  Tom Jackobs: Fredrick, welcome to the show.
• 1:08
  Fredrick Hahn: Tom, thank you very much.
• 1:09
  Fredrick Hahn: I really appreciate you asking me to, participate.
• 1:12
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah, absolutely, and I'm really excited every time I have somebody involved in the fitness industry, because that's where I came out of, I always love to, uh, chat with you guys and reminisce of the old days running fitness business, which I would not go back to, but anyway, but anyway.
• 1:30
  Tom Jackobs: I always like to ask the first question.
• 1:32
  Tom Jackobs: What's your definition of a heart-led business?
• 1:36
  Fredrick Hahn: I have been doing this for, I can't even tell you how many years, in the neighborhood of 30, 35 years.
• 1:44
  Fredrick Hahn: The one beautiful thing about what I do and people like me do is we are literally taking someone's health, someone's body, their strength, their, and even in, in many ways their, spirit.
• 1:58
  Fredrick Hahn: Because when you feel stronger, when you feel healthier, you just feel better about yourself.
• 2:04
  Fredrick Hahn: And our program, uh, is focused on, uh, what I like to call positive tissue remodeling.
• 2:12
  Fredrick Hahn: So in other words, we're building muscle, we're building bone, we're built, we're decreasing body fat, improving mitochondria.
• 2:19
  Fredrick Hahn: We're literally, my daughter years ago said when she was little, Hey dad, what is it that you do for a living?
• 2:25
  Fredrick Hahn: And I said, well, I take people's muscles and I make them pulse a little bit more strongly.
• 2:32
  Fredrick Hahn: So they can do anything they want in their life better.
• 2:37
  Fredrick Hahn: When I see, for example, we had a client, uh, still do, um, I won't name his name of course, but he, uh, had a, a type of neurological disease.
• 2:46
  Fredrick Hahn: It wasn't Parkinson's or, or Parkinson's syndrome.
• 2:48
  Fredrick Hahn: It was another type of, neurological disease.
• 2:52
  Fredrick Hahn: He could not come to the studio by himself.
• 2:54
  Fredrick Hahn: His wife had to take him here.
• 2:56
  Fredrick Hahn: We had to help him down the stairs.
• 2:57
  Fredrick Hahn: He needed a walker to go from machine to machine.
• 3:00
  Fredrick Hahn: Within three months, he was coming to the gym, only coming to us once or twice a week for 30 minutes a session.
• 3:06
  Fredrick Hahn: He was coming to us by himself, coming down the steps by himself.
• 3:10
  Fredrick Hahn: He was able to get, he still struggled, but he was able to get into the machines by himself and we greatly improved his, muscle mass which allowed him to function better, which allowed him to go to the movies, which allowed him to live.
• 3:25
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 3:26
  Fredrick Hahn: But we do that for every person on a lesser scale, let's say.
• 3:31
  Fredrick Hahn: So it, it might not be quite as dramatic as what happened to this particular client, but once you hit about the age 35, 40, you slowly begin to lose strength, muscle tissue, bone density, and the only way that can be halted and reversed, and it can be is through proper strength training.
• 3:51
  Fredrick Hahn: And of course, uh, eating a healthful diet.
• 3:54
  Fredrick Hahn: So for me, every single day I go to work, all I'm doing is making every single person who comes through that door and leaves a little bit better.
• 4:03
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah, and, and you, you can tell too, just from the way that you were describing that, just how much passion that you have around helping, your, your clients and what a dramatic, uh, improvement for that client and yeah, I mean that's, what drove me when I was in the fitness industry as well, is seeing those dramatic results and people just, every aspect of their life getting better.
• 4:28
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah,
• 4:28
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 4:29
  Fredrick Hahn: And that's the focus.
• 4:30
  Fredrick Hahn: Whereas maybe in something like, um a CrossFit, a residual outcome is that you become stronger.
• 4:39
  Fredrick Hahn: But the process is not about that.
• 4:41
  Fredrick Hahn: The process is about getting your PRs and how much weight can you lift, and how many pull-ups can you do, and can I do more than she's doing that's what we do.
• 4:50
  Fredrick Hahn: It has nothing to do with that whatsoever.
• 4:53
  Fredrick Hahn: It's not about who's better than who.
• 4:55
  Fredrick Hahn: It's simply about how can that individual become a healthier, stronger individual so that that individual can have a more, fruitful.
• 5:06
  Fredrick Hahn: And, beneficial life.
• 5:09
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 5:10
  Tom Jackobs: Now take us back to, when you first started the business, what was that like for you and, and why, did you start it in the first place?
• 5:18
  Fredrick Hahn: The true reason is years ago.
• 5:20
  Fredrick Hahn: We're talking 40 years ago.
• 5:22
  Fredrick Hahn: I actually was in the theater.
• 5:23
  Fredrick Hahn: I was an actor and I hated waiting tables, but I was always into martial arts, into fitness, and all that.
• 5:29
  Fredrick Hahn: Personal training was in its infancy in the early eighties.
• 5:32
  Fredrick Hahn: And, this is when Nautilus came out, Arthur Jones and Ellington Darden and high intensity training and all that came out.
• 5:39
  Fredrick Hahn: So I decided that rather than wait tables, maybe I could work as a trainer or be on the gym floor.
• 5:45
  Fredrick Hahn: So I got a job on the gym floor at the New York Health and Racquet Club.
• 5:49
  Fredrick Hahn: I was sort of like a proctor.
• 5:51
  Fredrick Hahn: I'd go around and say, uh, slow down, or your seat's not correct, or, uh, you try one more, like whatever it is.
• 5:59
  Fredrick Hahn: I said, and I really enjoy that.
• 6:01
  Fredrick Hahn: I really enjoyed helping people.
• 6:03
  Fredrick Hahn: And then I got hired, I started dating a physical therapist and I got hired by the hospital for Joint Diseases Sports Medicine Center.
• 6:10
  Fredrick Hahn: And I was then like a
• 6:12
  Tom Jackobs: Oh.
• 6:12
  Fredrick Hahn: I functioned as a, a PTA, a physical therapy aide.
• 6:16
  Fredrick Hahn: I was not a physical therapy aide, but I functioned like one.
• 6:20
  Fredrick Hahn: So I was incharge of all strengthening for all of the patients.
• 6:24
  Fredrick Hahn: And what I was doing with them was what I do now.
• 6:29
  Fredrick Hahn: Very slow, very controlled, very safe, but very effective strength training programs to improve wherever part of their body was needed improvement.
• 6:38
  Fredrick Hahn: The head of orthopedic surgery at the time called me into his office and said, I've never seen my patients get this strong.
• 6:44
  Fredrick Hahn: What are you doing with them?
• 6:46
  Fredrick Hahn: And I told him, and I started to train him and one thing led to another.
• 6:51
  Fredrick Hahn: A year and a half later, he and I went into business.
• 6:53
  Fredrick Hahn: So we opened up a company called Metro SportsMed, and it was a physical therapy clinic at New York Methodist Hospital in Brooklyn.
• 7:01
  Fredrick Hahn: Where, you know, you'd go skiing, you'd break your knee doctor, fixes your knee, and then you'd go to physical therapy.
• 7:07
  Fredrick Hahn: But at our physical therapy clinic, we didn't just fix your knee.
• 7:10
  Fredrick Hahn: We would strengthen your neck, your back, and your knee, your whole body in half the time.
• 7:18
  Fredrick Hahn: It took traditional physical therapists just to strengthen your knee.
• 7:23
  Fredrick Hahn: And we were hoping that this would of course, flood the insurance companies and everybody would, all the insurance companies would wanna send their patients, their clients to us.
• 7:35
  Fredrick Hahn: And then we'd learn the hard way that insurance companies could care less.
• 7:39
  Fredrick Hahn: They don't care about you, they don't care about anything.
• 7:43
  Fredrick Hahn: They just care about how can we not pay.
• 7:47
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah, so I, I couldn't do that anymore.
• 7:49
  Fredrick Hahn: So then I opened up my own facility in 1998, here, the one I'm sitting in now in 1998, uh, on the upper West side of Manhattan.
• 7:57
  Fredrick Hahn: And that's sort of how it all, all started.
• 8:00
  Tom Jackobs: Nice.
• 8:01
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah.
• 8:01
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 8:02
  Tom Jackobs: So when you first started that business, what type of business education had you had up until that point?
• 8:08
  Fredrick Hahn: Zero.
• 8:11
  Tom Jackobs: Exactly.
• 8:12
  Tom Jackobs: Great.
• 8:12
  Fredrick Hahn: My father was an entrepreneur.
• 8:15
  Fredrick Hahn: He had a series of high fidelity record shops.
• 8:19
  Fredrick Hahn: Five of them.
• 8:20
  Fredrick Hahn: I was in high school like 16, 17, 18 years old.
• 8:22
  Fredrick Hahn: So I kind of watched the way he opened up one store, then opened up another store, and how he hired people and the way he treated people and how he made that all happen.
• 8:32
  Fredrick Hahn: So, but I have no formal education.
• 8:35
  Fredrick Hahn: I do not have an MBA, I do not have a degree.
• 8:37
  Fredrick Hahn: In marketing or advertising or businesses of, of any kind.
• 8:41
  Fredrick Hahn: I knew what I wanted, I knew what I wanted to do.
• 8:44
  Fredrick Hahn: I read a lot of books, so
• 8:47
  Tom Jackobs: Mm-hmm.
• 8:47
  Fredrick Hahn: and that's pretty much how I did it.
• 8:48
  Tom Jackobs: Let's kinda shift gears to the kinda the business side of the business.
• 8:52
  Tom Jackobs: So how were those first years in terms of, you know, figuring out finances and making a profit and doing all that without, you know, the background to know all that.
• 9:05
  Tom Jackobs: What was that like for you?
• 9:06
  Fredrick Hahn: Well, I did read, a bunch of books on, what's the first one I read, like jumpstart your business brain, jumpstart your marketing brain.
• 9:15
  Fredrick Hahn: I read the books Good to Great Built To Last by Jim Collins.
• 9:19
  Fredrick Hahn: Essentially I learned that, first things first.
• 9:22
  Fredrick Hahn: If you wanna do a start a business, you have to do a PNL.
• 9:26
  Fredrick Hahn: You have to do a profit and loss.
• 9:28
  Fredrick Hahn: What is it gonna cost me?
• 9:29
  Fredrick Hahn: How much do I have to charge?
• 9:32
  Fredrick Hahn: And what will my net profit or loss be?
• 9:36
  Fredrick Hahn: And a lot, I think a lot of times people start businesses with this great idea.
• 9:40
  Fredrick Hahn: They love what they do, they have a passion, but they don't actually take a pencil and put it to paper and go, oh, wait a minute.
• 9:46
  Fredrick Hahn: I'd have to charge$500 for a personal training session.
• 9:50
  Fredrick Hahn: Ain't ever gonna happen.
• 9:52
  Fredrick Hahn: This business model doesn't work.
• 9:54
  Fredrick Hahn: So when I did the numbers and the math, it all looked possible because I had been running the physical therapy clinic at New York Methodist Hospital, and I saw what numbers needed to be a little, a little different.
• 10:06
  Fredrick Hahn: 'cause that was a medical facility, but, but basically it's the same.
• 10:09
  Tom Jackobs: Sure.
• 10:09
  Fredrick Hahn: So,
• 10:10
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah
• 10:10
  Fredrick Hahn: when I realized that it was financially viable, then little by little, in reading more, and actually looking at friends of mine who were also successful, asking them questions.
• 10:20
  Fredrick Hahn: And I'm not even saying I do everything exactly right or correctly.
• 10:24
  Fredrick Hahn: I'm sure there are things that I should be doing, could be doing better, there's no question.
• 10:30
  Fredrick Hahn: I've actually started a franchise and I'm beginning that right now to franchise this system.
• 10:35
  Fredrick Hahn: Anybody who wants to start a business, the passion has to be there.
• 10:39
  Fredrick Hahn: The love for it has to be there.
• 10:40
  Fredrick Hahn: You have to wake up in the morning with a burning desire to do that thing if you don't wake up in the morning with a burning desire to do that thing.
• 10:50
  Fredrick Hahn: Do something else.
• 10:53
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 10:54
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah.
• 10:55
  Tom Jackobs: Now, does it need to be every day that you have that burning desire or do you get a few days that you don't wanna work?
• 11:02
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah.
• 11:02
  Fredrick Hahn: Well, maybe after, maybe the day after a martini, no.
• 11:09
  Fredrick Hahn: But, when come to work, I will say every day when I come to work, I look forward to the clients.
• 11:15
  Fredrick Hahn: I look forward to talking to them.
• 11:16
  Fredrick Hahn: I look forward to the discussion, making them stronger, asking'em how they feel, hearing their stories.
• 11:23
  Fredrick Hahn: Like, Hey Fred, I just went skiing last weekend and I was able to ski all day.
• 11:27
  Fredrick Hahn: I could never do that before, it pumps you up.
• 11:29
  Fredrick Hahn: And not a day goes by, really, honestly, not a day goes by where I don't hear something like that from a client or two.
• 11:39
  Fredrick Hahn: So it's, it's very uplifting.
• 11:40
  Fredrick Hahn: You know, and the other thing is you're not harming the environment.
• 11:43
  Fredrick Hahn: You're not harming anything or anyone.
• 11:46
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah.
• 11:46
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah.
• 11:47
  Fredrick Hahn: It's a true service to other humans, which is so, so great and gives you so much pleasure and fuels that passion as well.
• 11:59
  Fredrick Hahn: Were you always heart-led when it came to the business, even before you started the business and when you were working for the hospital?
• 12:06
  Fredrick Hahn: Did it feel heart-led at that point?
• 12:09
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah.
• 12:10
  Fredrick Hahn: I would say that when I started out, when I wanted to be an actor, one of the things about being actors, making other people feel things.
• 12:18
  Fredrick Hahn: Um, whether it's fear or whether it's joy or whether it's, you know, laughter, whatever it is.
• 12:24
  Fredrick Hahn: So you're very, very interested in, you know, serving the playwright or whoever wrote the script and then presenting that to an audience and, and getting that audience to feel and think and feel things.
• 12:35
  Fredrick Hahn: So I've always had a desire to do that, um, and seeing the tremendous benefit.
• 12:43
  Fredrick Hahn: That strength training gives if you do it right, and the fact that the way we do it, the very slow, almost like a Tai Chi approach to strength training, no one ever gets hurt.
• 12:54
  Fredrick Hahn: Everybody just walks out feeling exhilarated getting stronger and feeling better about everything they do in life.
• 13:00
  Fredrick Hahn: So I would say from a very early age, I've always kind of, yeah, my type is I would always felt like helping people.
• 13:08
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 13:09
  Tom Jackobs: That's cool.
• 13:09
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah, the passion then, uh, for having your own business and helping people has definitely propelled you.
• 13:16
  Tom Jackobs: And you said the business itself has been 35 years?
• 13:20
  Fredrick Hahn: I opened up this facility in 1998, so about 28 years, almost 30.
• 13:25
  Fredrick Hahn: In Montclair, I opened that in 2015, so that's 10 years strong this November.
• 13:33
  Tom Jackobs: Wow.
• 13:34
  Fredrick Hahn: As I'm getting older, I can't keep opening up gyms all over the place.
• 13:38
  Fredrick Hahn: So, the franchise model seemed very, doable and possible.
• 13:44
  Fredrick Hahn: I'm going to try to spread this type of benefit as far as I can.
• 13:51
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 13:51
  Tom Jackobs: Oh, that's cool.
• 13:52
  Tom Jackobs: And, as you were saying that, it is kind of popped into my mind as well, is that when you do franchising and, and you're expanding, how do you plan on keeping the heart as part of the business so that that doesn't get lost when other business owners, you know, have a stake in it?
• 14:12
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah.
• 14:13
  Fredrick Hahn: It's called vetting.
• 14:15
  Fredrick Hahn: I have a friend of mine.
• 14:16
  Fredrick Hahn: His name is Luke Carlson and he's the owner, CEO of Discover Strength.
• 14:22
  Fredrick Hahn: Good friend of mine, amazing business owner, businessman.
• 14:26
  Fredrick Hahn: I've learned a lot from him about building a business, and expanding a franchise.
• 14:31
  Fredrick Hahn: And one of the things he said to me was, Fred, you have to be very, very strict about who you vet out never, ever, ever sell.
• 14:41
  Fredrick Hahn: Like if Jeff Bezos came up to me and said, Hey, Fred, uh, let, let me buy the rights to the East Coast, you know that Jeff could care less about exercise.
• 14:50
  Fredrick Hahn: He could care less about any of that stuff.
• 14:53
  Fredrick Hahn: Your answer to Jeff Bezos would be no, even though you'd have$40 million in your bank tomorrow.
• 15:00
  Fredrick Hahn: So you have to make sure that the person that you actually, award, let's say a franchise to that that person has that drive, that passion, that desire, for your industry, for what you are doing.
• 15:13
  Fredrick Hahn: Meaning help him know, making people stronger and healthier.
• 15:16
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah.
• 15:18
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 15:18
  Tom Jackobs: And bringing the brand into it as well so that the brand doesn't, deteriorate over time or with, you know, bad levels, so to speak.
• 15:25
  Fredrick Hahn: And that's all part of your operations manual and making sure that, you know, once you develop a team, I mean, eventually, on my 10th franchise, let's say, I'm not gonna be able to go to every single franchise myself.
• 15:35
  Fredrick Hahn: You're gonna have to have, regional managers or vice presidents or whatever the title is, who show up unannounced and have a checklist of 20 things that they must see happen.
• 15:48
  Fredrick Hahn: Then if not, then they go up to the franchisee and they say, Hey, what's going on?
• 15:53
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 15:54
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah,
• 15:55
  Tom Jackobs: Have a little conversation.
• 15:58
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah,
• 15:58
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 15:58
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 15:59
  Tom Jackobs: That's cool.
• 16:00
  Tom Jackobs: That, that's very exciting.
• 16:02
  Tom Jackobs: I'm sure it'll take quite a bit of work, to put all that together.
• 16:05
  Fredrick Hahn: It's already been two years at it.
• 16:07
  Fredrick Hahn: I've been working out for two and a half years, and I'm in no rush.
• 16:09
  Fredrick Hahn: I wanna do it right.
• 16:11
  Fredrick Hahn: I wanna make sure that I have everything in order so that the potential franchisee that gung-ho passionate franchisee has all their ducks in a row and really can sink his teeth into,'cause it becomes their business's.
• 16:27
  Fredrick Hahn: No longer my business, my rules, but it becomes their business and they really have to, they have to shine, you know?
• 16:34
  Fredrick Hahn: Yeah.
• 16:35
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
• 16:36
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah, exactly.
• 16:37
  Tom Jackobs: And it's nice, you know, having the franchise, you know, everything kinda in a box for people having that system.
• 16:44
  Tom Jackobs: So that's very cool.
• 16:45
  Tom Jackobs: So along the way, as you were building your business over the last 20, 28 years, which is just incredible too, by the way, Fredrick, so congratulations.
• 16:56
  Fredrick Hahn: It's like, where did that time go?
• 16:57
  Tom Jackobs: Yes.
• 16:58
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah, I know exactly.
• 17:01
  Tom Jackobs: Have there been any really pleasant surprises that have happened because you were heart-led versus just looking for the profit?
• 17:09
  Fredrick Hahn: Well, the truth is, I never looked for the profit and the other truth is personal training, as far as I'm aware, is not a very high profit, business model.
• 17:22
  Fredrick Hahn: I mean I'm 63 years old and I live paycheck to paycheck.
• 17:27
  Fredrick Hahn: I don't have a house in Malibu.
• 17:29
  Fredrick Hahn: And you know, this is not a high, it's not coca-cola.
• 17:32
  Fredrick Hahn: You don't make a lot of profit.
• 17:34
  Fredrick Hahn: You live well.
• 17:34
  Fredrick Hahn: But the focus is really on the passion for what you do and helping people become stronger and healthier.
• 17:41
  Fredrick Hahn: And as I mentioned before.
• 17:42
  Fredrick Hahn: It's sort of like that movie, field of dreams.
• 17:45
  Fredrick Hahn: If you build it, they will come.
• 17:48
  Tom Jackobs: On the flip side of that same, same question, different side of the coin, what kind of train wrecks have happened because you were a heart-led or you know, the decisions that you've had to make that were difficult to make because, you know, it was either I go the profit side or I go the heart side, but it's those type of stories.
• 18:12
  Tom Jackobs: Any of those.
• 18:13
  Fredrick Hahn: Not really.
• 18:14
  Fredrick Hahn: I mean, I would say that, you'll always get a client or two or three as the years go by who are disgruntled and unhappy and this isn't working for me, and or they disagree with your theory.
• 18:28
  Fredrick Hahn: Those kinds of things do occur and sometimes people just are not willing to listen or they just hear what's going on in their head.
• 18:37
  Fredrick Hahn: I've had to sometimes say to some clients over the years, I don't think this is for you.
• 18:43
  Fredrick Hahn: I think you may need to look for something else.
• 18:46
  Fredrick Hahn: Because I really only want people here who get it, are passionate about it, are interested in actually achieving, improving themselves.
• 18:57
  Fredrick Hahn: One thing also I will say is there are a lot of people who do what I do and they do group training.
• 19:03
  Fredrick Hahn: Now I am against group training and I'm against group training because if I'm training three people and two people are doing something that's dangerous, who do I go to first.
• 19:16
  Tom Jackobs: Right, exactly.
• 19:17
  Tom Jackobs: The one closest to you probably.
• 19:19
  Fredrick Hahn: You know?
• 19:20
  Fredrick Hahn: So with us, we specialize in the highest quality, one-to-one instruction.
• 19:26
  Fredrick Hahn: So when we are in the gym, training your instructor, never ever takes his or her eyes off of you.
• 19:34
  Fredrick Hahn: We're watching your breathing.
• 19:35
  Fredrick Hahn: We're watching your shoulder movement, we're watching everything.
• 19:39
  Fredrick Hahn: So there's no way in heaven or heck that you can get injured or do it incorrectly.
• 19:45
  Fredrick Hahn: So people say, oh, Fred, you know, but if you did group training, you'd double the money.
• 19:49
  Fredrick Hahn: It's like, probably.
• 19:50
  Tom Jackobs: Yeah.
