🚀 Big News: We’ve Rebranded! 🚀

Welcome back to the podcast! The first thing you’ll notice—our name has changed from Gym Owner Freedom to The Profit Lifestyle for Fitness Entrepreneurs. In this episode, we’re diving into why we made this shift and what you can expect moving forward.


THE show for gym owners wanting to achieve more FREEDOM in their lives through their business... and create more time, money, and impact for themselves and their communities.

The hard way to grow is by doubling your membership. The easy way to grow is to learn how to double your average client value so you need half as many clients (it's not as hard as you think... for any business model).

Learn from Scott Carpenter, a 6x functionally retired gym owner and fitness author with multiple 7-figure businesses, as he walks you through exactly how he started his gyms and the best practices he uses in the fitness industry for marketing, advertising, sales, fulfillment, retention, hiring, systems, operations, and location scaling.

Gym Owner Freedom: More Money. Less Clients.

    ✅ The zoning trap that nearly cost him $160K—and how he avoided it

    Jul 21 2025

    🏢 Real Estate Tactics That Could Save (or Sink) Your Fitness Business

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

    In this episode, we’re diving deep into one of the most overlooked—but absolutely critical—topics for gym owners: lease negotiation. Whether you're opening a new location or staring down a renewal, the fine print in your lease can make or break your entire business.

    💥 These are multi-six-figure deals with massive liability—and Scott and Andy are giving you the playbook to negotiate like a pro, avoid hidden landmines, and even flip the leverage in your favor.

    What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

    ✅ The #1 biggest risk to your business (hint: it’s your lease)

    ✅ Why personal guarantees can wreck your financial life

    ✅ Scott’s favorite strategy for negotiating tenant improvements

    ✅ How to avoid getting stuck with a $20K HVAC bill

    ✅ The “exclusive use” clause that can protect you from direct competition

    ✅ How to approach mom-and-pop landlords vs. big corporate REITs

    ✅ The power of Letters of Intent—and how to write one that anchors YOUR terms

    ✅ Creative tactics to get free rent, escape 3% annual increases, and win favorable renewal options

    ✅ What to do if your lease is already signed (and how to renegotiate smart)

    From finding your dream space to navigating shady clauses and sneaky fees, this episode is your real estate armor. Don’t sign another lease—or get trapped in a bad one—until you’ve heard this.

    🧠 Bonus: Learn how Scott turned a terrible leasing situation into an opportunity to buy his own building—and flipped the script with two middle fingers up.
