With nearly two decades in the industry, Dave has trained everyone from new moms to Super Bowl MVPs. He shares how he transitioned from an economics major to a personal trainer, the hustle of building his gym from scratch, and the real challenges of entrepreneurship—funding, staffing, and staying true to his vision. We also dive into gym culture, the importance of community, and what it really takes to open a fitness facility.About Dave QuevedoDave is the Owner and Operator of Fit Foundry LLC, an 8000 SQ FT semi-private and large-group training facility located in Uptown Hoboken, NJ.
