Bob

Meet Bob! When Bob was 21-years old in Evansville Indiana the gym he went to closed. The only other gym in town was far from Bob’s neighbourhood and he knew a gym could succeed near his home. With an entrepreneurial spirit, a passion for fitness, & help from his family he opened his own. It started as mostly homemade equipment in a 5000 sq. ft pole barn but, over the years, grew to be four traditional gyms and the first CrossFIT in town. Through bringing teams to CrossFIT competitions an idea formed of how to use the CrossFIT games lane layout as a circuit gym. His dream was to bring the best of CrossFit, HIIT, group classes, and individual training together… the Seven Minutes concept was born.

JP

Meet JP! JP has always had a love for sports and fitness. Following three outstanding seasons at the University of Tennessee, JP played six MLB seasons, appearing in 467 career games with the Blue Jays, Texas Rangers, and Tampa Bay Rays. When he moved to Nashville he was on the hunt for a gym that challenged him the way being an athlete did. He came across Seven Minutes and was hooked. The combination of high-intensity interval training, heavy lifting, and being able to go anytime sparked his desire and passion to become an owner of Seven Minutes.
