What a stupid business decision to open a nutrition store. This isn’t 1992

Online has put most out of business. This must be a front for selling roids

A lot of them sell those teas/shakes. Also most have prices similar to what you find online these days so if you need something today it’s not a bad option. Margins are super low for them on this though I would think.

Yeah I got to know the owner of my local GNC And he said it was so competitive now. He would try to get close to Amazon and bodybuilding.com by offering me 20% off but still wasn’t cheaper

And then Amazon started carrying GNC products. He went OOB a year later

Tough business. Most are selling other products and getting into CBD or roids

The BAW is his initials. He is a really good guy and she is a cool person.

Really surprised he did this as he quit as an operator and opened it up in a non populated area. But if that's his dream....more power to him.

Look, I’m not going to make any more comments about it but the bodybuilding look isn’t for me. Maybe it’s because I’m a skinny guy or maybe I’m a skinny guy because I hate that look. I don’t know.

I hope they’re happy and successsful.

Dreams don't pay bills and GNC has been struggling for years. Not sure what he plans to do differently to be profitable.

I will cut them a break in the fact that competition photos rarely show what a person looks like normally. They’ve probably cut 10% of their body weight, are super dehydrated and have fake tanner on.

I’m sure if you saw them sitting at a restaurant it look like a pretty normal couple

Most of the brands sold at these types of stores don’t make it to the shelves of GNC. He’s clearly into the show scene, and plenty of competitors would rather get their supplements locally than through Amazon if they know this guy.

Those are MLMs, just so you know. Herbalife.

There's a big documentary on it. Can't believe it has exploded again after being nearly dead after the documentary exposed what it really is.

To be fair, no one knows this person yet they are hating on the way she looks which takes a ton of hard work and discipline regardless of whether you dig the look or not.
