Anytime Fitness Opens In Terre Haute, Indiana

IFBB Pro Bodybuilder Isabelle Turell

We couldn't do without our 24-hour gym in Chicago (XSport Fitness), and now Terre Haute can experience the convenience with the opening of Anytime Fitness. One of the top female bodybuilders in the world, Isabelle Turell, already calls the new gym home.

For professional bodybuilder Isabelle Turell getting into the gym is a necessity.

"Right now I'm getting ready for a show, the Ms. International, the Arnold Classic," Turell said. "That's eight weeks away so with my training, diet and cardio this is very convenient for me."

Not only is the Valley's newest gym right around the corner from her house, but it's also open 24 hours.

Anytime Fitness opened their doors at the corner of Fruitridge and Wabash Avenue in Terre Haute in mid-December and is setting itself apart from other gyms in the area.

"There wasn't a whole lot of competition as far as 24/7," said manager Heather Atterson. "A lot of people's schedules, you know they wanted to be into fitness or they are into fitness but couldn't be because of their work schedule and how crazy they are."

What's unique about Anytime Fitness is you can get into the gym 24 hours a day thanks to a key fob.

All you have to do is scan in and the gym is open to you, even if it's 2 o'clock in the morning.

"I have come in here after work by myself actually it was 2 in the morning when I got here after bartending all night and then I'm still full energy," said member Breanna Moore. "So I can come in here and workout and it's awesome and I wouldn't be able to get it done during the day."

And with membership growing the club is expanding to a South location.

"We are going to open a second location, a south location," Atterson said. "We are not exactly sure of that location at this time, but we will open another anytime fitness down south."

And that means more opportunities for people like Isabelle to hit the gym anytime.

Anytime Fitness is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

 The club is staffed 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday. And 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays.
