00:00:01.170 --> 00:00:02.003
We have a saying called,
2
00:00:02.003 --> 00:00:03.390
strength training is for everybody
3
00:00:03.390 --> 00:00:05.940 line:15%
and for us that's super important
4
00:00:05.940 --> 00:00:07.533 line:15%
and really drives our why.
5
00:00:09.300 --> 00:00:12.240
When you walk into SSP, people want you to be there.
6
00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:13.290
Even from the beginning,
7
00:00:13.290 --> 00:00:15.120
it felt like you were part of a team.
8
00:00:15.120 --> 00:00:17.550
We're not into fad exercises,
9
00:00:17.550 --> 00:00:19.500
we're not into trends,
10
00:00:19.500 --> 00:00:22.170
we do real exercise here with real people.
11
00:00:22.170 --> 00:00:24.120
The difference between SSP and a lot of other gyms
12
00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:26.580
is that it's that combination of motivating
13
00:00:26.580 --> 00:00:27.930
and wanting you to get better,
14
00:00:27.930 --> 00:00:29.640
but not at the expense of your health.
15
00:00:29.640 --> 00:00:31.380
You know we all kinda motivate each other
16
00:00:31.380 --> 00:00:34.080
and check in and if you're working out with people
17
00:00:34.080 --> 00:00:37.560
that you want to inspire, that wanna inspire you.
18
00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:40.080
We want to make strength training inclusive
19
00:00:40.080 --> 00:00:41.640
and accessible for everybody
20
00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:44.190
and we emphasize the body piece in that.
21
00:00:44.190 --> 00:00:46.260
Everybody knows everybody here,
22
00:00:46.260 --> 00:00:48.270
all the coaches know something about you,
23
00:00:48.270 --> 00:00:51.180
they know your goals, it's very personalized.
24
00:00:51.180 --> 00:00:55.440
People I work out with are just high energy, like funny,
25
00:00:55.440 --> 00:00:58.470
we laugh at ourselves, we laugh at our coaches,
26
00:00:58.470 --> 00:01:01.080
our coaches laugh at us like we just have good times.
27
00:01:01.080 --> 00:01:03.420
And Chris, and all the other coaches,
28
00:01:03.420 --> 00:01:06.390
do such an exceptional job of keeping it lighthearted
29
00:01:06.390 --> 00:01:08.850
and there's always this competitive feel,
30
00:01:08.850 --> 00:01:10.710
but it's really competitive with yourself
31
00:01:10.710 --> 00:01:12.690
and the rest of us are so supportive of each other.
32
00:01:12.690 --> 00:01:15.930
It's about being here, lifting, having fun,
33
00:01:15.930 --> 00:01:18.390
learning new skills, being in a great space,
34
00:01:18.390 --> 00:01:21.090
being part of a community, being with your friends.
35
00:01:21.090 --> 00:01:22.800
To be honest, I don't have to think when I come here
36
00:01:22.800 --> 00:01:24.960
the workout's done for me.
37
00:01:24.960 --> 00:01:26.400
Sometimes the weights are prescribed
38
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:28.980
for the different movements that we do,
39
00:01:28.980 --> 00:01:30.150
and that's perfect for me.
40
00:01:30.150 --> 00:01:31.470
I do a lot of thinking throughout the day
41
00:01:31.470 --> 00:01:34.230
I wanna come here and just sweat and have fun.
42
00:01:34.230 --> 00:01:35.063
At the end of the day
43
00:01:35.063 --> 00:01:36.480
it's about your health and wellness
44
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:39.390
and that's kinda the focus of this entire community.
45
00:01:39.390 --> 00:01:42.510
Everybody, and every type of body is welcome,
46
00:01:42.510 --> 00:01:44.100
all ages are welcome.
47
00:01:44.100 --> 00:01:46.260
We train youth athletes all the way up to people
48
00:01:46.260 --> 00:01:47.820
in their 70s and 80s, you know,
49
00:01:47.820 --> 00:01:49.140
and we pride ourselves in our ability
50
00:01:49.140 --> 00:01:52.890
to be able to program and provide a safe environment
51
00:01:52.890 --> 00:01:55.110
for people to exercise and that continues
52
00:01:55.110 --> 00:01:57.023
to be my mission to this day.
53
00:01:57.023 --> 00:02:00.106
