SHERIDAN, WYOMING – August 4, 2025 – One of the most inspiring names in intelligent fitness training is making a comeback — and he’s bringing bold ideas with him. Mario Görlach, co-founder and longtime creative mind behind milon, is stepping back into the spotlight as CEO and shareholder of milon industries GmbH. His return marks the start of a new era for milon and five, two of Germany’s most trusted wellness brands.
Whether you're already a fan of circuit training or just curious about smarter ways to get fit, this leadership change could signal exciting developments for how we all train — and live — in the future.
Back to His Roots, Eyes on the Future
Görlach isn’t just returning in name — he’s bringing deep personal investment and hands-on leadership to the table. Now part of a dynamic leadership trio with Bernhard-Stefan Müller and Wolf Harwath, Görlach is set to guide the next evolution of milon’s mission: making training more accessible, measurable, and meaningful.
"I'm proud of what I've been able to achieve in recent years – now it's time to lead milon into the future with full force. It's a new chapter – we're turning everything on its head: with experience, a clear strategy, and the same passion: empowering people to achieve better health through intelligent training. Our focus is clear – real solutions for real challenges," says Mario Görlach.
Why This Matters for Everyday Fitness Enthusiasts
This isn’t just a business move. For people who train at studios using milon or five systems — or for anyone looking for intuitive, user-friendly fitness tools — this change could bring:
- More personalized, intelligent training plans
- Tech-enhanced tools that make workouts more effective
- Greater focus on real-life results over empty trends
Fitness today isn’t about being the fittest in the room. It’s about feeling better, moving smarter, and finding consistency that works with your life — and that’s exactly what milon and five aim to deliver.
The Power of Three: A Team That Lives and Breathes Wellness
What sets this leadership trio apart is their shared belief in real, sustainable training — not gimmicks. Bernhard-Stefan Müller and Wolf Harwath have already helped guide milon and five through a major transformation in recent years. With Görlach back in the mix, the team is ready to push boundaries.
"With Mario, we are consistently pursuing milon's bottleneck-focused strategy: focusing on our strengths, targeting clearly defined target groups, and developing profound problem solutions – with the goal of further expanding our position as market leader," explains Müller.
Harwath echoes the sentiment, reflecting on their shared past:
"Even though we were once competitors in the market, we always treated each other as equals – honestly, respectfully, and with the same passion for real training. Mario has never forgotten where his roots lie. That shows greatness – and it makes me proud to now shape the future together with him."
Real Training, Real Results
Back in the early 2000s, Görlach helped turn milon into a pioneer of digitally guided circuit training. His re-entry is a strong signal that the brand is doubling down on practical solutions — not fads.
The mission?
“Empowering people to achieve better health through intelligent training – with experience, strategy, and passion.”
Whether you're a gym member, studio owner, or simply someone who values tech-savvy wellness, this next chapter of milon promises to be about more than just machines. It’s about enabling everyday health breakthroughs — one smart workout at a time.
