Awesome! You could certainly figure out how to make people work to greatest advantage.... BUT you'd have to stifle the inner masochist/workaholic in order to tolerate a lot of babies and slackers. Well, you would if you wanted to make a profit.... Which isn't so easy if you're tied down to a building and equipment--whether you own it or rent it--which puts you at the mercy of financial forces beyond your control. There's a reason why so many gyms are syndicates, franchises or large chains, you know....
MY business, on the other hand, is all profit--and it enables a fitness pro to be selective and work only with clients who "deserve" what we want to work so hard to give them--when we want to :)
You should explain more about your job to me sometime and how that all works. I am rather interested. Did you have to get qualified at all?
My thoughts on the subject are that without silly things like ellipticals, spinning classes, or isolation machines in my gym, people who expect those kind of workouts would weed themselves out. I can't imagine my place being a gym for babies or slackers, especially with my kind of workouts.
And as for finances, a lot of this would simply be self-financed as I'm sick of PC gyms with shit music and nothing but cybex equipment and only 1 pullup bar, buried away in a corner. I would build this gym simply for my own training - if you want in on it...well, then I can start making back the money.
