Well today is the day we open our new unit & we’ve had a lot of time to reflect on what it took to get here.
We know this space may not be for everybody & that’s okay. Fitness has never been one-size-fits-all. Different goals require different styles of training & at FTBX we’ve always wanted to bring something different so more people can find something here that works for them.
This expansion was one we went back & forth on many times. We questioned whether it made sense for FTBX, & whether it could benefit our members, student athletes, & anyone wanting to add more conditioning to their training
Every expansion comes with risk, & this one was no different. But we took that risk because we believed we could bring something new to our community.
4 years ago, FTBX started with one goal: to grow & never become comfortable staying in the same place. 4 years later, we’ve grown into nearly 4,000 sq ft & every bit of that growth came from taking chances,reinvesting,learning as we went & continuing to believe there was always room for more.
We know we’re still small. We hear it all the time. We know we don’t have the huge open concept gym people may picture when they think of a traditional facility but this is where God has us right now.
We truly believe that when the time is right, He’ll put us exactly where we’re meant to be. Whether that keeps us in Port Isabel or eventually takes us somewhere else, for now we’re going to keep building right where we are until God shows us what’s next.
To every member who has stayed with us through every expansion, rearrangement, construction mess, equipment move & new idea thank you.
FTBX wouldn’t be FTBX without you & while this 4th unit feels like the end of a big chapter, we already know..we’re never really done. There will always be another idea, piece of equipment,& another way to make this place better. For now, we’re going to enjoy this one.
We hope this unit brings something new to our members. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for believing in us. FTBX was never made to be like everyone else.
4 years down. Year 5 is next 👀
we’ll see what God has store for us.
We’re Built Different.
