### Planet Fitness Expands to Holbrook: A New Destination for Fitness Enthusiasts
The fitness landscape on Long Island is getting a significant boost with the recent opening of a new Planet Fitness location at The Shops at SunVet in Holbrook. This marks the gym’s 30th location in the area, and it is already making strides in fostering a health-conscious community.
#### Modern Features to Elevate Your Workout
Spanning an impressive 19,000 square feet, the new facility offers a comprehensive array of cardio and strength training equipment, as well as functional training areas. For those focused on recovery, there are hot and cold therapy beds available, along with tanning and spa services. General manager Victoria Gigliotti reports that the gym has already attracted over 3,000 members, positioning itself as a key fitness hub for residents in Brookhaven, Islip towns, and beyond—thanks to its prime location on Sunrise Highway.
“The visibility due to the heavy traffic on Sunrise Highway will allow us to broaden our clientele,” Gigliotti shared in a recent interview. This strategic location not only enhances accessibility for locals but also entices visitors from surrounding areas.
#### A Revitalized Shopping Experience
The Holbrook Planet Fitness is part of a revitalization effort for the property, formerly known as Sun Vet Mall, which had struggled with high vacancy rates before its demolition in 2023. The newly reimagined open-air shopping center now encompasses 169,628 square feet and hosts a variety of upscale retailers, including a 43,000-square-foot Whole Foods Market, Starbucks, Nordstrom Rack, and more.
#### Join the Fitness Movement
Planet Fitness is not just stopping at Holbrook; the company is rapidly expanding its reach both domestically and internationally. With 181 gyms opened last year, including 104 during the final quarter, the brand currently operates nearly 2,900 locations. CEO Colleen Keating recently announced plans to open an additional 180 to 190 gyms this year alone.
Regionally, Planet Fitness has seen substantial growth over the past seven years—growing from just 17 local gyms to now 30. The company’s financial success is evident, as it reported revenues of $1.2 billion and a profit of $219 million for the year ending December 31, 2025.
