Starting over is hard and if I’m being honest it’s a little scary…
As a personal trainer who’s worked at every commercial gym and franchise from Willis to Klein in the last decade and still felt like I could offer more to my community and my clients, I took a big leap of faith and opened my own gym.
Nothing fancy. Just took my garage gym and a couple upgrades to a decent sized warehouse and was going to focus on what I do best. Helping people move and feel better and get STRONGER.
No one came.
I had a handful of clients that trusted me but no new business for 3 months in the new gym.
It was hard because all of the money that was going into the gym was my own money so it just felt like my most expensive gym membership.
After 3 months of advertising, going to events and handing out flyers and business cards; people finally started to come in and the word of mouth from those new satisfied clients built a busy gym. All of a sudden, it didn’t just feel busy. It felt cramped.
So here we are starting the expansion of Stronger Training. We are growing! And it kinda feels like I’m starting over. Only this time, it’s not just my wife and I. It’s the community we’ve built together and hope. All that hard work, paying off. Time to get even STRONGER!
