The Struggles of Blink Fitness
Blink Fitness has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection as it struggles to recover financially after the impacts of COVID-19. With over 100 locations across the U.S., the chain aimed to provide affordable fitness options with membership fees ranging from $15 to $45 a month. Despite a 40% increase in revenue over the past two years, rising costs exceeded sales, pushing the company to seek restructuring while trying to find a buyer. The broader industry may benefit from a high demand for budget gyms, but Blink's specific circumstances have left them caught in a challenging financial position.
