Manning SumnerGUEST
it's been interesting because i i So my motto, no days off has never taken a day off on you.

Manning SumnerGUEST
And so it's been kind of like a gift and a curse when it comes to the gyms, because it's not some copy and paste model.

Larry WeidelHOST
How would you measure your success and let people realize, get a quick eyeball snapshot of what you've been able to do in the gym industry and in the fitness world?

Manning SumnerGUEST
Well, I think you have to start to recognize that you're in the service industry.

Manning SumnerGUEST
So I think if you get into the gym business, you definitely are not in it for just the money.

Manning SumnerGUEST
So I think my first measure of success is how many people are we able to serve on a daily basis and actually influence them in a positive way and leave a mark on their life that they can live out through their relationships, their own work, their families, things like that.

Manning SumnerGUEST
And obviously physically, spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and being that anchor for people's lives.

Manning SumnerGUEST
I mean, I think that's really what, to me, what fitness and gym is all about is being that stable thing that they always know we're here, that they always know they're going to have a safe place, a good environment to come to, a clean environment, a motivating environment.
