Mobile Fitness Brand Heats Up Westchester County By Bringing Personal Training To Customers\u2019 Door<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PLAINVIEW, N.Y. \u2014 GYMGUYZ, the mobile fitness and personal training brand, recently announced their decision to expand on a national scale through franchising in order to meet the growing demand for convenient, quality personal training. The 5-year-old brand has just pronounced another milestone toward national growth \u2014 the signing of 13 territories to their first franchisee, Sam Langer, to introduce GYMGUYZ to the Westchester County, N.Y. territory. According to Josh York, founder and CEO of GYMGUYZ, 24-year-old Langer is a perfect match for the aggressively expanding franchise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re ecstatic to have a smart, entrepreneurial and enthusiastic person like Sam to match the ambitious vision of GYMGUYZ,\u201d said York. \u201cAs our first franchisee, he\u2019s setting a fantastic precedent for the caliber of our entire future system.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Langer has an impressive resume that York predicts will prime the new franchisee for success. The lifetime resident of Irvington, N.Y. relocated to the Midwest at the age of 18 to attend Indiana University and pursue his B.A. in business. Upon graduating and breaking into the business industry, Langer landed a dream job for any passionate sports fan \u2014 a project sports planner for ESPN. However, while working in the sports industry, Langer entertained another passion: fitness and personal training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfter I graduated, I had two main jobs \u2014 both with long hours, long commutes and very little down time \u2014 but I always found time in my day to get to the gym, go for a run or get active,\u201d said Langer. \u201cHowever, I didn\u2019t necessarily see the same motivation for fitness in my colleagues. I encouraged them to eat healthy, bring their own lunch, go to the gym and do simple workouts in the office, and in the process, became my office\u2019s impromptu resident personal trainer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Langer shortly thereafter caught wind of an opportunity to turn his extracurricular passion for fitness into his profession. While on vacation, Langer\u2019s parents had a chance run-in with York and his wife. After the couples exchanged pleasantries, they moved onto the subject of professions, and York explained the decision to franchise his mobile fitness business. Within minutes of hearing about York\u2019s business, the parents called up their then-24-year-old son and connected the two men to talk shop. Since the serendipitous meeting in December 2013, Langer has been full-speed ahead with GYMGUYZ and is now planning to open for business by March 1, 2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, Langer\u2019s entrepreneurial drive for fitness parallels York\u2019s history of founding GYMGUYZ. When he was just 25-years-old, York started pursuing his dream of building his own fitness business, even if it meant operating the company out of his parents\u2019 living room. York says that the idea for GYMGUYZ came to him after graduating from college while he was working for a marketing firm during the day and personal training in the evenings. Synthesizing his marketing savvy, creativity, and passion for fitness, York came up with the unique idea of a mobile fitness company that brings all the quality equipment and services of a gym to the setting of the customer\u2019s choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Five years after founding GYMGUYZ, the ambitious 30-year-old has continued building his fledgling fitness concept to full-grown status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur concept is based on the principle of convenience, delivered with a revolutionary approach,\u201d said York. \u201cWe literally mobilize our staff of certified personal trainers to bring our state-of-the-art fitness equipment and training programs to the most accessible venue possible\u2014their doors. It\u2019s that game-changing strategy that will allow us to continue growing our clientele through excellent service, as well as our national presence through franchising.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a focus on highly personalized training programs, each partnership begins with a series of assessments evaluating body, measurements, nutrition, fitness and personal goals in order to determine the ideal course of action for the client. GYMGUYZ trainers then use their expertise to structure workouts that will help each client meet his or her individual needs, tracking progress over the course and reevaluating them with a reassessment every 15-weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the business perspective, York also said that he hopes Langer will be the first of an extremely capable and successful network of GYMGUYZ franchisees, as he debuts the brand to Westchester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re gearing up for a record year of growth, given the extraordinary demand for top-notch fitness expertise, in addition to the demand for prime business ownership opportunities in a booming industry,\u201d York said. \u201cIndividuals like Langer with a passion for fitness and business will be ideal operators to help lay a proper foundation as GYMGUYZ continues growing on a national scale.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
