Built for St. Louis personal trainers
St. Louis is a big-club metro: 402 employer fitness centers, 14.3 per 100,000 residents and 83rd of 387, with 116 at twenty or more staff and 19 at a hundred to 249. St. Louis County had 177, St. Charles County 65 and St. Louis city 47. Trainers here compete with well-staffed clubs, so the independent's edge is flexibility: sessions at a park, a client's home or a rented studio, chosen when the client books, with no-show protection keeping early mornings from going to waste.
St. Louis County has 17.9 fitness centers per 100,000 residents and St. Charles County 15.6.

Within the mixed personal services class, St. Louis County had 105, St. Louis city 28 and St. Charles County 22. 163 of its 212 had fewer than five employees.
