And another History Class Special! Ever wonder why we have a bunch of 35 and 15 pound plates, but just a few 45s and no 25s??? He're the scoop. We started HCS with our savings and no major loans from outside parties. This kept us on a shoestring budget for opening. While we were in the planning stage (before we had a name, location etc) Rogue had a sale on 35 pound plates that was too good to pass up. We ordered a bunch of them immediately. Soon after, put on their garage sale, which we can only briefly describe as "the fittest free for all yard sale on earth" We had the option of getting 45's or 55's. Seeing as we already had 35's, the gap to 45 was too small to justify the purchase so we went with the reds. Since we didn't have a location yet, we shipped and stored all of the plates in Cam and SayKay's Pleasant Ridge apartment for months. A strong rubber smell lingered for weeks. Using the same logic as the 55s, we went with 15's instead of 10s (plus they are more durable). Eventually we got 45's at another garage sale but will probably never get 25s. We make it work with what we got and people are still getting more fit and having a great time and we love the Kru for understanding.

Another History Class Special! Guess the cats out of the bag now (super inside joke) about what HCS stands for. This quick story is about the logo. After getting our super awesome and clever names rejected numerous times, we settled on a name and we needed a logo. We aren't the best designers and we didn't have money to hire anyone so we sat around MBrew and came up with ideas. So... many... ideas. Eventually we wanted something simple and strong. We searched sports teams and was inspired by the simplicity of the US soccer team logo. This led us to creating the HCS shield. We've been proud of that logo since we created it. We hope you like it too. Enjoy the logos that could have been the one.

A little History Class Special for everyone. Before we moved to our 9 Mile location, we had a place on Vester with the garage facing 9 Mile. For the first 8 months, the back looked pretty rusted out. We often had people parking and hanging out behind our building because they thought it was vacant. We came up with the plan to paint the back so people knew that it was a functioning business. We (read: Coach Cam the artist) did the entire project ourselves and, of course, we had to make it a little over the top. The landlord and next tenant thought it was cool enough to leave up and the building next door tried to match the color scheme. If you're ever riding west, towards Woodward. Before you get to Como's, look right and you'll see a little mark of HCS history.
