Tony Doherty has built up his Doherty’s Gym brand from nothing but a kid with a dream, into the global empire that it is today.
Tony is so much to so many people – a partner, a motivator, a trainer, a businessman, an entrepreneur, an emcee, television presenter and promoter.
He is the face of what it means to be resilient, and after facing and conquering years of challenges, COVID was just another thrown in his way to overcome.
He unpacks his journey with Andrew, talks gym closures, event cancellations, financial impacts, being a spokesperson for the fitness industry in the push to get gyms re-opened, mental health, key learnings, what’s in store for 2021, and much more!
