Congratulations to Dudas Fitness personal trainer Megan on making her pro debut at the St. Louis Natural Classic Pro Bodybuilding competition this Saturday!

She earned second place, which is an amazing accomplishment on its own but especially considering this was only her second competition ever.

She competed alongside Lindsay, a world champion, who defended her title by earning first place. What an incredible achievement and a testament to her consistency and excellence at the highest level.

Such an impressive showing from both athletes.
Both competitors were supported in their prep by Dudas trainers Angie (Lindsay) and Nicole (Megan), bringing a strong representation of the team to the stage.

These competitions take an incredible amount of work and dedication to prepare for. Athletes aim to display a balance of muscle size, symmetry, conditioning, and stage presence. We are all so proud of you both. Drop a comment to congratulate them both!

Nick Dudas, co‑owner and personal trainer at Dudas Fitness, was honored to present at the National Strength and Conditioning Association’s Missouri State Clinic at the 1st Phorm Headquarters.

Drawing on 18 years in the field, from corporate gym trainer to private studio and now studio owner, Nick spoke about building a sustainable, impactful career in personal training.

We’re grateful to participate in events like this as it allows us to contribute to the professional community and support continuing education for coaches and personal trainers.

Big congrats to Megan! She competed for the first time ever in the NANBF Natural Southern States Classic, a tested drug free competition and a pro qualifying event. She took home FIRST PLACE in both the novice and open bikini division. She was the overall bikini winner and earned her WNBF Pro Card. That’s right - this girl can now hit the professional stage! Congrats Megan! Dudas Fitness

The personal training team at Dudas Fitness is made up of the best of the best and Megan is a great example of that.

If you’ve trained with her, you already know that she not only pushes you in training sessions but she also teaches you how to understand your body, move better, and accomplish your goals. There’s a reason she holds a PhD in Human & Sports Performance and still chooses to be on the floor working with people every day…she genuinely cares about helping others live healthier, stronger lives.

Now she’s up for recognition in the fitness space, and we’d love your support in helping her get there.

Whether you’ve worked with her personally or just seen the impact she’s had inside our gym, this is a chance to show some love for someone who gives a lot of it right back.

Proud to have her on our team 💚💪🏻

Big upgrades just landed at the studio!

Our new warmup/recovery room is now open!

As requested, we added two treadmills that have an additional feature of both inclining and declining. The room is also stocked with mats, resistance bands, foam rollers, soft tissue balls, stretching straps, yoga blocks and light dumbbells so you can prepare fo your session and recover afterward.

Still to come: The installation of a set of stall bars.

We’ve also added several new pieces of equipment, giving our personal trainers even more options to tailor and personalize workouts for their clients.

Equipment includes:
Leg press
Belt squat
High Row
Incline Press
Kneeling Leg Curl
Dual Leg Extension
Glute Drive
Universal Cable
Leg Extension/Leg Curl

At Dudas Fitness we’re always investing in the tools that help our clients move better, get stronger, and train smarter.

What’s your favorite addition!?

We’re excited to share that we’ll be making several updates around the studio over the coming weeks. These changes are focused on repurposing our existing spaces to make room for awesome new training opportunities, improved flow, and new equipment. We’re looking forward to making your training experience even better.

New Cardio / Warm-Up / Cool-Down Room
Our former upstairs classroom is being repurposed into a dedicated cardio, warm-up, and recovery space. All cardio equipment will be moved into this room, along with stall bars and mobility tools such as foam rollers, soft tissue balls, and bands.

This creates a focused area for warm-ups, conditioning, and recovery, while opening up more usable space on the main gym floor.

As part of this change, the large refrigerator will be removed. This allows us to open up the wall where the fridge currently sits, creating a second entry point directly into the new cardio and warm-up room and improving traffic flow throughout the studio. We’ll continue to have a water fountain available, and at this time we plan to discontinue bottled water sales.

New Flexible-Use Room
Our current downstairs office will be converted into a flexible specialty space. This room will include mirrors, dedicated lighting for our bodybuilding clients, and a clean setup that can be used for posing practice, small groups such as Kinstretch, or specialty sessions like private yoga. The space will be reservable and adaptable based on need.

This room will be available for use as soon as construction begins on the former classroom/new warm-up room, so services should not be interrupted.

Main Gym Floor Updates
With cardio moving into a dedicated space, we’ll be adding a significant amount of new equipment to the main gym floor to expand training opportunities. As a result, we will be reworking the layout both upstairs and downstairs.

By repurposing our spaces and adding a wide range of new equipment, we’re creating more opportunities to challenge your body in different ways while continuing to prioritize the quality, care, and environment you expect from our studio. We’ll keep you posted on timing and will always communicate ahead of time if anything affects your sessions.

We’re looking forward to sharing the finished spaces with you soon.

Oops… Did one of our towels hitch a ride home with you?

It happens! Our towels are adventurous little things and sometimes sneak into gym bags for a change of scenery.

If you discover one of our towels chillin’ at your place, we’d love to have it back!

Just drop it off next time you’re in—no awkward explanations required.

Thanks for helping our towels find their way home!
