Many first place trophies, plaques, and ribbons are now displayed on the shelves and walls of the facility to further validate the fact that we take pride in and are serious about what we do. Many of the clients previously trained in the past are now personal trainers themselves, with many opening their own facilities in different parts of the city and state, thus transforming personal desires from concept to reality.
