Throwing this out for discussion!!!! I was discussing this with one of my Premier Clients.How about ANELLO BODY FITNESS FRANCHISE??? I have no idea how to do it or if it would succeed!!!! When I first started Powerlifting I entered a meet in York PA where The Strength hall of Fame is.I visited it and was inspired!!! The took last place in the contest and there were those that said I Would never win a trophy in Lifting!!!! Thirty some years later I was Inducted in The Hall Of Fame!!! I know little about Business.But I have had My Gym for 8 years!!!MY MAIN CONCERN is MY CLIENTS SUCCESS NOT MONETARY SUCCESS!!! I have However,despite views of the contrary,been able to run a successful business!!! We thought of a Vegas Franchise(ONLY A THOUGHT) Each Gym would be Trained in my Techniques and WOULD DEFINITELY HAVE A RESCUE GREYHOUND!!!!.It would be a Way for me to pass on to those Trainers in The Future,a SINCERE way TO HELP PEOPLE Rather than a TECHNIQUE TO MAKE MONEY AND DECEIT,like some of the Trainers I have witnessed!!! I welcome any feedback!!! Thanks Vince and Betsy

Vince, its sounds like you're wanting to do something that far exceeds what most trainers/businessmen are after these days. In a word INTEGRITY! I think its a great idea, you would be passing on your experience and expertize for the generations to come! You were an early inspiration for me. I can remember reading about you in the old Hoffman Muscular Development back in the 70's when I was first getting started! You continue to inspire and amaze me and this just sounds like a natural progression for you to pursue!

Just dont jump into anything that is going to make you forget what you love to do! I see it too often with the fitness industry. I like you started training clients as a passion. Making $ was the last thought on my mind. I have grown myself to where I am today which is great, because I like you did all through hard work and a passion to help others. Sometimes something like a franchise can suck up all your energy to the point that you forget about the individual client due to being consumed with the buisness aspect of it all. Just seen it happen alot.
Something to think about is all.
Still love your idea if doable on these terms..
