‘Fit4Poor’ opened its 1st club back in January of 2018 and has now over 60 clubs across the uk.
Because of its alluring low price and life term memberships, it’s impossible to leave!
Fit4Poor founder and CEO Barry Frampton commented:
“Honestly I could not believe what the general public will put up with when stuff is cheap!
One of our clubs in Skegness only has 1 working toilet, no matching dumbbells and you have to queue to use most of the equipment, but they love it because it’s cheap!”
Mr Frampton took inspiration from the influx of 99p shops in his local area and decided to bring the concept into the fitness industry.
And that’s not the only idea the budding entrepreneur took inspiration from the high street.
“We get around the expensive music license law by allowing buskers to freely play in the gym area as well as allow the local homeless community have 24 hour access to our bins, 9 times out of 10 they just take the lot, brilliant”
Here are just some of the chains 5 star google reviews:
“Tbh I’ve only been 7 times in the past 18 months but who cares, its cheap”

“Yeah its located next to the sewer refinery, yes there is no heating or working wash facilities, yes you have to queue for most things and yes there are tramps living in the changing room, but it 99p a month!!! Its brilliant”

The franchise averages around 60,000 members per facility which although has its health and safety issues, means the gym group will be on target to quadruple the shareholders price by next quarter.
Owner mr Frampton is hoping to open a further 20 facilities next month alone and Hope’s to hit Europe by 2021.
