If you're not making money, then your gym isn't sustainable, and you'll never have a lasting impact in your community.But sustainability isn't enough. You must make enough income to provide for your present needs ... and enough to pay for your future too.To really be successful, you can't expect to work until the day you die. You need to gather enough assets, investments and cash to pay for your lifestyle after your income stops.This book will tell you exactly how to do that, and share a dozen real-life examples and stories from real millionaires who own gyms.

Here are 12 who have.
