Hi, I’m Nathan

Founder, Leader, and Culture-First Operator.

As the Founder & CEO of Fitness Cartel, I’ve spent the last decade scaling our brand grounded in three things: community, culture, and brand.

From our first club to now on track to open 20 club across 3 states in 2025, the mission has always been clear. Redefine what a gym can be and create spaces that empower people to thrive.

This site is where you’ll find the vision, the journey, and the opportunity.

Whether you’re a future partner, investor, or someone looking to grow with a purpose-driven brand, I’m stoaked you’re here.
