🔥 The Uncomfortable Question That Will Change Your Business Forever 🔥

Welcome back to The Profit Lifestyle for Fitness Entrepreneurs with your hosts Scott Carpenter and Andy Boimila!

In this episode, Scott and Andy pull back the curtain on a tough but necessary conversation: what to do when you feel like you should be further ahead by now.

Whether you’ve been grinding for 3 years or 30, that thought hits hard—and today, they’re tackling it head-on.

💡 Think you're working hard but not seeing the results? It might be time to stop doing the hard thing that's actually the easy way out—and start making smart moves that actually move the needle.

This is a wake-up call for gym owners still doing everything themselves, running in circles, and wondering why they’re not growing.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ Why “I should be further ahead” is a double-edged sword—and how to use it to fuel growth

✅ The six core areas of every profitable fitness business (yes, you need ALL of them)

✅ How to identify the real bottlenecks that are quietly killing your growth

✅ The problem with chasing one-size-fits-all marketing tactics

✅ How to avoid the martyr trap (working 60+ hours and calling it “grind”)

✅ Why fear is paralyzing your progress—and how to beat it with strategy

✅ The “Winnable Model” framework that every gym owner should use to assess their business

✅ What it really means to get ahead in today’s economy (and why “just getting by” is actually falling behind)

✅ How to rank the 6 systems in your business to find the biggest gaps—fast

Whether you’re running a solo PT studio or managing a multi-location gym, this episode will help you stop spinning your wheels and finally start building a business that gives you income AND freedom.
