What\u2019s up Gym World?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Being a CrossFit affiliate means you\u2019re qualified to teach the CrossFit methodology and use the brand name, but it doesn\u2019t lock you into the group training model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yet, that\u2019s the path most affiliates take.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And while we\u2019ve seen success with this model in gyms like Dan Chaffey<\/a>\u2019s, we\u2019ve also seen why it\u2019s not the most efficient approach<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yet, the large group model is the only one taught by HQ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dan Purington<\/a> from Woodslawn Fitness<\/a> is a prime example of how an alternative model can be successful. The pandemic forced him to try a smaller group model, which worked well for his business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, his gym generates over $50k\/mo\u2014three times what the average affiliate<\/a> earns\u2014and most of his revenue comes from semi-private training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
