COMPANYINFORMATION
TRIB3 is a unique boutique boot camp studio offering High
Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) workouts, in industrial luxe
surroundings.
One studio, HIIT classes with three elements (TRI) Treadmills,
Resistance, Intensity, world-class coaches and a luxury shake
bar and retail experience.
The aim is to create a new movement in fitness based around a
community of likeminded discerning consumers who are looking
for something that fuses fitness and leisure with unparalleled
service.
HISTORY
Established in June 2015, TRIB3 currently has 3 sites in the UK,
Sheffield (Ecclesall Road, Kelham Island and Meadowhall) with
negotiations underway for sites across the UK, Europe and
beyond.
TRIB3 has established 3 core models; suburban, urban and
out-of-town in a range of sizes from 250 m2 to 500 m2. This
allows flexibility in the business model from wholly owned,
franchised, licensed and joint ventures creating the potential for
rapid global expansion.
Within twelve months of operating TRIB3 has over 15 live UK
franchise negotiations underway with advanced talks to take the
brand to both Russia and Spain in established fitness markets.
Operating from small (250 m2 to 500 m2) venues with low start
up costs (approx. €150,000 – €350,000) with an expectation of
being able to achieve EBITDA of between €80-150,000 in the
second year, showing between 40-50%ROI with a payback of
less than 3y.

WHATMAKESTRIB3DIFFERENT
TOOTHERBOUTIQUES?
TRIB3 venues are designed by awarding winning Architects CODA
Studios ensuring that every site has the same look, feel and
attention to detail whilst playing on the specific Architectural
features of each unique location to create a family of designs.
The journey through the club has been carefully curated from
the first step on the red carpet through the corridors and
changing facilities, the social space and studios to create a user
experience to stir all the senses. Carefully positioned candles,
dimmed lighting, tactile surfaces and a welcoming team all
ensure the consumer returns again and again.
The social space has the specific aim of forging a strong
community feel and by creating a focal point around the luxury
shake bar this encourages members to hangout both before and
after classes. The regular special event nights further enhance
the power of the group through themed workouts all rewarded
by a glass of Prosecco to cool down.
Attention to detail matters at TRIB3, from the professionally
created music playlists and state of the art sound system to the
lighting and candles that create atmosphere and fragrance.
The changing facilities offer luxury surroundings including
complimentary toiletries – from shampoo and conditioner, to
hair bobbles, sanitary products and GHDs. A luxury towel hire
service is further complimented by the chilled lavender scented
face towels for use after each class. A truly unique experience!
TRIB3 operates mainly as ‘pay-as-you-go.’ However membership
options are available in the ‘Elite’ programme offering an
approach to suit most people.
Online bookings through the website or APP make TRIB3 a
virtually cashless environment making the experience seamless
from start to finish catering for the time poor/cash rich
consumer market.
Being ‘Instagrammable’ is what drives the thought behind the
detail at TRIB3 – will someone want to take a picture and share
it? If not, it’s either not good enough or it’s not needed.
The TRIB3 Journey inspires motivation, provides encouragement
and promotes inclusion. The purpose is to create a feeling of
being part of the movement.
The journey includes:
First Visit: #HIT THEWALL
Hit 7 workouts in 7 days: #STEEL
Hit 50 workouts in 5 months: #WARRIOR
Hit 100 Workouts: #IMMORTAL
Monthly Membership Programme: #ELITE
Community Outreach: #TRIBALGAMES
Analysing the reasons behind why people exercise and why a
programme will work is crucial. TRIB3’s resident psychologist Dr.
Helen Quirk evaluates and assesses each programme, ensuring
they are designed specifically with exercise psychology in mind.
TRIB3 is already recognised as one of the best five workouts
(The Telegraph, April 23rd, 2017)

Store Manager: responsible for the overall management of
the venue including maintenance of standards, sales, social
media, studio and reception.

standards in the reception area, management of bookings,
ensuring meet and greets are professionally carried out

reassurance and introductions for first timer users, closing
sales where necessary. Controlling stock and merchandise.
Bar and Events Manager: responsible for maintaining
standards in the bar area, development and promotion
of new/current shakes, development and promotion of

Coaches: mainly freelance, responsible for delivering
high energy, engaging and tough yet fun TRIB3 classes.

building strong relationships with customers.
Hygiene Assistant: responsible for maintaining the high
standards of cleanliness in the venue.
Our unique culture and position in the wider community has
already proven that TRIB3 attracts the best applicants, many of
whom have sports and fitness backgrounds often to degree
level. This fused with experienced retailers and other customer
facing applicants further enhances the unique retail/fitness/
leisure offer not yet seen in this industry.
The TRIB3 approach to recruitment and training is second to
none – our coaches are expected to take part in a 12-week
intensive training programme before being selected as a TRIB3
Elite Coach. These positions are coveted and competition is high,
making our coaches some of the best in the business!

FACILITIES
TRIB3 can operate in spaces of between 250 m2 to 500 m2. in
urban, suburban and out-of-town locations all of which will
require specific features based on the user demographic and
type.
Full demographic analysis is carried out for each proposed site,
allowing TRIB3 to identify locations that will attract the social
economic group that are vital to success of the venue.
Consideration has to be given to size of studio in comparison
to the locker, shower, changing and bar area provision. Our
in-house design team carefully considers all of this on a project-
by-project basis.

Music
The music in the studio is an essential part of the ‘theatre’ of
TRIB3. Unique playlists are created on a monthly basis complete
with the signature TRIB3 boxing bell between rounds.
We choreograph and synchronize warm up music with soft blue
tones in the lighting through to intense reds and explosive drum
beats in the intensity zone – all this culminating in a soft R&B
close out to Stevie Wonder whilst the consumer stretches and
cools down with our chilled, wet face towels!
The lighting, music and workout programming are all
carefully designed to yet again stir the senses beyond that
of a normalworkout.
MindBody
The operating system is provided by Mind Body allowing TRIB3

TARGETSECTOR
Millennials are the target customer sector for TRIB3. With an
age demographic of 20-50s they make up a quarter of the UK
population and are predicted to hit the 17million mark by 2017.
More millenials than other sectors view fitness as an affordable
luxury and they are driving the social media culture and
promoting the sense of sharing, community and movement that
TRIB3embrace.
‘Group exercisers are 26% less likely to cancel than gym-only
members; there’s something unique about group exercise that
leads to better retention that’s not fully explained by gender,

THECLASS
TRIB3 specialise in ONE class in ONE studio with THREE
variations:
– FullBody
– Upper Body
– Lower Body
This enables the Elite Coaches to totally focus on developing
incomparable sessions that leave customers feeling that they’ve
had an intense, unique world-class workout.
Each class has 3 elements Treadmills, Resistance and Intensity
(T-R-I) – delivered in 45 minutes. Careful consideration has been
given to the structure and design of each session with an aim of
burning up to 1000 calories per class.
The treadmill section is designed to challenge the trainees
aerobically. The aim is to push them hard with every Treadmill
section concluding with trainees hitting near maximum heart
rate in a combination of sprints and hill climbs.
The resistance section is about lifting weights and working
anaerobically. The coaches encourage the trainees to lift
heavier than they would elsewhere while maintaining form and
correcting poor technique.
The intensity zone is about energy. Dynamic plyometric moves
using bodyweight or Kettlebells/Medicine Balls. Stepping away
from the standard burpees and mountain climbers. The best
coaches will deliver new exercises our trainees have never
encountered at other fitness clubs in ways the consumer has
never imagined.
To help customers to track their effort during a class TRIB3 have
partnered with MYZONE.
MYZONE is an innovative heart rate based system that uses
wireless and cloud technology to accurately and conveniently
monitor physical activity. It monitors heart rate, calories and
time exercising that converts into MYZONE Effort Points (MEPs),
with a focus on rewarding effort rather than fitness. Our studios
are fitted with screens that connect to anyone who is wearing
a MYZONE belt and the results are displayed, encouraging
competition and motivation.

BUSINESS PLAN FINANCIAL SUMMARY
41
The financial model is based on a club reaching maturity within
c.18 months of opening and then plateauing out, with costs
arising in a consistent way for different sizes of club.
Due to the way in which memberships and block purchases are
made, a club is expected to become cash-generative on a
monthly basis from the first quarter onwards, assuming that fit-
out costs are all incurred and paid for prior to opening. Although
the initial investment is sizable for each club, it is expected that
the initial investment achieves payback within over Year 2 and
then continues in a cash-generative manner going-forwards,
despite some seasonalmovements
The financial profile of the Joint Ventures is deemed to be
consistent with the wholly owned clubs. The franchise model
offers a lower overall return but instant cash benefit through the
initial franchise fees and subsequent trail. The license fee offers a
recurring income albeit it on much smaller levels compared to
wholly owned clubs.
The model is based on opening a total of 58 clubs, with a mix
of wholly owned (8 Clubs), joint ventured, franchised and
licensedclubs, includes adjustments to reflect the seasonality
of the trade as well as a 10% contingencyon the output.
Despite the fact the cash is normally generated ahead of profit
for an individual club, the level of expansion and investment
required in late 2017/early 2018 leads to a significant cash
requirement of between 700k and 1,000 k euros by 2017 and
2018 but this quickly returns to a cash positive figure within
the following 12 months as the establishedclubsdeliver a
return and the franchises fees generates available cash flow.
The Head Office costs are scaled up to provide a suitable
infrastructure as and when certain levels of clubs come on board.
The timing of certain clubs opening are at the discretion of
management and can therefore, together with the in-built
contingency, provide headroom within the forecasts provided.
