Finance options
Hey Team, I'm wondering about finance options for Fitness Equipment and everyone's experiences with this. I am in Australia so if there are members in this group that have advice regarding Australian companies to use I'd be grateful. Any and all advice would be appreciated cheers Gil.

I don’t finance in Australia but when you’re reading the finance contract, slowly and carefully look for triggers that cost you money. late fees, automatic renewals, etc.

@Gilbert Gurney it depends on who your market is. Fit20 does it with 6 nautilus one machines, DS has 20 different pieces, some people do virtual with straps.
Workout frequency for optimal health benefits?
Since we know how beneficial strength training is for all types of physiological effects like glucose uptake, blood pressure improvements, cardiovascular improvements, mental wellness, etc; what would be the optimal dose and frequency to maximize all the health benefits of strength training? Obviously, for muscle hypertrophy and strength gains we need rest in-between workouts, but are we missing out on all the other, maybe even more important, benefits of strength training by limiting our sessions to once or twice a week? I’m curious if maybe training more frequently, but using a split routine might get you the health benefits from strength training without overtraining problems. How best to balance out all the benefits of strength training through increasing frequency with the need for rest and recovery and super-adaptation. Thoughts?

I believe that more days per week when you’re starting is best. I call it the creep, when you know you’re going to train you’re more likely to see food as fuel so you’re less likely to eat garbage. After you train you will not want to disrespect your effort by eating junk either. People start substituting water, coconut water for energy drinks etc. I think after someone comes in for 3 times a week for a month, then you downshift to twice, and maybe graduate to once week.

@Lawrence Neal I did, I like the social aspect of going to the gym, I'm 58, and super fit so I like to shame the broccoli haired nitwits, be a benchmark for the other older guys, and provide eye candy for the gals with daddy issues
Suggestions on HIT machines
Hi Lawrence, I’m currently planning to set up a practice/studio. The total space is about 160 m², with approximately 110 m² allocated for training equipment. I’m considering working with around 10–12 machines, leaving the space uncluttered—potentially even fitting more if needed. I already have some experience in this area: back in 2007, I ran a practice that included a MedX LE machine along with about 10 other MedX training machines. Now, I’m wondering what my options are if I’m based in Germany (Europe) and don’t have easy access to MedX or Imagine Strength equipment. In principle, many machines could be used for controlled and slow training, but I suspect most might not be optimal for this purpose. For instance, I’ve looked into Nautilus One machines from a Chinese manufacturer and wonder if such machines could also be suitable for this approach. I even found one manufacture, that reproduce the old Nautilus machines 1:1, but they look very outdated today, to be honest. I’d also be interested in joining High Intensity Business Premium, but I’d like to first evaluate whether the method can be successfully implemented here given the available equipment options.

I have been an owner/ operator of many health clubs over the past 30 years. I have been part of franchise owners groups, trade associations, executive roundtables, and had great consultants, nothing has come remotely close to the value and quality Lawrence has brought to me. I’m happy to write this and welcome anyone to reach out to me.
All in one options
I’m wondering if there is anything out there that someone might recommend that could work similarly to the David AIO. Looking for options for a small footprint that would fit in an office space. Any thoughts?
