BUMP Health and Fitness announces Jacinta McDonell as new Advisory Board Member

Amid their expansion in the pre and post-natal specialist fitness space, BUMP Health and Fitness has appointed Anytime Fitness co-founder and Fitness Industry Roll of Honour Inductee Jacinta McDonell as an Investor and Advisory Board Member bringing over 20 years of fitness business and franchise experience.  

Founded by Calum Wilson and Ross Lucas, BUMP Health and Fitness are committed to revolutionising the female fitness journey before conception and well into motherhood. At the core of what sets BUMP apart is how they prioritise women throughout these major milestones and support and optimise their wellbeing as their physical needs change.  

The BUMP Health and Fitness team of experts have created a strategic business franchise model, which can be run as owner operator or as an investor with the backing of BUMP’s professional and progressive support team.

As the business grows and develops McDonell will continue to advise and support the Founders and the team to develop and grow a sustainable and values based franchise brand.

McDonell will advise on the growth of BUMP to be a successful national franchise brand and will continue to grow and lead in the delivery of world class programs for women specialising in pre and post-natal fitness.

McDonell shared “I have large ambitions for BUMP.

“I believe in people first. When I met Ross and Calum, I immediately knew that our values aligned, and they had a true desire to learn and grow. As I worked with them, I saw the community of members that Ross and Calum had built in their clubs and knew that they had created something very special that needed to be shared with more women. I have worked with them since and am excited to continue to work with them and the incredible team we have assembled at BUMP.”

BUMP Health and Fitness launched its first location in Dee Why in Sydney’s Northern Beaches in 2018 and in 2021 opened its second location in Erina on the Central Coast. The Franchise company BUMP Wellness launched in the second half of 2022 and in the first few months, 4 BUMP franchises have already been snapped up with many more territories gaining interest.  BUMP’s target is to have 100 BUMP clubs across Australia in the next five years.
