Fit Republic is a chain of workout centers, aka gyms, with locations in most states throughout the U.S. They offer a variety of workout options like weights and cardio machines, group training classes, and certified personal trainers. What makes Fit Republic stand out is there focus on Functional Intense Interval Training (FIIT), which is based on fast-paced, intense workouts that burn up to 1,000 per session.
According to the company’s website, their goal is to “provide a positive and fun workout environment for our members.” While this is a great philosophy, putting it into practice requires a safe, well-maintained property that’s free of dangerous conditions. Lack of cleaning, maintenance, and security at a Fit Republic location can result in all sorts of accidents, including:
- Slip and fall and trip and fall incidents
- Injuries caused by broken machine / defective workout equipment
- Bathroom injuries (from broken toilets, leaking pipes, dirty floors and other hazards)
- Pool and hot tub injuries
- Assault and battery
- Sexual assault
- Parking lot accidents – injuries to pedestrians, car crashes, etc.
As an accident victim, you may have grounds to sue Fit Republic if they failed to take reasonable measures that could have prevented you from being injured. To learn more about your rights and legal options, contact the gym accident injury lawyers of Normandie Law Firm.

Your Right to Sue Fit Republic
Getting injured is something that happens to most people who work out regularly, and this is important to note when you hurt yourself at a fitness center. Not all accidents will qualify you for a lawsuit, as some of these are incidents where you played a direct role in causing the injury. However, there’s no denying that lack of maintenance and adequate security at a gym are directly responsible for incidents like slip and falls, assault and battery, and defective gym equipment accidents.
These accidents may be traced to negligence by the business owner or one of their employees. For example, a personal trainer may push a client too hard or fail to take necessary precautions when using certain equipment. As a result, the client ends up being injured, which gives them the right to sue the fitness center under the legal principle of vicarious liability. Security failures, including overly aggressive security guards that use excessive force, can also be grounds for a lawsuit against the business owner.
At the end of the day, there are many ways that a business can fail in their duty of care to the people they serve. Injuries can also happen to visitors on the premises, like mail carriers, delivery drivers, and repair technicians. Our attorneys are here to answer your questions and fight for the compensation you deserve, so please give us a call if you were injured from an accident at Fit Republic.
Case Value of a Fit Republic Accident Claim
How much you will end up with from a fitness center accident case can vary from just a few thousand dollars to several million dollars. The actual amount depends on how badly you are injured, how your injuries impact your life, your level of emotional distress, and many other factors. Most of the claims we handle result in settlements of $75,000 to $2,000,000 and above if there are moderate to severe injuries. However, some clients may receive additional funds, like punitive damages from a jury verdict if the incident was caused by excessive neglect or misconduct (gross negligence).
Each case is unique in terms of the compensation that is owed to the victim. To get an accurate assessment of your case value for being injured at Fit Republic, please schedule a free case evaluation.
What is the Deadline to Sue Fit Republic for an Accident?
Most compensation claims based on negligence have a filing deadline of 2 years. So, this is how long you have to file a lawsuit for an accident at Fit Republic, starting from when the injury occurred. One exception applies to lawsuit for sexual assault, which have a 10-year statute of limitations for adult victims.
No matter how long you have for a gym injury accident claim, quick action is the key to building a strong case and receiving compensation in a timely manner. Please take a moment to contact our office and start the process of filing a lawsuit with one of our attorneys.
How Long will It Take to Settle my Case?
If your case is settled during the claims process, it’s possible that you may receive payment within the first few months. However, it’s unlikely that cases involving serious injuries will settle within this timeframe. The majority of claims proceed to a lawsuit due to continued resistance by the insurance company, and as a result, reaching a settlement can take between 8 to 24 months. If taking your case to trial is the best option, it may be over 3 years before you are compensated from a lawsuit against Fit Republic. But trials are extremely rare, and in our experience, we would say that around 95% of all personal injury claims are settled out of court.
