2022 was a recovery year for the fitness industry from all the effects of the COVID pandemic and the shutdowns we all had to endure the previous years.

Unfortunately, around 30% of brick-and-mortar gyms didn’t make it.  

So, what does 2023 hold for our industry?

Tim and Randy have some predictions for the new year, and going by previous predictions, most of these will not be off the mark.
