Over the last 7 months, I’ve had the pleasure of coaching Kyra Seiler 1-on-1. Kyra is the founder of Salus Strength. She used to train clients out of a commercial gym. The problem was she couldn’t control the environment, the equipment, or the experience she wanted to deliver. Growth was limited and everything depended on someone else’s setup. But then Kyra committed to building her own studio and we put a clear plan in place. Which led to opening Salus Strength in Auckland, generating $79,556 NZD in her first full quarter, increasing average client training frequency from 1.1 to 1.7 sessions per week, hiring a high-quality trainer with a Masters in exercise, and building a system ready to scale in 2026. And here’s what actually made it work: She followed the plan. When we set the steps, she executed. She stuck to the process. She got clear on the business she wanted and who she needed. Her trainer went through a rigorous right person, right seat hiring process. She worked hard. Daily. She reached out when she got stuck. One bad hire could have cost her months. We fixed it fast and moved on. She stayed focused. No distractions. Just great workouts, a great client experience, developing her trainer, and recruiting the right people. That’s the difference. Well done, Kyra. Here’s to an even bigger Q2!

Anyone here running their coaching business with just a barbell, dumbbells, and a basic rack setup? Is that a conscious choice, or just what you’ve got available? I’ve got two clients at the moment — one is flying and has picked up the movement patterns quickly. The other is struggling more, especially with hinge and squat patterns. Part of me thinks he’d progress faster using machines, just to get him moving and building confidence. But at the same time, I think sticking with free weights could be better long term, especially for improving his mobility and overall movement quality.
