🧠 Valuation Insight: Revenue May Be Ripped, But Is It Real?

 💪 Gym and fitness studio valuations often flex the wrong muscle:

  • Membership spikes aren’t sustained post-New Year
  • Owner is the head trainer, brand, and salesperson
  • Equipment is outdated, leased, or seller-retained
  • Addbacks assume all labor is variable (it’s not)

📌 Normalize for reality, not January optimism.
