[MM]: Big things start small (194,000 item donation)

 

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

Back in 2021, my friend and franchise partner CJ, who has a heart of gold, came to me and our HQ team with an idea.

“Bryce, we do such great work here at Fit Body helping our clients with their fitness and fat loss goals, but know we can do even more! 

As we know, Thanksgiving is an amazing time but can be tough for those in need. What if we create a giant food drive with all of the brand participating to help out the less fortunate and make a massive impact together?

He then began to draw out a plan on a whiteboard and finished his pitch with this:

“If we execute well, I think we can raise over 100,000 food items together”.

Well, on CJ’s and his teams back, we launched the vision in 2022 and we called it the Fit Body Food Battle.

It was a small start but we started.

Fast forward a few years, and our 3rd Annual Fit Body Food Battle results are in as of last week. 

The good news?

We beat last year’s tally coming in at 194,200 food items donated as a brand. 

That’s right, this little vision produced 194,200 food items of donation to help the less fortunate!

What’s even better?

Friends and Franchise Partners Abe and Danika from North Meridian Fit Body in Idaho took 1st place with 30,899 items donated. 

We are grateful for the massive contribution!

Looking ahead to 2025, with your help, we know can do better though with our target of donating over ¼ million mark.

Today’s message?

Big things start small. So get to starting!

Make it a GREAT week!

[MM]: God is an Amazing Personal Trainer

 

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

This past weekend was fulfilling as my business partners, Bedros, Jay Redman and I put on a Legacy Tribe Meet-Up event.

Legacy Tribe is a stand-alone business development coaching program. It is also a program that introduces entrepreneurs to our Fit Body Boot Camp ownership opportunity.

Saturday’s meet-up was an action-packed day of presentations.

It was a great way to connect, learn, and share leadership business development strategies to grow the group’s income, impact, and legacy.

Bedros, founder of Fit Body, gave a great keynote on happiness and 1 thing he said struck me.

“God is an Amazing Personal Trainer.”

I was confused at first.

However,  it made sense once he elaborated. 

Most time people pray to God asking for success and strength to push through the hard things that life can bring.

But here’s the issue.

Upon asking for strength, many times as humans we are surprised & confused at the resistance he puts in our way as a response.

B’s question was to ask yourself this:

Should you really be surprised?

Think about it. 

If you were to ask your trainer for more strength, a leaner physique, visible abs, and bigger biceps.

Guess what?

Any good personal trainer is going to put weight, and resistance into your program; and not comfort (sugar, pizza, desserts) in your way.

After all, resistance is how we get stronger in the gym and in life.

My message today?

Adversity & resistance are your advantages.

Take the weight God puts in your way and use it to become stronger so that you can create more income, impact, and legacy!

Make it a GREAT week!

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

On October 1, my wife Tatiana and I transferred our last Fit Body Boot Camp location in Mission Viejo, California to our friend and former Fit Body client Melissa.

The main reason was so I could spend even more time leading the Fit Body brand.

Taking a look back at the experience.

Fit Body ownership was a journey we started in November of 2012 with our first location.

At the time, we didn’t know what we were doing.

However, we knew we wanted to fulfill our mission of Inspiring Fitness and Changing Lives Every Day!

Fast forward 12 years, and it’s been quite the ride.

We learned and grew so much with the experience.

Then in 2018, Bedros, Founder of Fit Body, recruited me to lead the brand.

While our ownership chapter has ended, the new chapter of Fit Body’s growth will be unprecedented.

I’m grateful for you to be on this journey with our, Franchise Partners, coaches, and brand. 

Today’s message, I have included my farewell to our clients. 

I hope it inspires you to go after your dreams which is my message today.

As heaven knows, if I can do it.

YOU CAN TOO!

Make it a GREAT week!

[MM]: The World Needs Us Now More Than Ever

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

My brother Barrett, who is my Executive Director of Coaching for Fit Body and I did training in Scottsdale, Arizona a couple of weeks ago.

We were there to deliver for a friend of ours who is a mega social media influencer and entrepreneur.

Just before the training started, I realized I forgot to pack gum so went across the street to the gas station.

I haven’t been to a gas station in a couple of years since getting a Tesla Model 3. 

So I went to grab my gum and then scanned the store for Barrett’s fancy sparkling water. Lol 

For as long as the eye could see, the store was lined with sugar and processed foods. 

No exaggeration here.

That’s right.

The entire store was packed with the ingredients for a major health crisis.

Then it hit me.

In the words of RFK – we need to make America healthy again.

Why?

Chronic disease and obesity are rampant due to processed food and a lack of exercise.

Yes, the work we do here at Fit Body Boot Camp is meaningful.

Lots of people are counting on us.

The good news?

Fit Body’s mission is to Inspire Fitness and Change Lives.

The best part?

My team and I want you to join our mission.

After all, the world needs us now more than ever.

Make it a GREAT week and Happy Thanksgiving!

[MM]: The lesson from Mike Tyson & Jake Paul 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: The lesson from Mike Tyson & Jake Paul

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌 

There was a lot of attention and controversy over the Tyson & Paul fight on Friday.

For starters..

There was a 31-year age gap.

There were critics of the lack of luster fight.

There was a commentary on how dare Jake Paul should enter the ring with an “old man”.

Whatever your take, this is mine.

I give Mike Tyson credit for getting back in the ring.

He trained and looked good for 58 years old.

While there were some glimpses of his former greatness.

The reality is that father time waits for no man.

Tyson while in good shape, couldn’t bridge a 31-year age gap.

The truth is that life happens fast.

It hits hard.

In a blink, it’s gone.

So my message is one of urgency today.

Father time is undefeated.

The time is NOW to pursue your dreams, take that shot, open that business, and go for it.

So what are you waiting for?

After all, Father Time is undefeated.

[MM]: Nobody is coming to save you…

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

I sent the below message to my Fit Body Franchise Partners as their CEO and supporter of small businesses in America to address the global event from last week.

I aimed to provide some of my perspective on the road ahead with a business lesson at the foundation.

Given my role, I owed it to them and trust you will receive value too.

Have a great week!

Family! 🙌

It’s no secret that last week, the United States of America elected Donald Trump to be its 47th Head Policy Maker. 

While I don’t have a crystal ball.

Being your CEO and a Franchisor who’s invested in your business and life success, I want to share with you what I see.

I look to ignore the subjectivity of the Legacy media narrative and the personalities of the candidates. 

Instead, I focus on past data to predict future performance.

With this in mind, his track record, suggests the next 4 years will consist of:

  • Lower inflation 
  • Lower tax rates
  • Fewer regulations
  • Lower interest rates
  • Lower energy costs
  • Increased GDP
  • Increased levels of free speech/feedback culture
  • Higher security
  • Less global conflict

While nothing is guaranteed.

If this happens, these action items will create tailwinds for your business just as the data suggests from his first term.

So yes, I am optimistic that the next 4 years will bring a much better business climate for the US, much of the world, and most importantly you.

However, my message today is not of sunshine and rainbows.

Instead, it’s to deliver the cold hard truth that no one is coming to save you.

No, not Donald Trump, nor would Kamala Harris have saved you.

Neither of them are going to:

  • Come get you out of bed to hold you accountable to your daily workouts
  • Teach you how to lead, market, and sell
  • Focus on your client retention
  • Train up your team
  • Grow your business
  • Pick up your kids from school to ensure they are taken care of
  • Come over for Thanksgiving Dinner to give you a hug or pep talk when you are down 

The reality is that any tailwinds won’t guarantee your success.

Nor will headwinds cement your failure.

While I do believe the business climate will get better which will increase the probability of your prosperity.

The truth is that nobody is coming to save you.

You must save yourself.

And the time isn’t yesterday, tomorrow, next month, or next year.

The time is now.

Onward!

[MM]: Change is the only constant in life. 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: Change is the only constant in life.

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

Change is the only constant in life.

We know this to be true, but human nature still resists. 

Well, let’s prepare ourselves.

More change is coming. 

The US is electing a new President this week. 🇺🇸

And it’s no secret to anyone that the last 4 years have been tough in many ways that have affected small businesses which is the backbone of America. 

We have seen government overspending in record-breaking proportions (otherwise known as inflation), rising interest rates, global conflict, a lack of homeland security, and the list goes on.

Yes, I hope for positive change that will create better tailwinds for us, our country, and humanity.

Ultimately though, that’s not totally up to me or anyone of us. 

However, what is up to us is how we respond, not react to whatever the new changes bring.

And this my friend is my message today.

Don’t resist the change.

Instead, prepare for it, embrace and drive it in whatever way it comes. 

Make it a GREAT week!

[MM]: Change the toilet paper

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

I was out to a sushi with my 2 friends and colleagues last weekend.

We finished a great meal, and just when I was about to leave.

I figured it was a good idea to use the gentleman’s room as I hydrated well and in case I hit traffic.

I walked in and saw the sign on the wall.

It immediately caught my attention and thought of you.

Why?

The simplicity and brilliance were profound.

The truth is that in order to be the change in the world we need.

It starts by doing the little things right.

Here are some examples:

  • Pick up trash.
  • Make your bed.
  • Get your morning workout.
  • Keep the promises you make to yourself when no one is watching.
  • Change the toilet paper.

My message today is that BIG things start small.

So start small, pay it forward, and for goodness’ sake…

Change the toilet paper. 🙂

Make it a GREAT week!

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

Last month I had my good friend Will come to Fit Body Headquarters. 

He’s from the East Coast, moved to California years ago, and is a world-class educator.

Through being a teacher, he realized something alarming.

The education system has good intentions but lacks education around critical thinking. 

This is a big problem!

After all, we humans are tribal.

We are evolutionarily wired to go with the grain as thousands of years ago, being kicked from the tribe meant death.

However, what if the crowd is going in the wrong direction?

The truth is history is filled with countless examples of the herd going the wrong way.

This is why he founded Patterdox.

It’s also why as business owners and leaders in our communities, we must learn to critically think.

So my message today is to bring awareness of this gap and to empower you to learn this important skill of critical thinking.

[MM]: This 1 thing changed the game 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: This 1 thing changed the game

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

I read this quote by Benjamin Frankin during my junior of college.

It stopped me in my tracks at the simplicity but genius of it.

“Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”

I wanted to be healthy, wealthy, and wise so it resonated.

But truth be told.

I didn’t act on it until about 8 years later. 

However, when I did, it changed the game.

In fact, without adopting it, I wouldn’t be writing this email today. 

I wouldn’t have been a business owner, lived abroad, and ascended to become the CEO of an international fitness franchise.

Why?

When you get a jump on the day, you are more productive.

When you are more productive, you become even more productive.

The law of momentum is real.

The trick?

Get to bed by 9pm.

This will create the momentum for you to rise early and dominate your day.

Make it a GREAT and EARLY Week!
