Group Fitness Doesn't Want Members To Become Autonomous
Do you think these two efforts are at odds with one another???
—-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The only two group fitness franchises I would invest in…
Industrious
If you want a well-organized, high operational capacity, barbell-based group fitness experience (aka CrossFit without the stupid shit), then you need to look into Industrious. Click here and I’ll personally connect you with the Industrious franchise team to learn more.
MADabolic
If you’re looking for one of the fastest growing brands in the boutique fitness space that leverages gritty branding, strength-focused programming (but without the barbell and other space suckers) and has over 30 opened locations nationwide, then you’ll definitely want to get in touch with the MADabolic franchise team by clicking here.

I solve problems in your business and make you more money. Guaranteed.
For over a decade I’ve been working with gym owners (via one-on-one consulting) to help create tailored solutions to solve their business problems, engineer the game plan and empower them to execute the strategy.
Stop wishing your business problems are going to magically go away.
Invest in your business and let me solve your problems and optimize your business fast and efficiently.
We’ll work together daily/weekly, with a monthly call until the problem is solved and then I want you to fire me. Because this is YOUR business, I’m just here to solve a specific problem and then get out of your way.
Learn more about what it’s like for us to work together.

Need help leasing or buying a building?
I created the Gym Real Estate Company so that gym owners had someone who could go beyond the duties of a typical real estate broker and actually advise them on business aspects as they relate to site selection, market location fit, operational capacity, facility layout, pre-sell marketing, and more.
If you’re looking for help with your next lease or if you want us to help you along the journey of buying a building - head over to www.gymrealestate.co and book a Discovery Call.

Catching Up w/ Sean Pastuch
My friend and colleague, Dr. Sean Pastuch (founder of Active Life) and I keep in touch regularly. However, it had been a minute since we had a catch-up call, so we decided to double-dip and record it as a podcast as well.

The Nuance Of Your Problem Is Probably Not Relevant To Solving It
Everyone with a business problem has a 10-minute backstory as to why it's a problem, how it became a problem and all the in's and out's that ultimately do not actually lead the person to a solution.
Here's how I recommend looking at it.

Shoot The Shit | Finley & Landon Funsten
Finley began her journey with MADabolic as a client, then became a trainer, evolved to a GM, and eventually part owner of a 2-location portfolio in Charlotte, NC. At that point, her husband (Landon), quit his corporate career and the two of them purchased 100% of the portfolio equity and then opened a 3rd location.
We jam on topics ranging from evolving through the ranks from trainer to owner, working side by side with your spouse and future growth plans for themselves and the MADabolic brand.
Ladies and gentlemen, Finley & Landon Funsten.

Customer Reviews
Best info for a gym owner
This is hands down the top choice for gym owners seeking actionable advice. Stu provides practical insights that can be immediately implemented to enhance operations and drive growth. Stu also has some of the best in the field on his shows to compliment his extensive knowledge on every topic/issue a gym owner would need help with.
Way More Helpful Than the $350/month fitness mastermind group I was in!
Have been listing to podcast for several months and enrolled in MicroGyM University recently. Way more valuable than the $350 a month mastermind I was in. Our two personal training studios are benefiting greatly from Stu’s content.
He’s been there. Experienced it. And knows his stuff.
Solid podcast! Not only does he know his stuff, but it’s also crazy entertaining. Keep crushing it.
