Jon Canarick, North Castle Partners, on Curves, Equinox, and GLP-1s in Fitness · 8:00 ↗“Uh, we ended up buying Jenny Craig uh as part of that. And so we actually sort of brought in this we created this combined center trying to bring fitness and diet together under one roof. I'm I'm I'm not embarrassed to tell you it did not work.”
