Now, everyone that exercises here has timeslots for their workouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There have been big advantages to this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Accountability. When you have a specific time to workout, people are more apt to stick with it.<\/li><li>No more drop-ins. Some people are uncomfortable working out with people they don&#8217;t know.<\/li><li>Workout with your friends or people you like. We have families that workout together as well as friends.<\/li><li>Men welcome! We have always been primarily a women&#8217;s gym, but with the change, women don&#8217;t have to worry about men exercising in their timeslot, unless they are comfortable with that. We have several married couples that workout together.<\/li><li>Member retention! Since this change, there are fewer dropouts.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> What we discovered with the scheduling model is that there is a much broader appeal to the gym. Where some people may prefer a more flexible model where they can workout whenever they want, many others prefer a more personal, controlled environment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The scheduling model opens up all sorts of possibilities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>One family purchases a time slot during the week and brings different members of the family each time.<\/li><li>People can choose a time slot to run an exercise class. Barb and I both run classes, but anyone else could do the same!<\/li><li>We have several groups of &#8220;workout buddies&#8221;.  Currently, if there are 4 people in a timeslot, we will not schedule anyone else in. Then you can pretty much do what you want &#8211; play the music you like or even do a workout online with friends.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We understand that there are those that prefer flexibility and don&#8217;t really care who they exercise with. We ran Fay&#8217;s Fitness as an &#8220;open&#8221; model for 30 years. With this change, we have discovered a whole new market where  people can feel comfortable in a personal setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is some flexibility within this model. We understand there are times one can&#8217;t workout within their scheduled time and they can contact us for another available time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Call or message us to see what we can work out for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ron<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For our gym, scheduled workouts have been a positive development during the pandemic.
