Worcester Fitness Named Worcester’s Best Health Club to Start 2026
We’re kicking off 2026 with something worth celebrating.
Worcester Fitness has been named Worcester’s Best Health Club by readers of Worcester Business Journal, and this recognition belongs to far more than just our name on the door.
The Worcester Business Journal has been covering Central Massachusetts businesses and leadership for decades, and its annual reader-voted awards spotlight organizations that truly make an impact in the community. Being chosen by readers makes this honor especially meaningful.
When we say we won, we mean all of us, our members, our team, our families, our friends, and our corporate partners. Worcester Fitness has always been built around community, connection, and showing up for one another.
As General Manager, Kat Pittinger puts it:
“We owe every moment of our successes over the past 40-plus years to our amazing team and the thousands of people who have walked through our doors over that time. They are the ones that make Worcester Fitness the special place that it is.”
For more than four decades, Worcester Fitness has grown alongside the people who make this place what it is. This award is a reflection of everyone who has trained, lifted, laughed, and built healthy habits here over the years.
From the entire Worcester Fitness family — thank you for helping us start 2026 on such a strong note!
