This week John sits down with two of his favorite business partners, Austin Cohen and Justin Turetsky of FlexIt for a conversation about their business relationship, the fast moving history of the company, and the power of flexible and accessible fitness for everyone.
Austin is the Founder & CEO of FlexIt, a company that aims to provide flexible and empowering fitness experiences for consumers and businesses worldwide. He has a background in strategy, business development, finance, capital raising, and has previously worked as a Partner and Chief of Staff at Wheels Up.
Justin is the COO and has experience in company growth and expansion, finance, and risk management. He has worked with various startups, ranging from engineering services to FinTech. Justin is also a fitness enthusiast and former competitive ice hockey player who loves making fitness more accessible and convenient for everyone. Both Austin and Justin are Columbia University graduates who are actively involved in the university's entrepreneurship center. Together, they are dedicated to making fitness more flexible and accessible for people all over the world.
This is a great episode for anyone looking to gain insights and strategy from a pair of entrepreneurial thinkers who are both experienced and successful in their field. Austin and Justin unpack how FlexIt’s technology and infrastructure allows them to connect customers with the best trainers and fitness coaches from around the country creating a system of accountability and consistency for your workout routine. They explain how FlexIt was born out of the pandemic due to the need for remote trainers and workouts. However the evolution of FlexIt did not stop with remote training sessions, they are continuing to evolve into an ecosystem of customizable telehealth, weight loss consultation, nutrition coaches, and holistic health providers.
As the world continues to become more interconnected through technology and digital circles, Austin and Justin believe that improving your health and fitness through FlexIt’s platform will prove to be more convenient, more affordable, and more personal than conventional gym memberships and fitness classes. As the old paradigms of taxis, cable tv, and brick & mortar retail continue to give way for ride sharing, streaming and e-commerce, FlexIt is poised to be the next disrupter in the rapidly growing market of home fitness and health.
