Whether you’re wondering how to grow your gym’s visibility or seeking a competitive advantage, REX provides a structured, results-driven peer advisory experience to help you scale your business, increase profitability, and enhance your leadership skills.
REX members are 1.5-2x more profitable than the average club in their market
Take part in carefully curated Roundtable sessions and exclusive events with your industry peers
Start conversations and get access to resources that enhance your leadership and management skills
We commissioned Dr. Paul Bedford, the Retention Guru, to conduct the world’s largest fitness retention study:
700,000 members analyzed
200 million check-ins tracked
That’s 2–3x longer retention. And retention is revenue.
Running a gym without a Roundtable can be incredibly isolating and stressful. Retention challenges, staffing nightmares, and stiff competition are unavoidable challenges. The Solution? REX Roundtables
A REX Roundtable is your personal advisory board, composed of 15-18 smart and successful leaders who meet regularly to help each other improve the performance of their business and the quality and balance of their personal lives.
REX carefully crafts the chemistry of each Roundtable so there are no competitors, strong similarities, and a range of complementary expertise among the members. Roundtable sessions, chaired by a Master Facilitator, occur three times a year for 2-and-a-half days of informal, meaningful conversations, fun, and relaxation. The connections you make pay dividends year-round.
Our members share their experiences and touch on the value, camaraderie and business building results they’ve achieved by being part of REX Roundtables.

I wouldn’t have received much of that knowledge otherwise. For that reason alone, just feeling like I’m in tune and in step with everyone else in the industry, it’s well worthwhile.”
