After he and his wife spent six months as traveling trainers while still relying on unemployment resources and living in a FEMA trailer, they began what is now a fitness franchise. Most recently with the rest of the industry Travis has overcome the obstacles of the pandemic by redesigning his business by leveraging off the pandemic as an opportunity permitting the return to business better than normal.
