🌟 AUGUST MEMBERS OF THE MONTH 🌟
This month we’re celebrating a very special trio - The McCormick Family! James, Tony & Jo! 🫶🏼
These three have become regular faces around the gym, consistently showing up, putting in the work and making training a part of their routine.
James has been a huge part of helping Tony and Jo with their training, encouraging them, keeping them accountable and making the gym something they can all enjoy together. ❤️
It’s been so awesome seeing them train as a family and support each other along the way. They’re such a friendly, positive presence in the gym and a big part of what makes our community so great.
Congratulations to our August Members of the Month so well deserved! 👏🏼
Keep up the amazing work, team! 🏋🏼♀️✨

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, stepdads, grandads and father figures in our community 💜
The ones who lead by example, show up even when they don’t feel like it, and remind us that strength is about so much more than what you can lift.
Here’s to the dads who keep showing up for both themselves and for the people who look up to them.
Happy Father’s Day legends 🫶
