🎙️ Episode 13 - In this episode of The Franchise Champion Show, Alan interviews Josh York, founder and CEO of GymGuyz, the world's largest in-home personal training franchise. Josh shares his incredible journey from making $150K as a personal trainer at age 17 to building a global franchise empire spanning seven countries and 32 states. He opens up about his unmatched energy and discipline, why he's "one of one," and his philosophy that "pain is part of the process." Josh discusses why semi-absentee franchising doesn't work, the importance of calculated discipline (calling himself "a sniper's best friend"), his approach to building franchise culture through community and leadership, why most people are "soft like marshmallows and fold like cheap chairs," and how GymGuyz is transforming lives from children with disabilities to 104-year-old clients who can plank for a minute.
