Anytime Fitness opens after remodeling

I feel like Im in a different city, and This is the best thing going in Marshall, were just some of the comments owner Joshua Awbrey heard after the grand re-opening and the complete remodeling of Anytime Fitness.

The re-model took two weeks to complete and during that time absolutely no gym member could use the 24-hour fitness haven.

They love it, Awbrey said. No one can say they dont like it when its new like this. Weve been getting great feedback.

As a part of their corporate office, the gym must have a remodeling around every five years to keep them up to date.

Though its keeping some of the same equipment, Awbrey said they will be adding new pieces and trading in some others.

Were adding some more pieces. It takes eight to 10 weeks because (manufacturers) have to build them, so well have four new pieces coming in and were getting rid of some and trading some out, he said.

Some of the new features added include a multipurpose room where members can choose a workout video to follow along with and work out with others. Awbrey said his goals for the gym was to increase membership to 1,300, increase revenue in the training department and add a female trainer.

Awbrey described the previous model of the gym as dark and dungeony, but said the new remodeling has completely changed everything that gym members know about Anytime Fitness.

The whole thing is my favorite, he said when asked what his favorite part about the remodeling was. The old model was dark and kind of dungeony with black ceilings. Its bright now its just changed the whole perception of the gym.

We want everyone whos been old members or havent worked out in a while to come and check it out if they havent been here since and be awestruck.
