    3x Small Group Personal Training Gym Growth

    This week, we're joined by Conor, founder of CB Training Club, who has built a three-site gym business with an impressive focus on member retention, team development and community. Over five years, his business has averaged just 0.8 members leaving per month. So, what's behind those numbers? Conor shares how he built a scalable small group personal training model, why he chose full-time employees over relying on contractors, and how bringing sales in-house helped the business follow up with leads more effectively. He also explains why gym owners should focus on delivering an exceptional service rather than constantly adding more offers, systems and check-ins. If you're looking to grow your gym, build a stronger team and keep members for longer, this episode is packed with practical lessons. Key highlights of this episode include: ✅ How to build a gym that loses fewer than one member monthly. ✅ Why small group personal training can outperform traditional one-to-one coaching. ✅ The lease negotiation strategies that protect new gym owners financially. ✅ How hiring full-time staff creates stronger teams and scalable growth. ✅ Why exceptional service and community are the keys to retention.

    This week, we're joined by Duncan Lloyd from Profit Genie, an accountant who works with fitness businesses and helps gym owners take control of their finances.

    Why More Gym Revenue Doesn’t Mean More Profit

    This week, we’re joined by Nicky, a former personal trainer and gym owner who built, scaled, and eventually sold his own fitness business before moving into business coaching for fitness professionals. In this episode, Nicky breaks down why simply chasing more clients, revenue or locations can leave gym owners with more stress but no meaningful increase in personal income. He shares his approach to financial tracking, owner compensation, cash flow, and building a business around the lifestyle you actually want. The conversation also explores why gym owners should focus on making their core business profitable before expanding, and why personalised coaching and accountability can be so important when changing the way a business operates. Key highlights of this episode include: ✅ Why growing revenue does not guarantee higher owner compensation. ✅ How tracking cash flow can uncover hidden business problems. ✅ Why paying yourself first can change your business decisions. ✅ The danger of opening multiple sites too soon. ✅ How to build a business around your desired lifestyle.

    The Future of Independent Gyms Is Changing Fast

    This week, we’re joined by Tom Clayton-Wright from Gym Owners Forum, where he works to support independent gym owners, raise industry standards, and create a stronger community for gym operators. We dive into the challenges facing independent gyms, including rising business costs and the need for greater industry representation. Tom also shares why gym owners need to consistently invest in themselves, how peer-to-peer learning can accelerate growth, and how data, wellness, and AI could shape the future of the fitness industry. The conversation also explores how one gym went from 400 to 2,000 members by focusing on the basics, improving the facility and consistently delivering value rather than relying on one clever marketing tactic. Key highlights of this episode include: ✅ Why independent gyms are struggling under rising business costs. ✅ How collective action can finally get government attention. ✅ Why gym owners must consistently invest in their own growth. ✅ How data can replace gut instinct when making decisions. ✅ Why AI and wellness could transform the gym industry.
