Build Your Business Quickly and Profitably with Our Turnkey Business System
Athletic Nation Men's Personal Training Gyms are based on the book, ‘Reality Fitness in 90 Days...For Men’, written by company founder, Dennis Mulgannon. Our low-investment, turnkey gyms are reminiscent of a high school weight room circa 1977 with free weights and personal training. We locate our gyms in office complexes rather than retail locations, saving you a considerable amount of money on rent. Clients are loyal to our brand because they get noticeable results that motivate them to keep coming back.
Men’s Gyms are Virtually an Untapped Franchise Opportunity
Athletic Nation is the only true Men's Personal Training Gym on the franchise market. All other men’s gyms are emulating the circuit training model similar to Curves for Women. We are very unique to the industry and our niche market is virtually untapped with little competition. Studies show that over the next ten years U.S. baby boomers are projected to increase annual spending on health and wellness from $200 billion to $1 trillion. There are an estimated 35 million male boomers in the U.S. This is our primary target market. Our member profile is married, professional males age 35 to 65 in the mid-to-upper income range. The difference between us and other training studios is:
