About This Project

Summary

Fitness for underserved communities is intimidating, inaccessible, and unaffordable. Many deprioritize their well-being due to a lack of motivation, support, and guidance. They need affordable, flexible, and frictionless experiences tailored to their journeys. Planet Fitness aimed to meet everyone’s needs, especially during COVID lockdowns that isolated millions from gyms. The goal was to create a digital experience to support fitness and ensure individuals everywhere could live healthier lives.

Goals & Objectives

Judgement Free Fitness: Remove intimidation and welcome all members, regardless of age, body type, fitness level, or cost. Easy Access for All: Provide free workout content and affordable sign-up options Anywhere Engagement: Connect people to digital and physical worlds, ensuring seamless engagement

Results & Impact

Planet Fitness ranked #1 health and fitness app in the App Store, with a 20% rise to a 4.8/5. The app saw a 2.3M increase in users and an 83% YOY uplift in workout sessions from 2022 to 2023, reaching 8.3M active users. Membership grew to 18M across 2,500+ locations, up 1.7M from the prior year.
