The holidays are almost past us and all we have left is the scale to show. New Years happens each year and every year comes with a period of reflection that either encourages or depresses.

So many people want to be fit on the outside but are not READY to change on the inside. We see it everyday!

But maybe you have been that person in the past and now you are ready to make a change for the better!

I invite you to be a part of something incredible. A group of people working together for the same goal you are. People willing to work hard enough to change their lives. Are you ready???

Edmond Bootcamp offers 25 class times per week for just the best value in town. Mention this ad and try any bootcamp class for FREE  and we hope to see you soon!!!

Time goes by so fast. 2 years ago this month we opened Evolution and it has been the best thing I have ever been a part of. This business has far surpassed my wildest dreams while teaching me some valuable lessons along the way.

We have had tons of ups and downs, twists and turns, good partnerships and bad. But we have survived it all and here we are about to have our baby boy, Drake in a matter of days.

Over the last two years we have helped hundreds of people get and stay fit. In fact we are helping more people right now than ever before and we really do have an all star group. I am very proud to be a part of it.

I know some of you veterans had a chance to see this last year but I included my history of the gym that I did last year at this time and added a few new pictures and comments.

 

Keep reading for a couple of awesome Anniversary Specials!!!

 

So 2 years ago this month I picked up the keys to what would be Evolution Personal Training. If you didn’t know, we actually started with just the smaller side of the gym. And I am not kidding when I say there were body sized holes in the sheet rock, dingy floors and carpet and no AC!

Somewhere in there I saw the version of what we are now. The largest Personal Training Studio in the state and the only Indoor Bootcamp Studio around! I posted some of the pictures I found today of when I had to talk Amanda into my idea. (I had a tough sell, Riley was only 2 months old)

This first picture is what the front room looked like before the paint and decals

This is what the private training room looked like before it’s EVOLUTION! We are actually in the process of adding 3 new trainers and a new yoga instructor that will make even more use of this space. I am fired up to be able to help even more people get fit and to have some of the areas top trainers join Amanda and I in our fun!

As soon as we got everything put together in the gym, we were blessed with being able to have the whole building. However it cam with a cost and a lot of cleanup!

This is a shot of where the cardio sits now. You would think I would like the red floor but I am so happy we added the tile!

I didn’t get a chance to take pictures of what the back room looked like before they worked on it and honestly it was so bad that they started working before I even saw it.

This is what the lobby looked like about half way done. Notice the yellow wall on the left side. We really wanted to have a space where everyone could come in, hang out, and feel at home in the gym.

I love it that you guys are meeting and interacting with each other. It makes it more like community feel that we want to have.

This is the workout room while I was climbing off the three story scaffold that I had to talk myself into getting on every time because I thought it was going to fall. Big boys like me are not meant to be on 25 ft scaffold.

I am so happy to have this room. Our classes are getting huge! Even this week we packed this 5000 sq ft room at 5:30 in the morning!

What can I say…where else can you go and see a green floor. Let alone see amazing change and do crazy exercises that are always different and have a blast while doing it? We are so glad to have you guys!

Everyone chipped in to help us build our gyms. We couldn’t have done it without my family and all you guys. The last year has been great for Amanda, Riley, and I. We have had so much fun seeing all you guys do so great and achieve so much.

The great thing about all of this is that it is all only getting better. We have some awesome things coming up at Evolution Personal Training & Bootcamp.

 

Fast Forward One Year…

I am happy to report a whole lot more of the same. Our bootcamp family has grown astronomically but we still have almost all of the same great smiling faces. We now have have 9 trainers and bootcamp instructors that I consider top notch and plans for big growth in the future.

If you have been around me for anytime at all you know that I always have something in the works and right now is no exception. In the next few months you will have access to my first book about what it takes to be successful long term. You will also get more tools like my grocery shopping tours and healthy meal options as well as seminars and tutorials on food psychology and how to develop the ideal fitness life away from the gym.

I am very excited to watch my personal and business family grow in the upcoming months. This is going to be awesome and I am so proud of all of you guys for your accomplishments along the way.

I don’t usually do this but in honor of being 2 years strong I am going to offer a 2 yr anniv special. All of these can be purchased at the gym or over the phone at any time…
