KEY POINTS

Life Time and Planet Fitness both reported strong growth, but their results highlighted a widening divide in consumer spending habits.

Life Time’s revenue jumped 12% as higher-income members paid higher dues and spent more on premium services like training, spa treatments and food.

Planet Fitness saw strong growth, but its weaker 2026 outlook raised concerns about slowing demand among lower- and middle-income members.

They have different types of gyms. Apparently the more standard ones are $99 now and the larger luxury ones are over $300. The one I checked out has a heated outdoor olympic size swimming pool year round (lovely waste of resources!)
