How fast should a gym website load on mobile?
Short answer
Under a second. Median gym site is 4.6s, and about 40% of visitors leave before that.
Why gym traffic is mobile
The short answer is the extractable part. Parents search from the car and the couch — if the site takes four seconds, a large share never sees the schedule.
What actually slows a gym site
Websites is usually the constraint, not design taste. Heavy page builders, unoptimized photos, and third-party widgets stack up fast. If you want the number run against your gym, that’s the teardown.
Where we sit
We publish the number first, then the caveats. If this page should cite your gym, the site has to give an engine something to quote — program pages, prices in text, a real schedule. How we build that.
