The health club industry is one of the very few areas of growth in today’s economy. Over 30 million Americans belong to a fitness center, and with the emphasis of preventive medicine at the forefront of health care the trend of growth should continue into the foreseeable future.

Even though we see continued growth in the fitness industry many centers are struggling due to member attrition and increased costs. This may seem a contradiction; however, even though individuals continue to exercise they have become extremely price conscious due to their own increases in personal living expenses.

With over 100 years of combined fitness industry experience the owners and operators of IHCA understand the everyday struggles fitness center owners face. We understand every aspect of fitness center development and operation. We are not a (hands off) association – we have been and continue to be on the front line of health club management and operations.

IHCA was developed to assist health clubs in generating revenue. We do not put emphasis on conventions or equipment manufacturers; we assist the individual health club owner in the everyday operation of their center. Whether you have an 800sq ft or an 80,000sq foot facility we are there to assist you.
