I’ve worked out in all different styles of gyms. Small hole in the wall gyms, gyms attached to my apartments, big gyms like LA Fitness and 24 Hour Fitness. They all have their strength and weaknesses. Big gyms tend to be crowded. They have a lot of different pieces of equipment to use which is great, but for some, it can be intimidating and complicated. Some people do better in a less hectic environment. If that sounds like you, our local gym might be right for you.
Fit-InMotion’s community isn’t huge, but it’s strong. Our gym is about 3,000 square feet. In that space, we house more equipment than the average facility that’s 7,000 square feet! Our gym is filled with all kinds of functional equipment. We don’t have large machines, outside of a stationary bike and a rowing machine, it’s all weights, barbells, sandbags and so much more!
What to Expect Working Out at Our Gym
Expect smaller groups of people. Rarely are there more than 20 people in the room. Expect circuits. I’m not keen on sitting around. Circuit style training is also a better use of our time than weight lifting with large rest periods in between sets. We only have an hour. I want to get the most done that we can.
Expect to get to know the people around you. It’s not a huge gym and there are plenty of regulars. Men and women who consistently show up to our classes. People who have built relationships with others from the gym, grabbing coffee or lunch after classes. They communicate with each other. They let each other know when they’re not going to be able to make it. That kind of community in the gym is powerful.
So many of these people who had never worked out a day in there life for the first 45 years of there life. Now they work out 4 days a week and have been down weight for 3 years. It’s an amazing thing to watch and be a part of.
