BREAKING NEWS on the Future of Flight House Gym, & Jay Collins' Quest to Build the Nation's TOP Fitness Brand!
This episode is sponsored by
Flight House Fitness is on a mission to revolutionize the fitness industry.
And Jay Collins will not stop until that vision has come to life.
Formerly the owner of MaxEdge Fitness, the 59-year-old Collins bet the house (literally) a few years ago when he built Flight House Gym in Rye , a massive facility combining group training classes and open gym space in ways the Seacoast had never seen before.
Then, just three months ago, he launched Flight House into its next era when he opened an incredible 24,000 square foot facility in Charlestown, Mass., a gym that's attracting intense social media attention, celebrities, athletes and comparisons to the New England Patriots' own facilities.
And after seeing the early success of Flight House in Charlestown, Collins is ready to bring that concept - which also features yoga and pilates classes and a recovery center - to the Seacoast, which he reveals for the very first time on today's show.
From Flight House Gym in Charlestown, Collins joins host Troy Farkas for the third time to discuss the early success of the Charlestown location, what makes this gym one of the very best in the country, why he's already looking at bringing Flight House to other major U.S. cities, his growth as an entrepreneur, and how he's bringing the new-and-improved Flight House to the Seacoast.
