Stepping down as a mod

Provided I have the $$ (no idea how much markos charges), I would. I reckon motivation levels would be very high at a place like that.
 
Isn't PTC PTC because of Markos?
I would say so, yes.

However, there are definitely other competent coaches out there. It's just that most of them are not as good at self-promotion as Markos is, so they'd need some help in that area. Traditionally that's what franchising is about, take the name of someone successful, take their marketing advice, add your own competence, and away you go.
 
Charges would be entirely up to owner/operator.

In the beginning, I mean day one, I dont think anyone was doing what we were doing in a garage, having comps, only lifters dedicated to improving, quality equipment etc

We basically eliminated everything that pissed people off. Except me.

The training ideals I adopted were not mine, they come from the past.

In 3 and a bit years, lifters everywhere have progressed by stripping the programs down, not adding fluff.

There are definitely people around now who could be just as successful as PTC has proven to be, no doubt at all.

All the hurdles I faced in the beginning, you guys would get a shock if I posted on here, are not there for franchises.

I paid full price for every piece of equipment in the beginning.

I never had a network of lifters wanting to compete.

No merchandise

No internet persona. PTC website is closing in on 40,000 unique vists, Youtube is at 70,000, ProRaw website just starting etc

Yes, there is a strong possibility for a PTC gym in Perth
 
You guys give me far too much credit.

PTC is PTC because of the clients, trust me.

All I did was keep the fuckheads out.

Painful financially, nirvana mentally.

Wayne, hoping you will hold CAPO comps in the future, and be the Tassie rep.

I reckon I have a CAPO rep for SA, with a gym.

Now with a 3 gyms in NSW holding CAPO comps, good times
 
I was so hoping you would say Sydney...

Sydney has nothing!

Would of been good for some extra motivation...

Guess its training in my garage for now :)
