Greetings!
Last week, GymLink Australia were proud to be announced as the Major Sponsor for the 2010 Australian Health & Fitness Expo at the Sydney Exhibition Centre, Darling Harbour. For the second consecutive year, GymLink have taken the position as the major sponsor in what looks likely to be a huge year. Exhibition Manager, Ashley Robertson, said "The synergies between the
expo and GymLink Australia would assist the expo in reaching a targeted group of
fitness professionals and potential visitors. Both GymLink and the Australian Fitness & Health Expo seek to connect people with the products and services of the fitness and health industry. GymLink is the country's leading online health and fitness portal - its sponsorship of the expo provides a new channel of communication through which we can reach more people, drive visitor attendance and increase exhibitor satisfaction."

FITNESS BUSINESS FEATURE ARTICLE
Anytime Fitness Australia Sets New Growth Record. (press release)
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - Anytime Fitness has earned the title of "fastest growing fitness club in the world, "according to the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association (IHRSA). But nowhere else on Earth is the world's #1 co-ed fitness club franchise expanding more rapidly than in Australia and New Zealand.
"The majority of the credit belongs to our Australian master franchisees Justin McDonell and Jacinta McDonell Jimenez," says Anytime spokesman Mark Daly. "they have taken our U.S. business model and enhanced it to meet the needs of Australian entrepreneurs and fitness club members. We're very pleased, but not surprised, by their tremendous success."
In less than 18 months, the bother-sister team has opened 23 new gyms and sold more than 60 franchise territories. By contrast, it's taken Anytime Fitness nearly seven years to open that many gyms and sell that many territories in Canada....
