Chicago Entrepreneur Starts “Overweight-Only” Gym

It’s called “Downsize Fitness.”

The chain wants its members to feel comfortable while exercising, so there are no mirrors inside and the windows are fogged. Even the equipment is designed for heavier people.

…Francis Wisnewski says he started the gym because “I’ve been overweight my whole life, and I was embarrassed to go to the gym myself.”

The first locations opened in Chicago and Las Vegas in 2011, and expanded to Dallas in 2012.
