ATLANTA, Ga. —&nbsp;<a href="https://workoutanytimefranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=acs-partnership-2730732" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Workout Anytime</a>, the premium 24/7 fitness franchise with more than 190 locations nationwide, announced a national partnership with the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cancer.org/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=acs-partnership-2730732" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">American Cancer Society</a> during its 2025 Franchise Conference in Atlanta, Georgia.&nbsp;“<a href="https://1851franchise.com/workoutanytime/info">Workout Anytime</a> is more than just a gym. We are a community — and communities thrive when we give back,” said Chief Marketing Officer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/larry-brayman?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=acs-partnership-2730732" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Larry Brayman</a> during his keynote address. “In 2026, we are taking that commitment to a new level with a national partnership that I am incredibly proud to introduce. We are joining forces with the American Cancer Society — one of the most respected organizations in the world.”The partnership officially kicked off at the brand’s annual franchise conference, where franchisees, staff, and corporate leaders came together to launch the Battle Rope Challenge — a signature fundraising event designed to unite clubs and members under a shared mission. For 30 seconds, participants take on the ropes and dedicate their effort “in honor of” someone affected by cancer. Each challenge includes a donation to the American Cancer Society and a personal tribute displayed on the “Battle Wall” at each club.Throughout 2026, Workout Anytime clubs will host Battle Rope events and other community activities across the country, inviting both members and non-members to participate. National marketing campaigns, in-gym events, and social media engagement under the hashtag #FightTheBattle will support the initiative.With over 1.3 million volunteers nationwide, the American Cancer Society leads the charge in improving the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research and patient support. The organization currently invests more than $500 million in active research grants, funds more than 870,000 free rides to treatment and provides 545,000 free nights of lodging for patients and caregivers each year. More than 80% of every dollar raised goes directly to ACS programs and research."We’re thrilled to team up with Workout Anytime. They get that health isn't just about the gym," a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/juancuetohsnega/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=acs-partnership-2730732" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Juan Cueto</a>, VP, Georgia from the American Cancer Society said. "By getting their whole community involved — members, staff and franchisees — Workout Anytime is helping us big time. They’re moving us closer to our goal: making sure everyone has a shot at preventing, detecting, treating, and surviving cancer."The partnership also aligns with American Cancer Society guidelines for physical activity and healthy living, encouraging adults to engage in 150 to 300 minutes of moderate-intensity activity per week and adopt balanced, nutrient-rich diets to reduce cancer risk.&nbsp;“Our members don’t just join a gym — they join a movement,” Brayman said. “And when we deliver on our promise, they don’t just stay, they bring others with them. That’s the power of Workout Anytime.”About Workout AnytimeAtlanta-based Workout Anytime is a premium, 24/7 fitness concept with over 190 locations across the U.S. Founded to provide members with state-of-the-art fitness facilities and an exceptional experience at an accessible price point, the brand delivers a strong, profitable business model for franchisees.

Workout Anytime Celebrates 25 Year Anniversary, Builds Momentum with Strategic Expansions and New Innovations

ATLANTA —&nbsp;<a href="https://workoutanytimefranchise.com/">Workout Anytime</a>, the premium 24/7 fitness franchise with more than 190 locations nationwide, has appointed the viral Savannah baseball star and influencer Kyle “KJ” Jackson as its first Chief Aura Officer, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to intentionally leading culture, connection, and community across its clubs.KJ, known for his high-energy presence and ability to connect with fans across generations, will serve as a culture-focused ambassador for&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/workoutanytime/info">Workout Anytime</a>. The role is designed to extend beyond social media into the member experience, from digital welcomes and club-level storytelling, to new ways for members to share their own stories.“Workout Anytime has always been more than a place just to work out,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/lynsay-flynt-5b6b54b3/">Lynsay Flynt</a>, Director of Marketing at Workout Anytime. “Over the past year, especially through The After campaign, we realized we weren’t just talking about fitness results. What truly makes the journey transformative isn’t access or equipment alone, it’s how people feel when they walk through our doors. It’s the energy, the consistency, and the human connection that reminds them they belong.”Flynt said the Chief Aura Officer role is meant to steward and lead the brand’s culture with intention as the franchise system continues to grow.“When we talk about aura, it’s not about hype or volume, it’s about presence,” Flynt said. “From the first time I met KJ, he showed a rare ability to walk into a room and make people feel seen, welcomed, and inspired. His personal journey, overcoming injuries and obstacles that could have derailed his path, instead became a launching pad for his growth and success. Like so many people, KJ faced real hurdles, and it’s that authenticity, that lived experience, that makes his aura such a natural fit for the culture and message that Workout Anytime is championing.”The partnership between Workout Anytime and KJ gained national attention through “The After” campaign in 2025, which proved to be a defining moment for the brand, demonstrating what’s possible when an athlete becomes embedded in a brand’s culture and story, rather than simply representing it. This moment became a natural bridge for KJ to step in as Chief Aura Officer.“Aura isn’t something you claim, it’s something people feel,” said KJ. “For me, it comes from being real, relatable, and grounded. I never want to feel above anyone. I want people to know that if it’s possible for me, it’s possible for them too.”For KJ, partnering with Workout Anytime as Chief Aura Officer is deeply personal, and a passion for him to continue to use his platform and influence for good.“I’ve faced injuries, setbacks, and moments where everything felt uncertain, but I learned that small wins, the right people, and the right environment can change everything,” KJ said. “Workout Anytime creates that environment, a place where people belong, feel supported, and are empowered to become their best selves, one step at a time.”By introducing the Chief Aura Officer role, Workout Anytime is taking an industry-first approach, placing culture, energy and authenticity at the center of leadership, not as a campaign or tagline, but as a lived experience across every club and community it serves.“This partnership with KJ feels like a natural next step for our brand,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerry-pugh-31296b41/">Jerry Pugh</a>, CEO of Workout Anytime. “He doesn’t just understand our culture, he lives it, and we’re excited to grow together.”For more information or to find a location near you, visit&nbsp;<a href="http://workoutanytime.com">workoutanytime.com</a>.ABOUT WORKOUT ANYTIME:Atlanta-based Workout Anytime is a premium, 24/7 fitness concept with over 190 locations across the U.S. Founded to provide members with state-of-the-art fitness facilities and an exceptional experience at an accessible price point, the brand delivers a strong, profitable business model for franchisees.
