Frequently Asked Questions
How much key person coverage does a CrossFit gym typically need?
A common approach is to calculate 12–24 months of gross revenue to cover projected membership losses, replacement coaching costs, and operational disruption if the founding coach were to die or become disabled. Illustrative coverage in the $500K–$1.5M range is common for established affiliates; actual amounts vary by individual circumstances.
Do CrossFit gym co-founders need a buy-sell agreement?
Yes. When two or more coaches own an affiliate together, a funded buy-sell agreement ensures the surviving owner can purchase the deceased partner's interest rather than being forced into a co-ownership arrangement with the estate. Life insurance is the most common funding vehicle for these agreements.
Can a CrossFit gym owner get personal life insurance even with a physically demanding job?
Yes. Being a fitness professional is generally viewed favorably by underwriters because it is associated with an active lifestyle. Personal health history and any documented injuries are the primary underwriting factors, not the fitness profession itself.
