He says the business is only a vehicle to help you live a better life.

1. Fitness Business University Podcast presents "The Ultimate Formula for Your Best Year Ever" as a 2026 annual planning workshop. 2. The host, who runs a private mastermind group, explains that the event is part of membership and also open to outside listeners. 3. The episode asks what a five-hour planning day should do for business, personal life, finances, and marketing. 4. The first section reviews 2025 by asking what went well, what went wrong, and what lessons came from the year. 5. He says people often focus on "all the shitty things," but the process should also surface wins from February, employee hires, and other overlooked moments. 6. He references Dan Sullivan's "win streak" app as a way to ask, "What were your wins today?" 7. He says the review includes business and personal areas so people can pull forward useful patterns. 8. He says the next question is what did not go as planned and uses his own company buyout and sale in the same year as an example. 9. He says that experience taught him lessons that could fill a whole book. 10. He says the workshop also identifies the most important numbers, including revenue and profit, before setting future goals. 11. He says the document he gives attendees includes the specific data points to gather ahead of time. 12. He says the business plan for 2026 uses an EOS one-year structure and should stay simple. 13. He says "complexity is the enemy of execution," and he removed and added material to make the process clearer. 14. He says ChatGPT prompts are new this year and are designed to help attendees define exact goals. 15. He says the workshop then breaks those yearly goals into 90-day goals for Q1. 16. He says the personal section includes a "Mussogee," which means one major event per year, plus health, marriage, family, and life-experience goals. 17. The tone is practical and workshop-oriented, with repeated instructions, examples, and a live-planning format. 18. The delivery is informal and conversational, with direct audience address and references to real events like Pikes Peak and Madison Square Garden. 19. People who want a structured annual planning process for a fitness business will get the most from it. 20. People looking for a polished narrative or a short entertainment segment will probably skip it.
