We pride ourselves on more than 20 years supporting the fitness goals of the community, and offer the very best fitness lines around– with expertise and service that surpasses the rest. 

 

 

But we offer you even more than that.  Your dollar spent here gives you the added satisfaction of knowing that you are doing your part to help support your local Green Bay and Appleton economy in these tough times. 

 

 

Did you know that each dollar you spend at a local independent business returns three times more money than one spent on a chain?  That’s money that continues to circulate locally - at other local businesses - which in turn stimulates our economy.  Most of the money spent at chain stores circulates elsewhere - out of the city, and mostly out of state.   

 

And if you need more reasons to buy local, try these:   

 

  • Local businesses  put less demand on city services than most big box stores, and generate more tax revenue per sales dollar, which in turn helps keep your taxes lower.
  • Local businesses are healthier for the environment. Our stores are people-sized. They consume less land, and fewer utilities.
  • Local businesses build character. What makes a city special? It’s the unique businesses and people that make up its character. Big box stores multiply their similarity across the country - making one city look very much like another. Buy shopping local,  you  stand up for the unique character of your community.

 So come on in and check us out.  Do something good for your body, and for your community.  And make those hard-earned dollars count. Hope to see you soon.
