SBA loans are one of the most common ways gym owners finance a build-out or acquisition. They're also one of the most misunderstood.

The terms look attractive on paper. The reality of the process — personal guarantees, collateral requirements, timeline, and the paperwork involved — is a different conversation.

In this clip from a conversation with our client Resistance Strength , we get into the SBA loan decision, what the process actually looked like, and whether they'd do it the same way again.

For owners weighing SBA versus conventional financing or a cash build, the honest answer from someone on the other side of it is worth more than any lender pitch deck.

The one-page term sheet you and the landlord sign before drafting a lease.
It locks in the key deal points:

Base rent and annual escalations
Term length and renewal options
Free rent (abatement)
TIA (tenant improvement allowance)
Operating expenses (NNN)
Exclusive use clause
Personal guarantee
Permitted use and delivery condition

Non-binding, but not optional.

90% of the real negotiation happens here. Once the LOI is signed, the lease almost always follows it — word for word.

Most operators treat the LOI like a formality. That's the mistake.

Every lever worth pulling — rent, abatement, TIA, guarantees — is easier to win at the LOI stage than after the lawyers get involved.

Push hard here. Get quiet later.

"We're not building gyms. We're building environments." This quote from Kollective .inc says it all.

Go beyond the training floor, the equipment, the lighting package, and murals.

What makes an incredible gym is more about the art of creating spaces that people want to convene in, than it is about the equipment line you selected.

Kollective does it better than most. With flagship locations in Austin, TX and the addition of Nashville, TN - this brand is just getting started.

Photos of the Sandow Institute — one of the first high-end gym chains (1897–1925).

Founded by Eugen Sandow, these weren’t just gyms — they were luxury fitness experiences long before modern clubs existed.

Think private training cubicles, personalized programs, consultation rooms, and even progress photo studios. The flagship location in London had three floors, multiple training halls, and dedicated spaces for women — unheard of at the time.

Members trained with dumbbells, pulley systems, and specialized equipment — all based on custom programs tailored to their goals, injuries, and lifestyle. It was one of the earliest examples of structured, coach-led fitness rather than just “access to equipment.”

Sandow built a nationwide brand by 1905… but a mix of controversy, malpractice issues, and world events led to its collapse.

High-end fitness isn’t new. It’s just evolved.

Construction costs are where a lot of open gym build-outs go sideways.

Owners budget for the obvious stuff — flooring, equipment, paint — and forget the line items that actually move the number. HVAC, electrical capacity, ADA compliance, and permitting timelines that quietly burn months of pre-revenue rent.

In this clip from a conversation with our client Resistance Strength , we break down what the build-out actually cost and where the real money went.

The construction budget you start with and the one you finish with are rarely the same number. Knowing that going in changes how you negotiate the lease, the TI package, and the timeline.

Every buildout budget splits into two buckets. Lenders, landlords, and your TIA all care which is which.

Hard Costs:
The physical build — materials and labor. Framing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, flooring, paint, millwork.

Soft Costs:
Everything else it takes to get built — architect and engineering fees, permits, surveys, legal, project management, insurance.

Here's where money gets left on the table:

Most TIAs only reimburse hard costs. Soft costs get treated like an afterthought — and they're often 15–25% of the total.

Push for soft costs to be included. Or push the base TIA high enough to cover both.

A TIA that only covers hard costs isn't a full TIA. It's a partial one dressed up to look complete.

Two of our favorite fitness entrepreneurs, .samtooley and are at it again with a new concept -

It's not often that founders think to take the time to document the process from the start, but if you follow , you'll see that they have been walking us through the process since the jump.

Nothing better than seeing someone take something old, and make it new again.
