America is about to celebrate its 250th anniversary. That means that the Bicentennial is a full 50 years ago. If you were around back then like I was, you are now lucky enough to be pretty damn old. 1976 may not seem like all that long ago, but it’s about as far from today as the Coolidge administration was from the Bicentennial, which is completely insane. I mention this to put Fitness Incentive in a broader context. FI was born a mere 8 years after that memorable 4th of July, 1976. Yes, we’ve been at this for almost exactly 42 years, which is a really long time to be doing anything. But when you love something, nay, are obsessed with something, it becomes your life, and you barely perceive time moving at all. Our family has been incredibly fortunate to be in love with something that has loved us back, and we are eternally grateful for your long-time passionate support of our dream, Fitness Incentive. Without you, there is no Fitness Incentive. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Speaking of how time flies when you’re having fun, our 17th annual Fit4Summer challenge just wrapped up. The results are always outstanding for almost everyone who participates, and this year was no exception. What was notable was the eye-opening performance of not only the winning team, but especially the top individual, Kasandra Gerlak. Kasandra’s results are unmatched in the annals of the contest – and that’s 17 years of contests! She epitomized exactly what the challenge is all about – building muscle/lean mass while losing body fat. No one has ever done it better! You can read all about Kasandra and her winning team in this issue: here and here! And you can review the full results of the challenge here. Congratulations to everyone who committed to the 12 weeks! Enjoy a fit summer; you earned it!

Spa Mobile App is a Must!

Have you downloaded the new Spa Mobile App? If not, you should! It’s super-easy to book appointments, purchase gift cards, and manage both right on your phone. Download it from the Apple iPhone Store or the Google Play Store

The Skylite Cafe has also been busy adding some new flavors that we think you’re going to love. For starters, Espresso. And not just Espresso, but Nespresso Espresso. We’re offering a selection of your favorite Espresso-based beverages, as well as add-a-shot options for all our shakes.

If that’s not enough to get your mouth watering, we’ve also added Black Forest High Flavanol Cocoa. It’s a superfood that just happens to be super delicious, too. Add it to any beverage – I highly recommend it with an Iced Latte – and it’s instantly uplifted. Chocolate deliciousness that’s good for you? Yes, this is Fitness Incentive! Read more about it right here.

Yeah, We Got That!

Summer vacation is nigh, and that can mean only one thing: More Fitness Incentive!

We make it super easy with an affordable all-of-summer membership designed for students. It starts when your summer vacation starts, and ends the day you return to school. Stop by the front desk and join today!

Upgraded and Ready to Roll!

We’ve been investing a lot of time, energy, and dinero in building up our Video Class lineup and improving the quality of our class videos. We’ve upgraded all of our lighting and video equipment, and now we’re adding even more classes. If you’re a Full-Access member, you already get access to all the video classes, both live-streamed daily and on-demand. If you’re not a member of the physical gym, you can still become a Virtual Member and enjoy all of the classes with our new Virtual Membership. It’s easy and affordable, and you can watch the class videos on our mobile app, stream to your smart TV, or watch on our website.
