Every year that passes, since I started Revolution Fitness & Therapy in 2009, is another year I’m amazed by.
And while I am seldom at a loss for words, it does become slightly more difficult for me to express what each passing anniversary means to me.
People may ask you throughout your professional career: Where do you want to be in 5 years…in 10 years…
And I’ve never known how to answer that, especially with regard to RevFit.
What business looked like 10 years ago, was not what it looked like 5 years ago, and 5 years from now, when I fully hope and expect to be writing about our 22nd anniversary, I’m not entirely certain what that reality will look like either.
Some constants remain.
We will continue to do our best at being Northeast Ohio’s premier semi-private personal training facility.
We will continue to nurture and support the goals of a diverse range of clientele, personalities, body sizes and shapes with an environment that (we hope) makes people want to come back for more.
We will continue to push our education forward to keep learning more about how strength training and nutrition can help you live your best life.
We will continue to be the self proclaimed “Center For Misbehaving Adults”, a title we seem to reclaim every single day.
And I will continue to be grateful.
Grateful for the staff who shows up with me day in and day out to provide these services.
Grateful for the community who give us the opportunity to open our doors and keep them open.
Grateful for the people who continue to spread the word about us, by inviting friends and family to be a part of what we do.
Grateful to clients both past and present for helping to inform and broaden the work we do.
Grateful that I can support my family in an industry where the average personal trainer may only last a year or less before they burn out and change fields.
When I opened up in 2009, never in my wildest dreams did I know what year 17 would look and feel like.
But I’ll be damned if I’m not immensely proud of how far we’ve come.
So, no matter who you are, if you’re reading this, thank you in large part or small for being here and allowing a little dream to turn into something really special.
On behalf of myself and the crew at RevFit, thank you.
And a little line to leave you with that I’ve been using more often lately…
Greatness happens here.
You should join us.
