Competition matters.
Not because everyone needs a trophy or a podium finish
—but because it forces you to find out who you really are when it counts.
Training alone is one thing.
Showing up, putting weight on the bar, and performing when people are watching? That’s different.
That’s where growth happens.
At Spanaway Fitness, this is what we’re about.
We’ve built a space where people don’t just work out—they train with purpose.
Where showing up for each other is normal.
Where first-time lifters and experienced competitors stand side by side and push each other to be better.
The Bench Press Bash isn’t just an event.
It’s a reflection of the culture our members have created.
Support.
Accountability.
Effort.
That’s why this place is different.
May 16 — come be a part of it.

Proud of this Team
Spanaway Fitness brought home the Dope Cup, and it was earned the right way. These lifters showed up, stayed consistent, and put in the work week after week leading into this event.
Nothing was given. They worked for it.
Proud to have this team representing Spanaway Fitness.

Spanaway Fitness welcomes Vanessa Garris as its new trainer and owner-operator.
Vanessa has been training in this gym since she was a teenager and has worked in the fitness
industry since the age of 18. She has seen the trends come and go — detox teas, crash diets,
endless “new systems” promising overnight results.
What hasn’t changed is this:
Discipline works.
Consistency works.
Structure works.
With over 10 years of coaching experience, Vanessa has worked with first-time weight loss
clients, competitive athletes, and everything in between. Her competitive background includes
powerlifting, strongman, and bodybuilding, and she is currently preparing for her first IFBB
Women’s Physique Pro show.
She believes in leading from the front.
Her coaching philosophy is simple: raise the standard, execute consistently, and build results that
last beyond a single program.
As owner-operator, Vanessa is focused on strengthening the culture of Spanaway Fitness —
creating an environment where members build strength and develop confidence that extends
beyond the gym floor.
The mission isn’t hype.
It’s ownership.
Welcome to the next chapter of Spanaway Fitness.
