Built To Grow

Burnout doesn’t always look like collapse. Sometimes it’s quiet – just another late night, another underpriced session, another missed dinner with the kids...That’s where Lane and Payden Montgomery found themselves, thirteen years into running a gym. On paper, things looked fine. But behind the scenes, they were burnt out and stretched thin trying to keep up with a business that was too big, too messy, and too dependent on them.In this episode, Tim and Randy sit down with the Montgomerys to unpack their decision to completely flip their model – from large-group chaos to a clean, streamlined semi-private operation.They break down the exact moment they shut down large group training, what led to that call, and how it gave them back their time, their clarity, and their sanity.What’s cool about their story is how fast they moved once the decision was made. They went from 150 clients at $170 to nearly 100 clients at an average of $370 – more money, fewer headaches, and no more working 30 hours a week on the floor.
