💦 “The Fitness Pod” — Our 3 Best Fitness & Apparel Stories

Since it’s Spring Break (or you may just need a break from the insane news cycle), we whipped up 3 of our best pop-biz stories on the fitness industry from the last year:


#1. Barry’s Bootcamp tries to sell itself for $700M… Because nothing drives cash flow like a cult.


#2. Vuori is eating Lululemon’s leggings… And it’s now worth twice as much as Under Armour.


#3. Nike’s stock had its worst day in over 20 years… but Nike’s pain is Adidas’ gain.


Share this episode with your spotter, your trainer, or your buddy who’s decked out in head-to-toe Alo in Cabo (even though they’re just grabbing coffee).


We’ll be back with our usual daily show on Monday… just gotta hit the showers first.
