So stuff like this if fascinating to me😅 I’m so incredibly proud of how far you’ve actually taken this business as well Ben.

    As always, very interesting insight of the process. I'm just a small physio in France but I'm trying to build my own place with a gym and a place to see my patients.
    Even at my scale it is very hard to do, so I cannot imagine how hard it must be for you to build something big like this.
    I'll be honest, i'm more interested in how you're building Gymshark than the brand itself lol. Only reason I bought some was when I saw the first video of this channel and wanted to support you :).

    What's crazy to see is that how much you've grown over the years and now with Christian Guzman long gone from the GymShark Team doing Alphalete, I can see you have the edge as of now with that machine to rapidly streamline and speed up production for the brand. I can't wait to see the day you go against Nike.

    As a concrete worker the few pictures you showed seemed rough. Surely the contracter has to take some of the cost? If all was communicated well beforehand. Looks to me the aggregate ended up at the bottom of their form before it hardened and they flipped it. By the looks of things it feels like they wanted to save a penny or two. Seems like too big aggregate were used, and it would be A LOT cooler if they went all out with barely no aggregate, and a polished concrete floor finish (Looks absolutely boss). It would be shiny and extremely classy, heck, even the rough edges would be gone if they didn't use that aggregate.

    Ben, I could watch you read the ingredients of a vitamin dispenser and find the presentation fascinating. For some reason, you have amazing delivery and sales abilities. You make Phil Knight look like a rank amateur in comparison. Stay classy, professional, and leading edge in terms of products and visuals and there is no limit to your achievements. Really, you need a bigger challenge. England needs you to turn around the whole country. With your God given persuasion, I think you could single handily transform England into a dynamic, cutting edge country away from the stuck in amber so called royals and political class. Wishing you Godspeed and love from a US subscriber. Coors beer cheers!!! On a sidenote, try and get Gymshark involved with the UFC, and hire Bas Rutten, El Guapo, as your spokesman. With Bas as your US rep, you would dominate the U.S. and world UFC market with his charisma and style to represent your brand and gym.
