You’ve watched as so many members of New Image Fitness 24/7 have lost weight and kept it off through TLS Weight Loss Solution.

Well now is your chance to try the TLS program and not only lose weight, but have a chance to win big money!

Just announced, TLS Weight Loss Solutions is running a $10,000 weight loss challenge!  The name of the program is the 2012 TLS Find Your Fit Challenge, and you can learn more about it by viewing the frequently asked questions or by contacting your Personal Trainer or TLS Coach.

All registrations must be received prior to March 1st, so hurry and enter today!

This week marked week 1 of a new 8 week functional training course being offered out of New Image by Team MoJo.  And judging by the comments left by the Team MoJo “recruits” they not only had a lot of fun but worked out extremely hard.  I saw comments like “Sore as hell but ready for more!” and “Sore!!!!!! But I love it!!”.

Congrats to Team MoJo for trying something new and knocking it out of the park!  For anyone who wasn’t able to make it into this sold out class, they are considering offering a second one if they receive enough interest.  Head on over to Team MoJo’s website and add your name to their mailing list if you are interested!  They would be glad to have you – after all, misery loves company!

Happy New Year Everyone!

Effective today, we are going to be staffed more hours to accommodate the increased usage at the gym during winter months.  We are adding Tuesday and Wednesday evening staffed hours.

Our new hours are as follows:

• Monday – Thursday:  9am – 11am AND 5pm – 7pm
• Friday: unstaffed
• Saturday: 9am – 11am
• Sunday: unstaffed

Please remember to bring a clean pair of sneakers to the gym during winter months.  Also, a reminder that everyone must swipe his or her keytag when entering the gym (even during staffed hours).  If you lost your keytag or your keytag no longer works, please stop by the front desk for a replacement during staffed hours.

Just in time for the New Year, 2011 TLS Weight Loss Solution Coach of the Year Carin Roberts will be offering a free weight loss and nutrition seminar.  Come to New Image Fitness 24/7 on Sunday, January 8th at 11am and set yourself up for success in 2012!  Click here for the seminar invitation.

This week we completed some upgrades to the women’s changing room – which included repainting the walls and ceiling, new carpeting, new energy efficient lighting, and improved air circulation.

One of the biggest changes we made is the installation of new electronic locks on the lockers.  These locks will allow you to lock up your belongings without having to use a key.  You just put your items in the lockers equipped with the electronic lock, turn it to the locked position, enter a 4 digit code, and wait for the red light to light up indicating that the locker is locked.  To unlock the locker, just enter the 4 digit code again and the locker will unlock, allowing you to remove your items.  At that point, your code is erased and the locker is ready for the next person to use it.

For now, we have only equipped the top row with the electronic locks which will give everyone a  a chance to get used to how the lock works.  If you would prefer not to lock up your belongings, just leave them in one of the lockers that doesn’t have a lock installed.  Please note that the electronic locks will only remain locked for up to 2 hours – after that it will automatically unlock.  This feature will allow the locks to be used only for use while in the gym and not for overnight or long term storage of belongings.

Next up on our list of changes at the gym is to do a remodel of the men’s locker room.  While these changes may seem small, they are part of a bigger picture plan that is going to allow us to add some new equipment in the very near future!  Stay tuned for that …
