The gym, though, promised it was "here for the long run" and staying on track to reopen fitness clubs with uninterrupted service to members, as well as introducing new ones.
"This process gives us the opportunity to reposition 24 Hour Fitness by eliminating debt and closing clubs that were either out-of-date or in close proximity with other 24 Hour Fitness clubs," the company said on its website.
