<p>Joey: I'm in Aurora, Illinois. And if you want to get a good workout in, sometimes you don't want to go to a big box gym. That's why QT3 Systems and the owner, Quint, created a feeling of being at home, working out in your basement, your garage, group personal training, private training, nutrition, coaching, weight loss, anything that you need in the comfort of something that feels like it could be in your own home. Let's check it out and Quint is going to beat me up. Let's go. What's up, man?</p>
<p>Quint: How are you doing Joey? Nice to meet you, man.</p>
<p>Joey: Thanks for having me. What a way QT3 Sys, what is QT3, man? In Aurora.</p>
<p>Quint: That's a good question, man. QT3 Systems in Aurora. I like to build it. It's been building as more of a staple for people to come enjoy themselves, but also learn how to get fit, learn how to exercise and learn how to take care of their bodies and live a happier and healthier more lifestyle. That's what we're trying to create here.</p>
<p>Joey: Okay. I mean, and that you nailed it there, taking care of their bodies and every body is different, right?</p>
<p>Quint: Every body is different, even everybody's mindset is different when they come in. So I've had to learn how to, over the years, not take it so personal when people don't do what I ask them to do, right? So you can't control everybody and what they do, but we try to give everybody an equal opportunity to understand what it is that we do and how to take advantage of some of the stuff that we're offering to them.</p>
<p>Joey: That's amazing. And I like that your facility is... It's a good space, but it's small and just gives this almost... It feels like home when you walk into it.</p>
<p>Quint: Yeah, it does. I'm glad you alluded to that because what happened was, I used to work for this company. It was a kind of upscale, private gym, if you will. And I used to... We had over 3000 members there and I asked myself, I'm like, "If I could own my own space? What would that space look like?" So instead of me trying to create something for myself, I used to ask every client that came through there, "Hey, how do you like working out? If you had your own opportunity to be in a space, what would it look like?" And so we took all of those concepts of everybody's thoughts and tried to package it up together. And this is what we came up with.</p>
<p>Joey: That's great. And we're in Aurora. Why Aurora, Illinois?</p>
<p>Quint: Watching the city and watching the obesity rate and watching how people suffer from being overweight and diabetes and etc., I said, okay, there's a niche here. There's something to be had. So Aurora, obviously because I grew up here, but then the people and the city, and just seeing that there was a need to create something for people to be able to take care of themselves and live a happier life. That's why.</p>
<p>Quint: We'll take a little tour. So what we got here in front of us, the treadmill area. So this is where we do a little bit of cardio. In here, we don't do a lot of cardio. We do more strength training things. And our clientele base is primarily, we would say 85%, women. So when you think of women, what do they want to live? What do they want to build? They want to build...</p>
<p>Joey: They want the booty.</p>
<p>Quint: Booty. They want the legs. They want the lower body extremities. So we try to tailor most of my equipment around that. But then we also have stuff for us.</p>
<p>Joey: Okay. Cool. For these muscles? Quint: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Those cut out sleeves? This is working for you. Joey Thurman: Quint, man. I am beat up, but in a good way.</p>
<p>Quint: Absolutely.</p>
<p>Joey: Thank you for bringing me into, I would say your business, but your home in Aurora. I truly appreciate it. Where can people find you?</p>
<p>Quint: Yeah, you can find me in Aurora, downtown Aurora, in the heart of downtown at 2 West Downer Place, Aurora, Illinois, 60506, or you can give us a call at (630)- 692-9103. Or you can go to the website, www.qt3systems.com.</p>
<p>Joey: All right, Quint. Appreciate you, man.</p>
<p>Quint: Absolutely.</p>
<p>Joey: Bring it in. My arms.</p>
<p>Quint: How'd you like it, man?</p>
<p>Joey: I can barely lift them.</p>
<p>Quint: Look at that.</p>
<p>Joey: I look good. These muscles weren't here ahead of time. Check it out. Cheers.</p>
<p>Quint: Absolutely. Thanks for coming out, man.</p>
