US fitness franchise Snap Fitness is to open its second UK location in Milton Keynes next month (August), with the club to include equipment from Octane Fitness, Matrix and Jordan Leisure.

The group is the franchisor of more than 1,300 facilities around the world and is currently looking to expand across the UK, with plans in place for between 75 and 100 locations over the next five years.

The Snap Fitness concept aims to offer an affordable option for gym users, with its members paying on a month-by-month basis and having no contracts. It opened its first club in Sittingbourne, Kent earlier this year.
