Urban Athlete Fitness Studio

Sometimes the best thing you can do for your fitness progress is a little less!

If your workouts feel harder than usual, you're constantly sore, your motivation is tanking, or you've hit a plateau, it might not mean you need to push harder. It might mean you need a deload.

We break it all down in our latest blog, including:

→ What a deload week actually is
→ Signs you may need one
→ How to do one properly
→ What happens after

🎉 You’re Invited! 🎉

Our Transform participants have been working hard these past 10 weeks, and it’s time to celebrate!

Join us on Sunday, June 14th at 11am for our Transform Wrap-Up Party. We'll be celebrating everyone's accomplishments with prizes, games, food, and plenty of time to hang out and celebrate together.

We're also excited to welcome back some of our amazing local sponsors, including DynamicYYC, who will be offering mini massages again this year!

Reminder: Final check-ins are happening this week. If you haven't booked yours yet, please schedule it as soon as possible so we can collect your final measurements and results before the party.

We can't wait to celebrate with you!

Happy June!

See you in class!

It’s easy to think progress only counts when you see it in the mirror or on the scale. But there’s a lot more to it than that.

Like you’ve got a bit more energy after work.

Like your mood doesn’t dip as much as it used to.

Like you’re less stressed over the same things that used to pull you down.

Like healthy choices feel a bit more automatic.

Like your workouts feel a little easier than they did before..

These aren’t the wins that you track in your fitness app, but they are just as important.

Don’t let the physical changes be the only thing that drives you!

Sponsor Spotlight: Holistic Balance Massage & Wellness

We’re so excited to have Holistic Balance joining us for Transform this year!

Sarah brings over 8 years of experience as a Registered Massage Therapist, with a special focus on chronic pain, overuse injuries, concussion recovery, and movement-related issues from training, sport, and everyday life.

After dealing with multiple concussions and sports-related injuries herself, she knows how frustrating it can be when pain starts affecting the things you love to do. That experience shaped her passion for helping others move, train, and live with less pain.
