“Culture eats strategy for breakfast!” “...change the size of the dream...have a system and be intelligent about it ...the guys that move slowly are the guys that get crushed…” “Ultimately you will be judged...make your goal one of giving back!” -Victor Brick
In Episode 120, the Two Fit Crazies had an AWESOME conversation with power couple, Victor and Lynne Brick who are bracing for a hurricane in Miami, Florida! This husband and wife team reveal how they went from teaching aerobics classes to owning over 65 Planet Fitness clubs (with 12 more in the pipeline), founding Brick Bodies Gyms across Maryland, to winning developer of the year multiple times and more! Victor and Lynne dish out tons of awesome advice learned in their 30+ years in the fitness industry! Although life wasn’t always smooth sailing for the Bricks, Victor and Lynne discuss the importance of having a “family first” attitude and how you will “change the size of your dream” as life unfolds.
In addition, Victor and Lynne speak about why they felt so compelled to create the John W. Brick Mental Health Foundation, a non-profit foundation that funds and promotes evidence-based research of holistic approaches to improve mental health. Named after Victor’s brother, who ultimately died from the drugs he was prescribed to control his schizophrenia, Victor and Lynne are on a mission to increase research and prove that holistic approaches can improve mental health!
