Two-Brain Radio: Buying a Dying Gym With Bo BuserBo Buser figured it would take a few years of coaching and networking after graduating from business school before he'd be able to open his own CrossFit gym—so when he got the opportunity to buy one just three months after graduation, he eagerly took the plunge.
