Let’s be honest — running a gym feels like a marathon that never ends. You’re managing members, juggling trainer schedules, fixing last-minute cancellations, and still expected to keep the energy on the floor alive. Then there’s the financial side. Membership fees are trickling in, payroll deadlines are looming, and random equipment bills always seem to arrive at the worst time. It piles up fast, doesn’t it?

That’s where Straight Talk CPAs come in.

We handle the numbers so you can get back to what you actually built this business for — coaching, building your team, and helping people crush their fitness goals.

Accounting Services for Gym Owners

Accounting shouldn’t eat up the hours you’d rather spend running classes or leading your team. Here’s how we take that weight off your shoulders:

Comprehensive Financial Oversight

Not just endless spreadsheets — we break down your revenue streams from memberships, drop-ins, and personal training sessions so you can actually see where your money’s coming from.

Tax Optimization

Equipment purchases, facility upgrades, trainer certifications — we make sure every eligible deduction is claimed, so your bottom line works harder for you.

Profitability Analysis

Which programs are driving real profit? Which ones are draining resources? We’ll give you the data, so you know where to double down.

Tailored Accounting Services for

Gyms

No two gyms run the same. We customize our systems to fit your business model:



  • Membership & payment tracking: Stop guessing who’s current. Track recurring fees, class packs, and drop-ins in one place, and see at a glance who’s paid and who needs a nudge.
  • Expense categorization: No more messy spreadsheets. Log equipment, rent, and staff costs with clean labels so your numbers stay clear—and audit-ready.
  • Payroll & contractor management: Trainers, coaches, and part-timers get paid on schedule—without the last‑minute scramble or awkward follow‑ups.
  • Growth-focused financial systems: Set up your finances to stretch with you—new classes today, a bigger team next quarter, maybe a second location after that.

More Than Accounting:  Strategic Financial Support

We’re not just bookkeepers. Think of us as your financial partner who actually understands how gyms operate.


  • Expansion Planning: Adding new classes or opening another branch? We’ll help you model the numbers before you leap.


  • Billing Strategies: Keep members satisfied while boosting recurring revenue.
