Anytime Fitness is excited about their new expansion. Not only are they adding 850 square feet to the club, they are bringing new classes, a fitness kiosk, and the space will provide more privacy for those wanting to have some solitude.
“We are really excited about this new expansion, and our goal is to incorporate overall fitness and introduce new ways of working out,” said Deb Shuford, Anytime Fitness Manager.
The expansion will allow the space for group training which comes in the form of TRX ( suspension band training), Yoga, Boot Camp, Boxing Fitness which can also be used in one-on-one training with a personal trainer as well. According to Shuford, TRX is one of the most widely sought new classes and includes Suspension Training that leverages gravity and your body weight to perform hundreds of exercises.
“Group training is something Anytime Fitness is very excited about and it can be incorporated with personal training for overall fitness, ” said Shuford.
Another exciting feature is Fitness on Request, an innovative program that offers top quality fitness classes that are available at any time. Fitness on Request, designed to offer classes to people whose schedules don’t always allow time for attending classes. With just a few simple touches at a stylish Fitness on Request kiosk, users can access any type of group fitness class, 24 hours a day. The fully automated system deploys a massive 133-inch projection screen bringing the Fitness on Request instructor to life with High Definition video and studio-grade audio. These classes can be done alone or with other members.
“Sometimes you still need a trainer or a group instructor to motivate you, so although we have the Fitness on Request, we still want to have the group classes,” said Shuford. “You need that live person to help motivate you, and make sure you have proper form, give you inspiration.”
Shuford said Anytime Fitness is currently looking for teachers to teach our classes and if anyone is interested to please call and inquire.
“This expansion is going to be great for our current members, and for the community,” said Shuford. “Now we can offer a program that will really enhance overall fitness, with our trainer, our classes, we couldn’t be more excited about that.”
