During the past 12 months, Dail has been a partner in opening more Gold’s Gym locations in the U.S. than any other franchisee. Dail and his business partners have successfully overcome harsh economic conditions to open five new clubs in Virginia and Wisconsin, bringing the total number of locations he owns and operates to 12, with plans already in place to open 10 to 15 additional gyms within the next one to two years.
