In this episode of The Gym Owners Forum Podcast, Tom sits down with industry veteran Phil Learney for a deep-dive into the evolution of the fitness and wellness space.
From circadian rhythms to post-pandemic business resilience, this conversation explores how our biology, habits, and environments impact performance—not just in the gym, but in everyday life.
Phil explains why routine matters more than motivation, how gyms can take inspiration from hotel service models, and why the industry’s shift toward hybrid working, wellness-centred design, and inclusivity is here to stay.
We also discuss the surprising ways COVID reshaped the way we work and train, the role of new tools like GLP-1 in accessibility, and why structure—not perfection—is the key to long-term wellbeing.Whether you're a gym owner, coach, or just someone passionate about the future of fitness, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
