The 24 Hour Fitness gym chain has announced it won’t reopen 18 Southern California locations despite the state’s loosening of limitations on workout facilities.
The chain’s webpage says: “24 Hour Fitness has made the difficult decision to close the following locations. Members, we invite you to work out at any reopened location throughout 2020.”
California’s Stage 3 reopening plan, in effect as of Friday, June 12, allows gyms, bars, communal swimming pools, movie theaters and hotels and museums to reopen as long as guidelines for social distancing and sanitation are followed,
The closed gyms, as listed on the chains’ website:

The company has been struggling even before the pandemic, losing customers to gyms that were cheaper or fancier.
Bloomberg News reported in May that the chain’s parent company, 24 Hour Fitness Worldwide Inc., was in talks with investors over the terms of a loan that would keep the company operating through a bankruptcy court restructuring. Even before the pandemic, the operator of more than 400 gyms before the closings, had $1.3 billion of debt stemming from a leveraged buyout by AEA Investors and the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan in 2014.
