Founder and President of Fitness Machine Technicians, Don Powers, has over thirty years of experience with exercise equipment sales and service. He founded Corfit, an exercise equipment sales and service company, in 1989. His success attracted Omni Fitness, who purchased Corfit in 1997. He then became Vice President for Omni Fitness’ Mid-Atlantic region. In 2002 Don realized that there was a large void in the market for professional fitness equipment service and repair. He acquired Exertech, which was renamed Fitness Machine Technicians in 2014. Fitness Machine Technicians sold its first franchise in 2012 before rolling out a national franchise campaign in 2018. The brand now has a total of 45 franchisees, with over 100 territories in operation, and is open in 31 states. In addition to continuing its growth across the United States, Fitness Machine Technicians will expand into Canada this year.

Our Industries
Employees who exercise are less stressed and more productive at work. Having pieces of equipment down can eat into your profits. It’s critical to keep your busy gym well maintained so your employees are happy and healthy.
You make your living selling memberships to your health club. We understand that having a piece of equipment down causes the gym owner/manager a bunch of headaches. We have worked with the largest clubs to keep their problems to a minimum.
Schools are competing for students every day, and many students take their exercising seriously. While taking a tour, the last thing you want a prospective student to notice is a room full of “Out of Order” signs. We also take our work seriously to keep those “Out of Order” signs out of your school.
You bought a piece of equipment so you can workout at home. You get into a routine. Out of the blue, the equipment breaks and you cannot exercise anymore and your routine is broken. This does not make you happy at all. We understand your frustration and will do everything in our power to quickly get it up and running again.
