History
The crunch was founded in 1989 as a gym by Doug Levine, a former stockbroker. The clubs have successfully attracted high-profile young members and sold logo merchandise.
Possession
Bally Total Fitness learnt Crunch in 2001 for $90 million in cash and stock. And they owned the brand for four years. In 2005, Angelo, Gordon & Co. And a private equity firm, purchased Crunch from Ballys for $45 million. And in 2009, added New Development Fitness Company (“NEFC”/New Evolution Ventures). Also, the company was founded by Mark Mastrov (founder of 24 Hour Fitness) and fitness veteran Jim Rowley as equity and operating partner.
Also, on July 1, 2019, it was announced that private equity firm TPG would acquire Crunch Fitness through its growth capital unit.
Global CEO Jim Rowley leads the crunch. Keith Worts is CEO of company-owned and operated clubs, including the Crunch Signature brand, and Ben Midgley is CEO of Crunch Franchise.
Group Fitness Classes
The clubs offer a variety of group fitness classes, including stationary bike workouts, Pilates, yoga, and Zumba. Initially, Crunch Fitness offered unusual classes like bike yoga, mixed wrestling, a drag queen-led “abs, thighs, and gossip” class, and (uncommon in 1997) pole dancing and capoeira. Although types were later standardized in various places, some popular offbeat categories remain, such as Karaoke Bike, Pound, and Antigravity Yoga.
