as favorable
demographics, rampant obesity, increased awareness, and higher
healthcare costs."
IHRS says
"There is every indication that women’s
interest in health and fitness is beginning to transcend all
generational barriers, and that women’s participation in health clubs
will become, if anything, even more pronounced in the future than it is
today."
