Description

You know the scenario: An athletic gym owner spends a lot of time training for fitness competitions.

So what happens to the business? Does it lumber along and eventually crumble because the owner's attention is elsewhere? Or can some owners divide their focus and achieve competition goals while building thriving businesses?

Chris Cooper digs into the question today with the help of two gym-owning athletes.

Two-Brain mentor Taryn Dubreuil runs CrossFit Function and says "competition" is her middle name. She narrowly missed qualifying for the CrossFit Games back in the day and still trains hard for other competitions.

Travis Mayer has competed in the CrossFit Games eight times, he owns CrossFit UNTD, and he's got four kids.

Taryn and Travis chat with Coop to give their perspective on building a great business and achieving personal athletic goals. As you can imagine, time management is critical.

What do you think? Can a gym owner compete and build a great business at the same time?
