"Arnie is long considered the NBA's best strength and conditioning coach by players past and present, and we are thrilled that he is coming out of retirement to help us scale Red Effect Infrared Fitness globally with his extraordinary expertise on the science of infrared," proclaimed Mallad.

Red Effect Infrared Fitness offers an unparalleled workout experience and is first mover to innovate infrared therapy with the interval fitness training. The infrared heat emitted throughout the Red Effect fitness studio warms the body naturally, and enhances the workout to produce a deep, healthy and detoxifying sweat at a cellular level where most toxins reside.

"Among numerous health and wellness benefits, the innovative approach of infrared therapy could help fitness studio guests lose weight, lower their blood pressure, improve circulation, release toxins, reduce stress, increase energy and recover faster. We are first to market with this concept. We are passionate about positioning Red Effect Infrared Fitness to be the absolute best fitness value in the world for our members that are seeking optimal health and wellness," explained Founder and CEO Mallad.

Red Effect Infrared Fitness will continue to scale nationally with new locations in Michigan, Illinois, California, Florida, Canada and other strategic markets by end of 2018.
