Frequently Asked Questions

What does Mental Toughness mean?

Some examples of mental weakness are:

Quitting when things get hard
Waiting for motivation
Fear of failure
Negative self-talk
Avoiding discomfort
Making excuses
Inconsistency
Fear of judgement
Resisting change
Blaming others

Intentionally training your mental toughness improves every aspect of your life.

What does Functional Fitness mean?

Function fitness is training that prepares your body for the physical demands of everyday life, sports, work, and other activities. You'll build strength, endurance, balance, mobility, and coordination through GRIT workouts. Movements like squatting, lifting, pushing, pulling, carrying, and climbing are all movements that you'll need regularly in life circumstances.

I don't exercise, but I want to start. Do I need to be at a certain fitness level before joining?

Absolutely not! The best day to make a change was yesterday. The second best day to make a change is TODAY. Any fitness level is welcome and able to do GRIT workouts. Whether you've never exercised in your life, or you're a competitive athlete...overweight or underweight...young adult or senior...you are capable. These workouts can be modified for anyone, so come as you are.

This sounds miserable...

Sometimes your attitude needs transformed more than your body. If you're not willing to walk in with a clean slate and a desire to improve, this gym isn't for you. My passion is helping people better themselves, both mentally and physically. I WANT the broken people who need their life transformed. Your self esteem, determination, persistence, and accomplishments will all play a role in how you live your life.

Why is building mental toughness important?

All GRIT workouts are training you for LIFE. You'll embrace discomfort, learn that quitting isn't an option, and find a way to complete the task. You'll replace excuses with accountability and discipline. That directly impacts how you raise your kids, your job performance, and how you treat yourself and others.

What is your policy on student memberships?

Fitness at any age is important! Student memberships are available for both high school and college levels. For open gym access, students must be 18+, no exceptions. Students must also be in school full time, and under the age of 22.

Is there a contract?

Memberships are charged monthly, with no contracts. If you need to pause or cancel, just notify us at least three days before your membership renews and we'll make sure you're not charged.

What events are held outside of class?

A few times a year, you'll have the option to join various events that take much preparation and training. Some past events include the OKC Memorial Marathon, David Goggins 4x4x48 Challenge, and Nutrition Challenges. These are extremely tough goals, and I'll be there every step of the way to help you complete them!

What does Open Gym entail?

Members with Open Gym access will be allowed entry into the gym during specific hours outside of class times. This is a great option for those with schedule conflicts, or those who prefer to work out solo. Access is granted by your choice of PIN code or or through a private app on your phone. Upon entry, you are expected to clean and return any equipment used during your session.

How does Open Gym access work?

If you have an Unlimited, Hero, Student (18+), or Open Gym Only membership, you will be given Open Gym access through one of these options: an individual PIN code, QR scan through an app, or fingerprint scan. These methods only work during specified Open Gym hours.

Can I bring my child during Open Gym?

Children are not allowed at Open Gym due to liability and insurance regulations. This includes children working out, as well as spectating on the sidelines. They are welcome to spectate during Functional Fitness classes, but must be seated near the entrance away from equipment and members.

Can I purchase a Drop-In pass for Open Gym?

Open gym is only available for those on a monthly Open Gym membership, not one-time visitors. If you have a friend/family member with an Open Gym membership and want to attend with them, you must contact Heather for a single-use entry code and Drop-In fee.

What will I learn with Nutrition Coaching?

Nutrition is often the hardest part of health and fitness. Nutrition coaching is 1 on 1, and fully customized to your goals, needs, and personality. Some people want hard accountability and to dive in 100%. Others do best with specific weekly goals, and gradually increase expectations. Some of the biggest transformations I've seen were through nutritional changes and improvements.
