At the start of the new year, I don’t think it’s too far fetched to assume that everyone has fitness goals on the brain. Hell, I know I sure do! After all, they do say “summer bodies are made in the winter”
This is why finding the perfect gym that could make that saying a reality in my life was so dang important. So when I got the opportunity from Kayva and my friends at Eko Studios to train at F45 gym and bring a friend? I jumped at the opportunity.
Upon arriving, I was greeted with so much good energy. To the point that no matter which way I turned, I was greeted by someone on the gym’s staff with an energetic hello. Which can I just say is just the way a training gym should be?
I mean yeah. We’re all there to focus and get our workout on. However, there’s something so comforting about working out somewhere that is encouraging and welcoming. Both of those things I just knew the company encompassed after being inside for less than 10mins. HA! For a girl who has a thing for friendly welcomes, I guess you’d be safe to assume they had me at “Hello”.
The inside of the facility (lobby area) was immaculate. It spoke to my love for minimalism in a way that I can’t begin to describe without drooling. If you guys are avid readers of the blog, you know I have an obsession with minimalism. The lobby area was white with lockers on the right upon entering. To the left was the desk where you could check in and behind the desk was fun workout gear that was purchasable.
Inside the gym itself was so bad ass omg.
It spoke to everything you think of when you say you’re headed to a “training gym.”
Now for you babes who may have never heard of F45? I’ll give you the basis of the facility + their mission.
Per the website (and because I’ve personally experienced the facility I can attest to this),
“F45 Training is the new training technique leaving competition and clients gasping for air. F45 is the most innovative, challenging and systemised team training workout in the world.”
It’s functional training with different stations that appeal to cardio and strengthening. The very things you need to make that summer body a reality come May!
The trainers personally encourage you when you think you can’t go any more with motivating words, genuine smiles, and lots of laughter! Even David Ford; the owner of the gym; will come around to make sure you’re okay from time to time and high five you on a job well done! If that’s not welcoming, I don’t know what is y’all.
As for me, I’d be lying if I told you I wasn’t on the verge of throwing up a time or two.
Get this though!
In the midst of it, I loved every second of that feeling because it showed me that I was doing WORK. Making me feel even prouder that I made it through the workout in the end.
SO if you’re like me get on it! Start building that summer body in the winter at F45 gym! They have multiple locations including the one here in Houston. They also have a one week free trial they’re offering if you go to their website or just click here!
To getting our bodies right, one functional workout at a time,
