BACK TO SCHOOL. BACK TO YOU.
1:1 Personal Training
💫💪🏼
With school starting back up and routines settling into place, it’s a good time to start thinking about you, too.

Maybe you’ve been putting your own training on the back burner. Maybe you’re coming back from an injury or some time away. Maybe you’re just not quite ready for small-group training yet.
⬇️
Or maybe you’re ready to get stronger and want a program built specifically around your goals, your needs, and where you are right now—while also learning how to move well, build proper form, and train in a way that helps you stay injury-free as you get stronger.

🚨We’re excited to be expanding our 1:1 Personal Training program at The Underground, with Coach June Burns heading up our individual coaching.

We’re also adding new afternoon, evening, and weekend availability to make 1:1 training work with more schedules.

You don’t have to wait until you feel “ready.” You just need to take the first step!

🫶This season, make some time for yourself.

🌅🇺🇸 SUNRISE STAIR CLIMB | FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 11 🇺🇸🌅
Honoring the Fallen Heroes of 9/11

We’re back for year TWO — and this will be an annual community tradition at The Underground.

It’s no secret our gym members love to DO HARD THINGS, and you showed up in a big way last year! More than 50 of you joined us to climb the equivalent of the 110 stories of the World Trade Center — approximately 2,200 steps — carrying on the tradition of 9/11 Memorial Stair Climbs held across the country to honor the 343 FDNY firefighters who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.

Grab a partner or Fire Team of 4 and complete the 110 stories, with or without weighted gear. Bring your vest, ruck or pack, or grab weights from the gym.

This is more than a workout. Every step is a tribute to courage, sacrifice and resilience. And this year, it’s also great training for our big crew heading to hike Glacier in October! 🏔️

🌅 Start Times:
5:30 AM
7:00 AM

This is a community event and everyone is welcome! Bring a friend, family member or coworker and join us on the Chestnut Street stairs across from The Underground downtown Stillwater.

Whether you climb one flight or all 110 stories, every step counts!! 🇺🇸

THE UNDERGROUND FALL RETREAT
🏔️🍂🏔️

October 1–4, 2026 | Whitefish, Montana

We’re so excited to officially announce our first-ever Underground Fall Retreat!

We’ll be spending four days exploring one of the most beautiful places in the country with an incredible group of women and the perfect mix of outdoor fitness, adventure, relaxation, and nightlife.

Here’s a sneak peek of what we’re planning...

🥾 Hiking in Glacier National Park
🚤 Lake adventures & happy hour cruises
🚙 ATV excursions
♨️ Rooftop hot tub happy hours & spa time
🧘‍♀️ Morning yoga
🍷 Great restaurants, cocktails, and nightlife
🍺 Oktoberfest festivities (for anyone who wants to join in!)
🛍️ Shopping in charming downtown Whitefish
🤍 Plenty of time to relax, recharge, and connect

We’ve already got about 15 women signed up! We’ll be staying at one of downtown Whitefish’s cutest boutique hotels, right in the middle of all the restaurants, shops, and nightlife. We’ve got a block of rooms reserved, but they’ll go fast during the busy fall season!

So pack your favorite workout clothes, your hiking shoes, your cowboy boots, and something fun for Oktoberfest... this is going to be one for the books. 🍂🤍

👟One of the simplest upgrades you can make for strength training has nothing to do with your workout program. It might be your SHOES!

Modern footwear has trended toward thicker and softer soles over the years. While that can be great for some activities, it isn’t always the best choice when you’re trying to create a stable foundation for lifting.

For strength training, less shoe is often more❗️

One of the most common recommendations I make to new members is to consider a flatter, more stable training shoe. It’s a small change, but one that can make a surprisingly big difference in how connected and stable you feel during your lifts.

As a coach, I notice that movement often cleans up almost immediately when someone switches from a soft, cushioned running shoe to a stable training shoe. Squats look more controlled, lunges more balanced, and deadlifts more grounded. It’s not because the shoe makes you stronger—it’s because it gives you a more stable foundation to work from. 💪

A low-drop, minimal-stack shoe creates a stronger connection to the floor and a more stable foundation for squats, deadlifts, lunges, and carries.

The goal isn’t necessarily to lift more weight—it’s to move better, feel more stable, and build confidence under load.

✨ Better ground contact.
✨ Better stability.
✨ Better movement.

Start from the ground up.

👇👟 Comment “NEW SHOES” and we’ll send you our favorite training shoe recommendations!
