Exciting and innovative, Bay Athletic Club opened in January 2006 as the premier medically-based health and fitness facility in Northeast Michigan.  Located in the new HealthPlex at Alpena Regional Medical Center and overlooking the scenic Thunder Bay River, we are open to anyone wanting to improve their overall health and wellness. We support healthy lifestyles by offering a comprehensive group exercise program, a private women’s express circuit room, a state-of-the-art cardiovascular theater, Olympic-quality strength training room and signature fitness events year round.

Bay Athletic Club boasts a wide range of fitness equipment and interactive programming to meet the specific needs and ability level of each member.  Degreed fitness specialists are always on-hand to assist and instruct you in individualized workout programs.

As part of our efforts to pamper and finesse both members and nonmembers alike, specialty services round out our offerings, including:  personal training, nutritional services, and massage therapy.  Additional amenities include the JungleGym daycare and the Sunprint Café.

Bay Athletic Club was honored by Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm and the Small Business Administration in our first year of operation as one of the top ten small businesses in the state for our innovative business design and our impact wellness in a small community.

In January 2007 we added 2,500 square feet to our 7,000 square foot facility to better accommodate the needs of our members.

Enhancements include a large group exercise studio with top-quality surround sound and custom flooring, locker room expansion, and even more space for cutting-edge strength and cardio equipment.

At Bay Athletic Club, we believe that fitness is for everyone! There are many ways to meet new people and try new experiences -- from yoga retreats and outdoor adventure clubs to strongman competitions and walking clubs. We offer a beautiful and modern facility, top-quality equipment and customer service, and comprehensive wellness offerings to benefit the mind and body.
