Little did she know, she wouldn’t just work with the corporate team, but she would also become a peer when she went on to open her own locations. “I had an interview with <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-markowicz-cfc-9a87592a/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=from-employee-to-franchisee-fitness-premier-247-clubs-franchisees-reflect-on-their-success-with-the-brand-2715746" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Jason</a> [Markowicz, CEO of Fitness Premier]. He was very confident in his vision, and he instilled that confidence in other people. He knows where he wants to be. There were so many obstacles that could have prevented him from reaching his goals, but he pushed through. When you’ve got that leadership and an equally inspiring staff around you, you feel secure.”Schunke’s husband, Joshua, had held a position at a large corporate health fitness center before but quickly fell in love with what Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs was doing in smaller towns across Illinois.“The towns where Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs are located have a population of roughly 6,000 to 12,000 people. I think the biggest thing with the brand is that it becomes a part of the communities,” he said. “I think it’s a great business model. They have 13 locations right now, and I am looking to maybe someday own 13 locations myself. Fitness Premier started with a focus on really owning your 24/7 club and building community. You either interact with people face-to-face, or it’s all faceless. That’s the whole reason why I bought in. I wanted to feel like I had that connection to my business.”<h4>Fitness Premier’s Franchisee Focus&nbsp;</h4>Markowicz succeeds at forming such a franchisee-focused organization because he has been a franchisee that suffered setbacks. Markowicz owned a series of Massage Envy franchises but sold his stores after feeling left behind by the brand’s leaders. Now, he’s more focused than ever on helping those around him become business owners.&nbsp;“Hands down, what separates us from other franchises is the willingness of our corporate team to help us, said <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/samantha-gorman-a3693b129/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=from-employee-to-franchisee-fitness-premier-247-clubs-franchisees-reflect-on-their-success-with-the-brand-2715746" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Samantha Gorman</a>, who owns a club in Monee, Illinois. Jason would pick up the phone anytime I’d call him. He focuses on the growth development of our team. He’s always made a point of being there for us and offering advice. When he first approached me about the opportunity, I felt really confident.”The fitness industry is full of passionate people who excel at leading workouts or managing a club, but Fitness Premier brings together the business and franchising know-how to support these people to pursue their dreams.“This was my club before I ever bought it,” <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/tara-juzeszyn-201b28110/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=from-employee-to-franchisee-fitness-premier-247-clubs-franchisees-reflect-on-their-success-with-the-brand-2715746" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Tara Juzeszyn</a>, owner of the Beecher, Illinois club said. Juzeszyn had been working at her fitness center for years before she came on as a franchisee, and Markowicz took notice of her talent and energy. “I was emotionally invested in the club and the people here. Our fitness centers are a home away from home for a lot of people. There’s a feeling of family here.”For Juzeszyn, becoming a franchisee just affirmed that feeling of ownership and belonging she had felt long before.&nbsp;<h4>Fitness Premier’s Leaders View Franchising As Community Building</h4>“Our model is all about being a resource for the community and being there to help people reach their goals,” said <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/rick-king-3954a1143/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=from-employee-to-franchisee-fitness-premier-247-clubs-franchisees-reflect-on-their-success-with-the-brand-2715746" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Rick King</a>, the brand’s VP and also a multi-unit owner. “We knew that we had a product and a model that worked. We knew it worked well in smaller markets but could also compete in larger markets too where there are other big fitness concepts.”Looking back at each franchisee’s defining moment when they decided to franchise with Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs, the result becomes clear: Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs makes everyone from customers to employees to franchisees feel like they’re in the inner circle.&nbsp;As the brand hopes to grow across the region, now is the time to get in on the ground floor of the growing brand and become part of the Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs community.“People may say we’re doing too much to help our franchisees, but I wish we could do more,” said King. “We took a perspective early on in deciding to franchise the business that we want this to work. We want our franchisees to be profitable and successful. We’d rather have 10-20 franchisees with multiple units vs. 100 franchisees who are not as invested.”About Fit For You FranchisingFit For You Franchising is a franchisee-first franchisor and franchisee consultancy.

As&nbsp;<a href="https://fitnesspremierclubs.com/own-a-fitness-premier/">Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs</a> continues to grow beyond its Midwest roots, Florida is a new priority, particularly in the Tampa Bay and Sarasota markets. The decision is driven by member behavior, population trends and the ability to enter growing communities with a model that’s already been validated.“We started our search in the Florida market a couple of years ago,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/rick-king-3954a1143/">Rick King</a>, vice president of&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/fitness-premier/info">Fitness Premier</a>. “We were really amazed by the percentage of the community that’s a member at a fitness center in Florida compared to Illinois. It’s drastically different.”King says that Florida’s population tends to place a stronger emphasis on fitness, personal wellness and consistency, creating a deeper pool of potential members. That cultural alignment matters for a brand built around engagement, coaching and long-term results.“Florida has people whose mentalities are more along the lines of fitness and personal wellness,” King said. “So there’s a lot more of those we would consider potential members.”That demand is already translating into growth on the ground. In 2025, Fitness Premier opened its first Florida location in Sarasota, owned by franchisee Dani Stiegelmeyer. The opening gave the brand an early foothold on the Gulf Coast as it builds momentum across the Tampa Bay and Sarasota markets.<h2>A Market Where Demand and Growth Intersect</h2>While Florida isn’t the only region Fitness Premier is evaluating, Tampa Bay and Sarasota stand out as markets where growth, real estate opportunity, and fitness demand intersect.“There are a lot more members in those markets because a higher percentage of the population is focused on exercise and fitness,” King said. “So that’s kind of an easy opportunity for us.”Beyond demand, the brand looks closely at how markets are expanding and where gaps exist. Tampa Bay and Sarasota continue to attract new residents, creating opportunities for well-positioned fitness concepts to establish themselves early.“When we look at the real estate opportunities, the rental opportunities, the gaps in the markets and how much those markets are growing, there’s a real opportunity to establish yourself where the growth is going,” King said. “You get in there, do a good job and secure that market for the future.”<h2>The Type of Owners Fitness Premier Wants in Florida</h2>Fitness Premier is looking for the right operators to lead those locations. In Florida, that means owners who bring discipline and a team-first mentality.“We’ve always believed our ideal franchisees have an athlete’s mindset,” King said. “You win as a team. You’re competitive. You’ll put in the effort. You’ll constantly be improving yourself and being better.”That mindset doesn’t require an athletic background. Instead, it’s about how owners approach business, leadership and growth.“We’ve been talking to some potential franchisees who have never been athletes in their lives, but they have that entrepreneurial spirit and all the mindset qualities we’re looking for,” King said.<h2>Reducing the Time From Signing to Opening</h2>One of the advantages for franchisees entering Tampa Bay or Sarasota is the amount of work Fitness Premier has already completed behind the scenes. For identified priority markets, the brand doesn’t start from scratch.“We already have our real estate team doing market analysis,” King said. “We have performers ready to go. We have sites available for those markets.”That preparation allows new owners to move faster and with more confidence.“We’ve already done some performance analysis and demographic analysis,” King said. “We’re not talking in theories or guessing at what that market can do.”As a result, the timeline from franchise agreement to opening is significantly shortened.“It’ll shorten the time frame pretty drastically since we’ve done a lot of the prework already,” King said.<h2>A Strategic Entry Point in Florida</h2>For Fitness Premier, Tampa Bay and Sarasota represent more than expansion dots on a map. They reflect markets where culture, growth and preparation align — and where franchisees can enter with momentum already built in.By pairing high-demand regions with upfront real estate work and hands-on support, Fitness Premier is positioning Florida franchise owners to launch faster, compete effectively and grow with their communities for the long term.To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit:&nbsp;<a href="https://ownafitnesspremier.com/.">https://ownafitnesspremier.com/.</a>&nbsp;

Why Fitness Premier Is Targeting Tampa Bay and Sarasota for Expansion

Fitness Premier is prioritizing Tampa Bay and Sarasota because Florida’s fitness-focused culture, population growth and market gaps create strong conditions for long-term gym ownership.

fitness-premier-tampa-sarasota-franchise-expansion

<a href="https://fitnesspremierclubs.com/own-a-fitness-premier/">Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs</a> is heading into 2026 after a steady year of growth. In 2025, the brand signed six franchise agreements, including one gym conversion. One location is already open and the remaining four locations are expected to open in early 2026, allowing the brand to grow while keeping a close eye on how each location performs.“That puts us in a position to grow our network by the mid-20% range in 2026,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/rick-king-3954a1143/">Rick King</a>, president of&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/fitness-premier/info">Fitness Premier</a>. “That’s really healthy growth for us from a footprint standpoint.”Fitness Premier has spent much of its time growing in smaller and tertiary markets that larger gym brands tend to pass over, while also moving into a few metro areas where a different type of gym can stand out. As a result, the brand isn’t forced to compete on low prices or size alone.<h2>Same-Store Performance That Signals Durability</h2>Beyond new openings, Fitness Premier’s existing locations are showing consistent performance gains.&nbsp;“This is the second year in a row that we’ve hit over 10% same-store revenue growth across the network,” said King. “Some of these locations have been open for 20 years, so to still see that kind of performance is something we’re really excited about.”That level of consistency mirrors what many gym owners are seeing day to day. More people are committing to fitness, spending more on their health, and looking for gyms that provide structure and support instead of a hands-off experience.<h2>Conversions as a Scalable Growth Opportunity</h2>One of the bigger developments in 2025 was Fitness Premier’s move into gym conversions, including a location in Bozeman, Montana, that is now in the process of joining the brand. The owners are keeping full ownership while shifting to Fitness Premier’s systems and pricing model.“They’re great operators and great trainers, but they were struggling to see how to scale,” King said. “What they saw value in was our model, our branding, our marketing and the ability to take their business to the next level.”The conversion is expected to serve as a proof point for other independent gym owners who want to expand without starting from scratch. The model allows owners to keep control of their business while gaining the structure needed to expand to additional locations.<h2>Ownership for Entrepreneurs Who Want Control and Meaning</h2>Fitness Premier’s franchise model continues to draw owners who want more than a paycheck. Many are looking at a second location, putting profits back into the business and buying real estate as they build long-term wealth through ownership.“There are people who want to control their own destiny, control their income, and do something they feel proud of,” King said. “This model gives them the ability to do that without putting a ceiling on what they can earn.”Fitness Premier supports franchisees from the early planning stages through daily operations. Owners also work closely with one another, sharing insights and experience as part of the network.<h2>A Purpose-Driven Model in a Crowded Industry</h2>While much of the fitness industry has shifted toward low-cost, low-engagement models, Fitness Premier has remained intentional about the member experience. The brand emphasizes coaching, amenities, and programs designed to help members make measurable progress in their health journeys.“We’re very intentional about the member experience and the value we’re delivering, even though it’s a harder model to run,” said King.<h2>Why 2026 Is a Strategic Entry Point</h2>Looking ahead, Fitness Premier’s priority is execution. Internally, the focus is on ensuring new locations open on solid footing and meet or exceed franchisee expectations. Externally, the brand plans to award approximately five additional franchises in 2026, maintaining a pace that allows for hands-on support.“We’re not trying to sell a hundred franchises in a year,” said King. “We want to grow at a manageable pace so our franchisees get the attention and service they deserve.”For entrepreneurs evaluating their next move, Fitness Premier’s 2026 vision offers a clear message: ownership is not just about opening a gym, but about building a business that supports financial independence, community impact and long-term growth.To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit:&nbsp;<a href="https://ownafitnesspremier.com/.">https://ownafitnesspremier.com/.</a>&nbsp;

Fitness Premier Enters Montana with First Conversion Deal in Bozeman

For the operating partners behind&nbsp;<a href="https://fitnesspremierclubs.com/own-a-fitness-premier/">Fitness Premier 24/7 Clubs</a> in Grundy County, Illinois, the future of fitness goes far beyond lifting heavier weights or adding more machines to the floor. Franchisees Dana Odegaard and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/brent-bergeson-535180156/">Brent Bergeson</a> are expanding the traditional gym model to include Fitness Premier’s Relax and Restore across clubs in&nbsp;<a href="https://fitnesspremierclubs.com/locations/minooka/">Minooka</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://fitnesspremierclubs.com/locations/coal-city/">Coal City</a> and soon,&nbsp;<a href="https://fitnesspremierclubs.com/locations/morris/">Morris</a>. This gives many members something they didn’t even realize they were missing: intentional recovery.&nbsp;Relax and Restore at&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/fitness-premier/info">Fitness Premier</a> is a dedicated recovery space designed to help members recharge after workouts and daily stress. These rooms combine calming, easy-to-use recovery therapies — like heat, massage, compression and light therapy — to ease sore muscles, improve circulation and support overall wellness. It’s the perfect place to slow down, reset and let recovery work hand-in-hand with your fitness routine.“It kind of brings a different dynamic to the gym,” Bergeson said. “You come here to work out, but we also have this other avenue that’s really focused on recovery and restoring your body versus just beating it up.”Relax and Restore has become a meaningful business driver for Fitness Premier franchisees. By adding a premium wellness layer to the traditional gym model, Odegaard and Bergeson have created a clear upgrade path that supports higher membership adoption, stronger retention and more consistent usage across the week. The recovery suites also give clubs a built-in differentiator in competitive markets, positioning Fitness Premier as more than just a place to work out.<h2>Building a Recovery Experience Members Actually Use</h2>The Relax and Restore suites were designed to be more than a checklist of trendy equipment. Every amenity was selected based on usage, feedback and real-world impact.Human Touch massage chairs quickly became one of the most popular features across all clubs. Even after transitioning away from hydro massage beds, member response was overwhelmingly positive.In addition to massage chairs, members have access to saunas, red light therapy, jet compression boots, percussion massage guns and salt chambers — all positioned as part of a complete post-workout routine, not a luxury add-on.<h2>Location-Specific Amenities That Elevate the Experience</h2>While each Grundy County club offers a consistent set of recovery tools, the Minooka location stands out with additional amenities that give members more options in how they recover.One of those features is the Frost Locker, which delivers the benefits of cold exposure without the setup or intensity of a traditional cold plunge. It offers a more accessible way to experience cold therapy, especially for members who are curious about recovery trends but want something simple and approachable.“Cold plunge is a really popular thing right now,” Odegaard said. “But the Frost Locker gives you a lot of the same benefits with way more ease of access.”For members looking for a more traditional contrast therapy experience, Minooka also offers the Fire &amp; Ice Lounge, which pairs an infrared sauna with a cold plunge in the same space. This setup allows members to move between heat and cold to support circulation, muscle recovery and overall relaxation.“If you want a more authentic experience, we do have the cold plunge and an infrared sauna together,” Bergeson said. “You can bounce back and forth between the two. It's called our Fire &amp; Ice Lounge.”<h2>Letting Member Feedback Lead the Way</h2>Rather than guessing what members might want, Odegaard and Bergeson rely on constant feedback and usage data to guide decisions.“We’re tracking how much use each thing is getting,” Bergeson said. “Those massage chairs are so highly used that we’re already talking about getting another one in Minooka.”That approach has translated directly into membership adoption. Since launching Relax and Restore, roughly 50% to 70% of members across their clubs now use the recovery amenities.“It just shows us that this is a category people really want to have access to,” Odegaard said. “More than half of our new members are joining on the membership that includes these amenities.”<h2>Collaboration Without a One-Size-Fits-All Mandate</h2>While Fitness Premier’s leadership team gives operators flexibility to test new ideas, collaboration across the system plays a major role in shaping future upgrades.“We’re always talking with other clubs that have had Relax for quite some time,” Bergeson said. “Asking them what’s working, what people like and what trends they’re seeing.”That collaboration extends beyond recovery, allowing operators to share insights on new technology and emerging member preferences, with successful ideas often spreading organically throughout the network.<h2>Redefining the Purpose of the Gym</h2>One of the biggest surprises for the team has been how many members were unfamiliar with recovery tools before Relax and Restore launched.“We assume everybody knows about these things, but we're constantly getting members in every day that don't know about these recovery tools and things that can absolutely change their life and change their workouts and the way that they see results in the gym,” Odegaard said.&nbsp;By educating members through staff training, in-club materials and trial periods, the team has reframed the gym as a place not just to push harder, but to feel better leaving than when you arrived.“Everyone looks at the gym as hard work,” Bergeson said. “Now we can say, yes, you come in and work hard, but let’s take care of your body too. That longevity aspect changes how people experience the gym.”To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit:&nbsp;<a href="https://ownafitnesspremier.com/.">https://ownafitnesspremier.com/.</a>&nbsp;

With a strong background in fitness, sports and marketing, Stiegelmeyer is excited to bring&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/fitness-premier/info">Fitness Premier’s</a> community-focused approach to Florida for the first time.&nbsp;The gym is located at 3530 Clark Road, just outside Gulf Gate Estates in South Sarasota.

Nearby landmarks include the intersection of Beneva Road and Clark Road, with easy access from U.S. Route 41.

Sarasota is one of my favorite places I've lived so far. I actually used to work right across the street, so I know the area and all the businesses really well.”As Stiegelmeyer and her team prepare for the opening, updates to the space are well underway. Fresh paint and design changes are being finalized, and she is eager to transform the gym into a space that reflects Fitness Premier’s signature clean and welcoming style.Fitness Premier’s strong corporate support and emphasis on transparency stood out to Stiegelmeyer when choosing to join the brand.

You might have classes elsewhere, but not smaller, personal training groups like this.”Building a sense of community is a major priority for Stiegelmeyer, who views fitness as an important part of life for busy professionals, parents and business owners alike. She hopes to create a welcoming space where members feel connected not just by their workouts, but by the shared experiences of everyday life. “We're all in this together,” she said.In the short term, Stiegelmeyer’s focus is on ensuring a smooth opening and making sure every member feels confident and comfortable from day one. Long term, she has her sights set on expansion. “We would like to, down the road, have more than one,” she said.&nbsp;Ahead of the opening, Stiegelmeyer and her team are planning presale membership opportunities and considering options like a hard hat tour to give prospective members a sneak peek of the renovations. The goal is to show the community the transformation and invite them to be part of something new and exciting.The Sarasota Fitness Premier 24/7 Club will deliver a personalized, supportive fitness experience designed to empower members and strengthen community ties.
