One of the biggest myths in fitness is that you need to be fit before you join a gym.
Hugh is living proof that you don't.
When he joined FIIT Project last year at 69 years old, he had no previous gym experience and admits he was a little apprehensive about getting started.
That's completely normal.
In fact, it's exactly how many people feel before their first session.
What matters isn't where you start. It's finding coaches who can meet you where you're at and help you progress safely and confidently.
Fast forward to today and Hugh is doing things he never imagined he'd be doing when he first walked through our doors.
The goal has never been to make everyone train the same way.
The goal is to help each person become a fitter, stronger, healthier version of themselves.
Thanks for the kind words, Hugh, and for showing others that it's never too late to get started. π
If you've been putting off joining a gym because you think you're too old, too unfit, or don't know where to begin, send us a message.
You might be surprised by what you're capable of.
