Hey folks, tomorrow the 9am Boot Camp will be CANCELED so you can all rest up for Emmett’s BIG workout at 6pm. This class will be back to normal next week 🙂

See you there!

How about we do this one more time!

This Sunday evening at 6 PM come celebrate the past six years like we know how to best! Sweat, laughs, but no tears!
We’re gonna do this one outside, so if you’ve been a Barn member in the past or present, this one’s for you!

See you Sunday!

2084…The number of days that we’ve been open here at The Barn. On October 1st 2016, I brought a dream to life. I’ve always had a passion for fitness and who wouldn’t want to create a career around something they are passionate about.

The past six years have been such a big part of my life. I’m looking back today and thinking about all the great relationships that I’ve made, all the laughs and parties we’ve had, and most importantly, I’d like to think that I was able to make some positive changes in people’s lives. Maybe it was me giving you a hard time in class, pushing you because I knew you had more to give, a PT session that you wish you never signed up for, or maybe it was just a friendly conversation that we shared. These memories will always be special to me and I thank each of you for being a part of them.

I don’t want to make this message too long and drawn out, but I have decided to step away; a decision that hasn’t been easy.

My life is a lot different now than it was when I started. Changes in my personal life require me to be more flexible with my time and away from home for longer stretches. Those of you who have been around for awhile are already used to me leaving in the summer to operate my rafting business and quite simply, the gym needs and deserves more than I can currently give, in order for it to grow.

…It’s time for the gym to evolve.

I’m excited to announce that Matt and Mitch Benvie and their team at Evolve Fitness will take over the reins next week and guide the gym moving forward. They are experts in the field of health and fitness as they have proven at their two fitness facilities in HRM. Matt and I have known each other for quite awhile as he is a local and has roots here too. I’m confident that I am leaving the gym in great hands and I am excited to see what they bring to you.

I’ve been bragging to the boys about the great community we have created here at The Barn so I don’t wanna hear that any of you have been slacking while I’m away rafting!

But before I let you go, I want to let you know this isn’t “goodbye”. This is “I’ll see you around”.

The Summer Shred Challenge has kicked off this week! Everyone has been making steady progress with this weeks tasks! Rosalie, Lisa and Glenda took the extra step today to work on some of this weeks tasks ahead of their 9:30 Boot Camp Class!

If you are still interested in joining this 4 week challenge that is designed to make you feel better and look better going into this summer, it's not to late to join! Sign up is open until tomorrow June 17th, by the end of the day. If you’d like to sign up or have any questions regarding the challenge, speak to any of our staff at The Barn. Go check out our last post, it contains all the details of our 4 week Summer Shred Challenge! We look forward to helping you crush your summer goals!

Let’s shred for summer! This $1 a day, 4 week challenge will help you get back into a routine so that you can look and feel your best as we head into the summer months! If you’ve been struggling, we want to help! Let’s team up to work for the healthy body you deserve!

If you want to do this challenge with a partner who isn’t a member, we have a special offer for them. For $49.99, they will get a 4 week membership, giving them access to all our bootcamp classes during the challenge.

Each week, members will have a certain number of classes that must be completed to earn points per team/individual.

You may participate solo or with 1 partner.
Teams of 2 will double the workload.
For example, if the number of classes for the week is 5, the team of 2 must complete a combined total of 10 classes. One team mate may do more than 5 classes to take pressure off the other.

Each new week starts on Monday and the team stats and weekly leaders will all be announced once scores are in.

This challenge will run on a points system.
There will be 3 tasks to complete each week for a maximum of 3 points. In addition, bonus points may be earned each week for the bonus task (30k step day for example). If you are a team of two, to get the bonus points, both of you will need to complete the task.

1st place prize - rafting trip for you and a friend/partner with Shubie River Wranglers this summer
2nd place - hoodie and hat
3rd place - smoothie card

Bonus prize for the best “before and after” pics
= $100 Subway gift card

Challenge starts on Monday June 13th and will run until July 10th.
Sign-up will be at the front desk with Sam, He will be handing out your point tracking sheets and will be your main point of communication if you have any questions.

What’s your favourite snack? Here’s a fun little chart to see what you can eat for around 200 calories.
The quart of Strawberries would be my choice not only because of the taste but due large quality you get and if you look they almost have as much protein as the almonds!

Surround yourself with great people and great things will happen!
