24 Hour Fitness has wrapped a multi-million-dollar remodel project covering five Bay Area locations: East Side San Jose Super-Sport, Eastridge Super-Sport, Hayward Super-Sport, Milpitas Super-Sport, and Petaluma Sport. All five completed their renovations and reopened this summer. Grand reopening events took place at each location throughout the season, featuring giveaways, local vendor activations, and limited membership offers for the surrounding communities.
24 Hour Fitness is one of the largest fitness chains in the United States, operating clubs across multiple states with a focus on accessible, full-service gym experiences. The chain offers a range of membership tiers and club formats — Sport, Super-Sport, and Ultra-Sport — with each tier unlocking progressively more amenities. The Bay Area has been a core market for the brand since its founding in California decades ago.
Every remodeled location received a redesigned floor plan, expanded strength and functional training areas, refreshed cardio equipment, and improved club flow. Expanded turf space was added at Eastridge, while Hayward received a relocated front desk and dedicated stretching zones. East Side San Jose, Milpitas, and Petaluma all added Recovery24 — a branded section of the club dedicated to recovery work, including mobility tools and wellness-focused amenities. The goal across all five was a more open, functional layout that supports how members actually train today.
The Bay Area represents one of 24 Hour Fitness' densest club footprints in the country, and the region carries outsized significance for the brand's history and revenue. Investing in existing locations here signals confidence in the market rather than a retreat from it. The remodels also come as the Bay Area fitness market continues to see competition from boutique studios, newer franchise concepts, and tech-forward gym concepts, making facility quality a stronger differentiator than it was a decade ago.
24 Hour Fitness ran exclusive membership offers tied to the grand reopening events at each location this summer. Specific pricing and current offers were not detailed in the announcement. Prospective members are encouraged to visit the individual clubs or the 24 Hour Fitness website for current membership rates and any ongoing promotions.
The Bay Area project is one piece of 24 Hour Fitness' broader, ongoing nationwide club modernization initiative. The company has been systematically upgrading locations across the country with the same priorities: redesigned layouts, premium equipment, and the Recovery24 concept. The initiative reflects a post-pandemic strategy of deepening investment in existing locations rather than aggressive new-location expansion. No specific count of total clubs upgraded nationally was provided in this announcement.
Barnaby Smith, 24 Hour Fitness' regional vice president, described the Bay Area as a long-standing priority for the brand and said the remodels were a direct investment in the neighborhoods where these clubs operate. He framed the upgrades as a response to how members' training needs have evolved, noting that the goal is to build spaces that motivate people to come back every day. Smith emphasized that the work reflects the company's commitment to high-quality fitness experiences rather than just cosmetic changes.
Members at all five locations get meaningfully more usable space — particularly in the strength and functional training zones, which tend to be the most congested areas in high-traffic clubs. The addition of Recovery24 at three locations gives members access to structured recovery infrastructure that most standard gyms don't provide, without requiring a separate membership or visit to a specialty studio. For anyone already training at East Side San Jose, Eastridge, Hayward, Milpitas, or Petaluma, the changes are already in place and worth seeing in person.
All five remodeled clubs are open now. Visit 24hourfitness.com to find club hours, current membership rates, and any active promotions at each location. If you're new to one of these clubs, the grand reopening events have concluded, but the updated facilities and equipment are available to all members and prospective members during normal operating hours.
