3 years at Fortitude and got serious last year haha wanted to join a gym close to home. Best investment!

First session was with my siblings and a whole lot of skipping. We obviously enjoyed ourselves since we’re still here 3 years later lol

What kind of changes have you experienced since starting Fortitude that were completely unexpected (ie. new friends, “family”, the community, more self-confidence, etc)?
