Abstract

Fitness salonları, özellikle gelişmiş ülkelerde üyelerine kontrollü bir ortamda sundukları değişik alternatif metodlarla egzersiz yapmanın yanısıra üyelere sosyalleşme imkanları da sağlamaktadır. Her nekadar sağladıkları hizmetler ve aldıkları ücretler farklılıklar gösterse de bu tür merkezler genelde aynı prensiplerle çalışırlar: ne kadar uzun süreli sağlanırsa her iki taraf için de -gerek kulüp, gerekse üyelerin- menfaatine olan üyelik sistemi. Bu çalışma öncelikle konu hakkında teorik bilgi ve geri plan bilgisi oluşturacak çalışmanın katılımcıları hakkında özet bilgiler vererek Türkiye'deki fitness sektörünü genel olarak incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Daha sonra katılımcıların fitness çalışmalarına kendilerini kişisel olarak nasıl bağladıklarını ortaya koyacaktır. Son olarak, araştırma sonuçlarına dayanan özet ve öneriler kısmı çalışmada yer alacaktır
