Strickland began his career as a personal trainer and club salesman in 1976 while attending Clemson University. By 24, Strickland bought his first health club, quickly followed by a second location. Strickland’s success as a multi-club owner led to a decade-long development partnership with industry leader Health & Tennis Corporation of America (HTCA), where Steve expanded the HTCA brand within the Atlanta, Chicago and Dallas markets. In the early ‘90s, Strickland perfected his club layout and design expertise as the Southeastern Regional Sales Manager for industry giant Nautilus.

Strickland’s years of experience in all areas of health club design, sales and operations have led to his ongoing success in the development and growth of the WORKOUT ANYTIME FRANCHISE model, which Steve founded in 1999 with fellow fitness veteran John Quattrocchi. Over the past 20 years, he and John have led an excellent network of franchisees who join them in expanding their brand of top-quality fitness facilities focused on member experience and value.

Steve’s leadership has led to his being awarded the fitness industry’s prestigious “Distinguished Service Award” by the National Fitness Trade Journal in recognition of his contributions to the fitness industry. In 2022, Steve was also named one of the “Top 175 Global Franchise Influencers.”
