I think it's a nice project, well executed and sorta scratches an itch. I think if you actually want to try to get some usage, you're going to really have to put your business/growth hat on and really try and understand why people would use it, how they're going to find it, one or 2 key "wow" features, etc.

It seems like the focus is more to get one's feet wet with Phoenix/Elixir (especially as the OP refers to a tutorial series he wants to write) - not making this site into a wildly successful business

And that's totally fine (sort of). But sounded like author wanted to take it further.

Definitely working on that right now. People constantly move and travel, so they will be google searching for "gyms near X", so one strategy is SEO.
The wow features I feel like are going to be in being able to buy gym passes online (and cancel them). Basically try and circumvent the terribly oppressive process of not being able to cancel your membership.
