Birmingham Welcomes New Onelife Fitness Location!
Hey there, Birmingham! Exciting news is on the horizon as Onelife Fitness, the Virginia-based gym chain, is set to expand its footprint into our fair city. That’s right, fitness enthusiasts—soon you’ll have a new place to break a sweat!
What’s the Buzz?
According to recent reports, Onelife Fitness is planning to take over a space that was formerly a JCPenney store in the Birmingham area. While the exact location remains a bit of a mystery and has not yet been revealed, excitement is brewing among locals. As we all know, change can be exhilarating, especially when it means better options for fitness.
Big Changes Under New Ownership
Let’s talk a bit about what’s fueling this expansion. Back in October, a savvy investment company called 26North Partners, led by none other than the owner of the Washington Commanders, snatched up Onelife Fitness. With new ownership often comes new visions, and in this case, they’re aiming high! Onelife Fitness plans to launch an impressive 61 new locations to cater to over 430,000 members across the nation. That’s a whole lot of fitness!

Members enjoy top-notch personal training services, swimming pools, and of course, tons of different fitness classes to keep you engaged. Whether you’re into yoga, HIIT, or traditional weight lifting, there’s likely a class that fits your preference. Not to mention, the facilities often boast relaxation areas where you can unwind after your workout. Sounds fantastic, doesn’t it?
The Local Scene
Now, let’s take a moment to consider the larger picture. Birmingham currently has just four remaining JCPenney stores, and it’s interesting to see how retail spaces are transitioning into fitness facilities. The fitness industry has grown by leaps and bounds, especially as more people are prioritizing their health and wellness.
With this new incoming Onelife Fitness location, locals will have even more accessibility to a variety of fitness options. And we know how important it is to have convenient places to exercise right in your neighborhood!
