(MINNEAPOLIS, MN, August 12, 2021) – The Fitness Business Association (FBA) - formerly the Association of Fitness Studios – announced today that FBA has joined the National Health & Fitness Alliance (NHFA) to actively participate in, and promote the passage of, the GYMS Act in Congress.

The NHFA is working with individuals, business owners, and community partners in all 50 states and Washington, D.C., to help pass the GYMS Act (H.R. 890/S.1613). The bipartisan bill will provide federal grants of up to 45% of 2019 revenue to fitness facilities across the country struggling to recover from state-ordered closures and operating restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

A new global customer survey by Virtuagym of gyms, fitness studios and personal trainers has revealed the crucial role that fitness technology has played for fitness businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the key part it is predicted to have for the future of the industry.

The research, undertaken whilst much of the fitness industry was still closed, found that digital technology was vital in motivating and engaging members, during a period in which over two-thirds (69%) had to close their doors for at least three months.
