Japan’s largest leasing and rental subscription service for training equipment, fitness goods, martial arts supplies, and sauna equipment, GYM CLOUD (Gym Cloud), announces the renewal of its annual sponsorship contract with the martial arts event RIZIN for the 2022 fiscal year, continuing a partnership that began in 2020.

Since shortly after its founding, GYM CLOUD has partnered with the martial arts event RIZIN as a sponsor, growing together alongside it. Currently, GYM CLOUD has grown to become the number one company in Japan’s rental and leasing market for training equipment, fitness goods, and sauna equipment, while RIZIN has also become the top martial arts event promoter in Japan.

Going forward, GYM CLOUD aims to promote environmental improvements for a broad range of customers, including home gyms (individuals), training facilities, fitness centers, lodging facilities, public institutions, schools, osteopathic clinics, massage centers, esthetic salons, sports events, bathing facilities, and other private enterprises. Our goal is to contribute to increasing the exercise participation rate among the Japanese population.

▼ Five Features of GYM CLOUD (Gym Cloud)

■ No initial fees, free shipping, free installation, and easy start with monthly fees only.
Whether installing training machines or saunas at home, or opening training gyms or sauna facilities, there is no longer a need for the most costly machine and equipment purchase fees. You can easily start with an affordable monthly fee.

Recently, many entrepreneurs have opened training or sauna facilities through GYM CLOUD, and we also provide strong support for such startups.

As Japan’s largest rental service for training and sauna equipment, GYM CLOUD offers the industry’s first subscription model. No borrowing, no screening, and no loans are required, making it easy to turn your home or facility into a training gym.

■ No depreciation burden; full monthly fee can be expensed.
Training equipment had been subject to a 3-year depreciation schedule, preventing full expense booking in the first year and impacting gym management. By using GYM CLOUD, the entire monthly fee can be recorded as an expense, making financial management easier. This system is convenient for new equipment introduction or replacement in any scenario.

■ Over 150 manufacturers and 14,000+ products to choose from, the industry’s highest degree of freedom.
GYM CLOUD partners with over 150 manufacturers domestically and internationally and offers more than 14,000 products. You can freely select gym equipment to customize according to space and budget, backed by expert customer support.

Sauna openings are increasing monthly, with over 250 standard models available plus fully custom-built installations. Trust GYM CLOUD for sauna openings as well.

■ Regular equipment replacement possible to maintain the latest facilities.
Over time, gym equipment wears or breaks down. GYM CLOUD offers manufacturer warranties and insurance support packages with Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance, allowing worry-free use. Machines can be regularly returned or replaced to keep your facility equipped with the latest gear.

The same applies to home gyms, enabling training on the latest machines at all times.

■ One-stop service from assembly, installation, dismantling, and removal.
From training to sauna equipment, GYM CLOUD handles all assembly, installation, dismantling, and removal. We manage the entire rental-to-return process to minimize customer burden. For corporate clients, construction during facility openings is also supported, including fully custom builds.

GYM CLOUD will continue to promote “environmental improvements across industries” by advancing “easy introduction environments for homes and facilities” and supporting people’s health.

In addition, including RIZIN, we are committed to enhancing training environments in the sports industry to help Japanese athletes perform at their best on the international stage.
