Core Health & Fitness
Commercial fitness equipment across StairMaster, Star Trac, Nautilus, and Schwinn.
Regions: US, International
Core Health & Fitness is a commercial equipment manufacturer that owns several category-leading brands — StairMaster, Star Trac, Nautilus, Schwinn indoor cycling, and Throwdown — spanning cardio, strength, and functional training. For a franchisor, buying across one parent company can simplify a mixed-equipment floor (steppers, bikes, strength, functional) under fewer service relationships. Evaluate which specific brands you need per zone and confirm consolidated service and parts support across the lines you choose.
