You can manage a full-time career and own a gym—it just takes some finesse.

In this episode, Chris Cooper explains how you should set up your side-hustle gym to ensure profitability. Then you have the option to leave your day job or keep the gym as an income generator on the side.

Whatever you do, don't just leap and try to build wings on the way down. The chasm between a solid day job and entrepreneurship is filled with wreckage. But Coop's got a host of ways to reduce your risk and ensure success.

If you have ever thought of opening a gym on the side, listen to this show first!

And if you eventually want to own a gym without running it personally, Coop will tell you how to offload tasks so you can do that, too.
