This is especially the case as schools break for the summer, and 24 Hour Fitness is here to spot you.
On May 15, the national gym chain is starting sign ups for its summer program opened exclusively to teenagers from 14 to 18.
The initiative offers that age group full access to all participating gyms and a huge discount, per KTLA.
Any 14 to 18 year old can sign up, with the sole condition that their parent or guardian is a current member of 24 Hour Fitness.
Raphael Konforti, senior director of fitness business and operations said: “Summer is a time when many teens lose access to physical activity and social engagement.
“According to the World Health Organization, 81% of teens worldwide aren’t meeting basic activity guidelines.
“By making our clubs accessible to high school students this summer, we’re offering a space where they can feel strong, supported, and inspired every day.”
The membership includes access to cardio and strength equipment, free weights, group fitness classes and recovery programs.
You also get the company’s 24GO app, which provides thousands of guided workouts.
Sign-ups can be completed online or in person, and the program runs from June 1 through August 3.
Konforti added: “We’re not just offering a membership.
“We’re offering a space where teens can feel strong, supported, and inspired.”

LAZY DAY
The US Sun recently reported on a study conducted to see how many days Americans spend doing nothing in the name of self-care.
It took 2,000 Americans into account as National Lazy Day approaches on August 10.
The study found that the average number of days people need to do nothing is around 60 days, or almost two whole months.
Mei Higgins, vice president of merchandising of Berkshire Blanket & Home Co. said: “In honor of National Lazy Day, we wanted to see how Americans rest and rejuvenate during a much needed-lazy day.
How the holidays affect your health
A survey of 2,000 people revealed how their healthy habits change during the holiday season.
New data by Talker Research on behalf of Herbalife shows that 24% of Americans are still carrying pounds from the end of 2023.
On average, this is about 10 pounds.
Half of Americans surveyed said they’re less healthy than usual at the end of the year – and 43% said they postpone eating healthily at the end of the year.
The survey showed that 53% of people have broken a diet at the end of the year, while 36% admitted it was because they were tempted by holiday food like Thanksgiving leftovers.
62% of respondents said they enjoy the holiday season more if they’re not worried about healthy habits and their weight.
Overall, 37% of respondents said they’re more likely to give in to temptation this year versus other years, and it was even more true for younger generations as 52% of Gen Z said so, versus only 38% of Gen X.
They were also more likely to give into temptation this year: overall, 37% of respondents were more likely to give in this year than other years, and this increased for younger generations — 52% of Gen Z, versus only 38% of Gen X.
Despite falling out of healthy eating habits at the end of the year, 65% of surveyed Americans plan to start the new years with healthier behavior.
“Everyone deserves a rest day here and there, maybe even a bit more often, and days like these are so important when it comes to wellness.
“The study even found that almost three in four people (74%) said lazy days are crucial when it comes to self-care.”
One in five of the survey takers said they plan their lazy days in advance, and 67% opted to take their lazy days spontaneously.
And a typical lazy day looks quite common, it turns out.
On one of these occasions, the average person spends two hours lying in bed, an hour eating, three hours binge-watching movies and TV, an hour reading, and two hours scrolling.
