He lives there too — kicking off every day with an intense gym session and fueling up on a nutritional lunch during the workday.

Midgley wakes up bright and early, usually between 4:30 and 5 a.m. And naturally, the fitness franchise CEO starts off his day with a workout. He heads to his basement to exercise for about an hour.
Stretching is a key part of his workout.  The home gym features six cardio machines, stretching mats, and "all your traditional weightlifting equipment," the Crunch Fitness Franchise CEO told Business Insider. "I'm pretty much a standard weight-lifting-and-cardio guy," he said. To start, Midgley uses foam rollers as part of a comprehensive stretching exercise. "I never used to stretch when I was younger," he said. "But I've got to do a full stretching routine every day." Along with cardio, he said that stretching is something he never skips during a workout.
When it comes to exercise, Midgley considers himself a 'balanced guy.'  Midgley said he typically focuses on working out a different body part each day of the week — although sometimes he'll squeeze in two leg days. As for his favorite workout routines, he said he likes to mix things up. "I'm a balanced guy," Midgley said. "I don't favor anything. You've got to work everything."
