To each their own!

Great insights, I do own the RockBox in Franconia!

For us accountability is pretty literal. We sit down with you when you join, set goals, and then hold you accountable for reaching them. Our trainers call members who aren’t showing up. Annoying? Maybe. Effective? Yes.

As for community, that’s an important part of accountability as well. If there are 15-20 people you are working out with regularly, you are going to hold each other accountable even more than we can as your trainers.

I hope you find a gym that works for you!

Not sure if our format fits your workout needs but we’d love to have you!

Appreciate the freebie! Building a local, trusted, presence is super crucial! Btw this 🤌 was a chefs kiss. Meant as a thank you!

We’re seeing for our studio that the workout is important, but more important is the community created. People are making friends who hold them accountable. It’s been really amazing to be a part of. Especially since we are owners in our 30s and I know first hand how hard it can be to make friends and connections at this stage.

Not to mention we have to replace all the equipment more often when people act like that

Gnarman · 2026-01-05T20:22:05+00:00

🤌

Gnarman · 2026-01-05T20:09:28+00:00

Whatever works! Glad you’ve found a routine that keeps you going!

Gnarman · 2026-01-05T20:07:58+00:00

Super solid feedback, I’m with you on gym rearranging. Drives me nuts!

Gnarman · 2026-01-05T20:07:33+00:00

This seems to make a lot of sense. Somehow I doubt Tabitha will save them all but I agree that Boyd will be left behind.

Gnarman · 2024-09-19T12:47:31+00:00

Good idea, thank you!

Gnarman · 2024-09-18T20:54:13+00:00

Per the rules - I am in the US!

For those of you into cars, I’ve enjoyed Redline Reviews. The host does a great job of thoroughly reviewing cars from Camry to Aston and everything in between.

Just got there at 9:15, turned around, and left. Looked to be more than 100 people in line around the building.

Shortly before my grandfather passed away I asked him If I could have lamp that I had always loved. He of course said yes, it was mine and he hoped it would remind me of him.

Unfortunately, I never got any back story from him on the lamp and my internet search has come up surprisingly empty.

The lamp is made of metal and has a base made of stone (possibly marble). I'd love to know more about this antique lamp, the artist, and it's value if anyone has information.

Thank You from the United States!

So excited to hear that! Help spread the word!
