Hussle: flexible passes for a UK gym network

Hussle is a British platform that sells gym passes and memberships with access to a network of fitness facilities across the UK. Its offering is built around a single pass that lets you work out at different venues with no long-term contract, no joining fee and the option to cancel at any time.

The company operates under the legal name Archway Fitness Ltd, trading as Hussle. Its registered office is at 20-22 Wenlock Road, London, N1 7GU.

How the monthly membership works

The monthly subscription model is organised in three steps. First, the user browses the network of gyms, pools and spas and chooses a main venue. They then get unlimited access to hundreds of facilities at a price equal to or lower than that of their home gym. Finally, they present their pass at the chosen venue and start working out with no ongoing contracts.

The platform also offers the Monthly+ Pass, which gives unlimited access to multiple gyms on the Hussle network, with no sign-up fees, no inductions and one single price. It also sells pay-as-you-go day passes, aimed at those who do not yet want to commit to a membership and which, according to the company, are often cheaper than day passes bought directly from gyms.

Facility network and coverage

Hussle says it has thousands of gyms across the UK, making it possible to find a nearby venue wherever you live or work. The network includes gyms, pools and spas, so users can work out, swim or relax in a spa depending on the type of facility they choose. The company also sells passes with access to online fitness platforms.

The platform has iOS and Android apps, which can be used to find nearby gyms and manage your pass.

Corporate wellness

The company offers businesses flexible, discounted access to its network of fitness facilities as an employee benefit. According to its presentation, this programme aims to improve staff wellbeing, reduce absenteeism and increase productivity. Interested companies can request a free quote, and employees can refer their HR department to access corporate discounts on membership.

Company origins and philosophy

Hussle was founded in 2010 by Jamie and Neil, who at the time were training for a swim to the Isle of Wight. Both were juggling busy jobs and busy lives and concluded that fitness needed to fit around their schedules, not the other way round, which led them to create the platform. The company maintains that variety is key to keeping up the exercise habit and sums up its offering as the freedom to choose what exercise to do, where and when.

Model for gym owners

Gym owners can list their facility on the platform for free and benefit from Hussle's marketing to reach new customers.

Content and resources

The company runs a blog with news and expert insights on fitness and wellbeing, aimed at both its user community and its corporate partners.
