Alloy Personal Training Business How Alloy's Rapid Growth Is Shaping the Fitness Industry
In this episode, Rick discusses Alloys’ rapid growth and the changing landscape of the fitness industry.
Rick reveals how Alloy has been able to scale its fitness franchise model, now with over 300 locations sold and 100 open, all while catering to an underserved age group: 45-65-year-olds.
He also highlights how the wellness space is becoming increasingly complex with trends like cold plunges and extreme diets, and how the focus should return to foundational practices like strength training and regular movement.
Rick shares his philosophy of focusing on strength training first, followed by cardiovascular health through walking, and a small amount of high-intensity effort to finish the session. He also talks about the growing awareness of wellness, with innovations like GLP-1 weight loss drugs and their relationship to fitness. Strength training can help mitigate some of their potential downsides.
Tune in to hear Rick's thoughts on the future of fitness and wellness.
