Personal trainer Gavin Townsend took a gamble as Britain headed into lockdown that making and designing his own range of gym equipment would pay his bills - and get him out of the £40,000 debt that he had accumulated.
The gamble paid off for the 34-year-old and his business, Gymbeing, is now set to deliver much more than that, turning over £1million this year
Gavin says he has shifted over a million kilos of weights since the spring and generated a profit of £150,000, which he is reinvesting in marketing, expansion and a new range of clothing gear for 2021.
