Leverage Fitness Social Network FitFiend.com
Use the Fitness Social Network FitFiend.com, which already has many Crunch members and instructors on the site. It would be a great way to promote Crunch to non-members, whether by having your trainers/instructors featured, new gym openings and events covered, or tapping the wealth of fitness professionals for job openings.
Crunch and FitFiend are discussing the possibility of working together. We plan to continue our conversation to ensure a potential partnership is best for both parties. Thanks for the recommendation and virtual introduction!

Instructor Subs planned
Create an interest e-mail to notify students if a regular instructor is out and who is subbing for them
We are all big fans of targeted emails, and sms text messages regarding a number of different club related topics. We plan to offer RSS feeds too. What other topics would you like to receive updates on?

create a mobile site started
I jump from gym to gym and take all your classes. A mobile site would allow me to get information when I need it.
We love this suggestion and see how it could add value to our member experience. We are discussing which features should be accessible on a mobile friendly site to add the most "on the go" value. We are open to suggestions regarding mobile features and functions. Just select the comment link below.

Start a feature that tells me if the gym is busy planned
I can go to the gym at anytime because I don’t have job. I would like to know if the gym is super busy before showing up. Maybe you can add a rank or something. This would work wonders for your Union Square location.
This feature is a brilliant suggestion that can be executed quickly and is uncomplicated to manage. We haven’t decided if we should implement this idea on our existing website or included this element in the redevelopment scheduled for later in the year. We may be able to set up member notifications when a certain location is over or under a desired occupancy level. Another option is to creatively display the “traffic” rating on our clubs pages and on a mobile friendly site. Which you would prefer?

Include a feature so I can pay my bill online planned
Just incase I miss a payment and receive the email from the billing department. It's happened a few times... Online payment and statement reminders would help me stay on schedule.

allow members to suspend their membership if necessary planned
I travel a lot for work, and would like to be able to suspend the membership, or what would be really nice would be to have membership credits that are used up each time you go, instead of a flat monthly rate.
We plan on allowing members to freeze their membership online as a feature and function of our new website. This is one of many new features that will be incorporated into the site based on a member’s suggestion. Until this modification is live, members are able to freeze their accounts by submitting a request within the gym or by calling our member services department at 888.2.CRUNCH

include a feature so I can sign in for classes online planned
I work late, and many times I miss the classes I'd like to get to because the sign in sheet is available only to people who have the time to get to the gym an hour before the class. An online sign in sheet would allow hard working people to get to the gym and enjoy classes according to their own schedule.
Thank you for your suggestion. A feature that allows members to sign up for classes online would be helpful to many members.. We are taking this suggestion seriously and plan to explore ways that we can bring this to life on our web stie. Do you think it's fair to have an online sign up for all classes or just some? We'd like to hear back from you again. Thanks for your feedback.!

create a facebook
Create a facebook of who the instructors are and what they teach
Crunch recently created a Facebook Group to unite Facebook Crunch members across the nation, allow group members to participate in our sponsored events, see photos and videos from those events, post to our discussion board and community wall and most importantly, extend the Crunch experience beyond the walls of our clubs and into their favorite online enviroment.

create your own group fitness class schedule
It would be really cool if members could pull group fitness classes from different location schedules and create their own personal schedule to follow. Maybe the personal schedule could also be adapted to mobile phones.

make the locations page more user-friendly planned
It would be better if all locations were listed on the front page rather than requiring that one click through on the metropolitan area
Thank you for the feedback. We agree this method should be less time consuming and more logical. We are working towards a system that will identify the city where you reside and customize the site navigation.

Have a feature that tracks attendance every time you scan in
Sometimes when you're busy it's difficult to keep track of how much you've been working out. It would be nice if every time you scan your key tag it got recorded online in a profile or email alert and you could check and see how you're doing. I know this is similar to other suggestions, but I think less complicated - no workout summaries, just "You've been to the gym X times this month."

Have bios of all of the trainers at each location online
When I first signed up my biggest goal was to get a trainer that was hard on me and didn't let me give up on myself. I signed up with the first trainer that spoke with me because he said he would be hard on me, but we ended up goofing off more than working out some days and $1250 and two months later, I haven't even come close to meeting my goals and definitely won't be wearing a swim suit this year. Total waste of money.

clicking on class/ instructor planned
When you are on the class finder page. If you can click when you're in the schedule on the instructor or the class name so you can find out when they teach or when the class is held again. When you're trying to pick at the top, you can't always choose the instructor because the list is too long to scroll down and pops back up to the top.

Display the club special event calendars on the website
Could the events that are written on calendars at the clubs be put on the web site?
Thanks for the post! Are you referring to the Crunch sponsored event like the Nike Human Race, City Chase New York, and the Surfing trip Crunch is hosting?

Add videos of your classes to the site planned
I travel 20 weeks out of the year. Mostly to LA and Miami where Crunch is located but a few other cities Crunch isn't located. I think you should offer the option to watch or download videos of you yoga classes.
