As the new year kicks off, a fresh D1 Training facility is set to open in Fort Wayne in January or early February 2025. The gym’s leaders are sharing strategies to help people stick to their fitness-related New Year’s resolutions, a goal that proves challenging for many.
Why Fitness Resolutions Often Falter
While nearly 79% of resolutions focus on fitness, mental health, or dietary improvements, only about 9% of people manage to stay committed throughout the year, according to experts.
Gym General Manager Taylor Stanchin is aware of these statistics and emphasizes the need for personalized coaching to maintain motivation. “We’re here to support members from the moment they step into the gym,” says Stanchin.
A Personalized Approach to Training
D1 Training’s program stands out for its coach-led structure, which aims to provide constant support and guidance. Stanchin detailed the process:
- Warm-Up: Coaches ensure every member starts their workout safely.
- Performance Training: A focus on achieving individual goals with tailored exercises.
- Strength Section: Building endurance and muscle in a structured manner.
- Core and Cardio: Emphasizing balance and heart health.
- Cooldown: Ending each session on a positive and restorative note.
This step-by-step approach helps members stay engaged and avoid burnout.
What Sets D1 Training Apart
The facility’s “5-star workout” model integrates fitness coaching into every phase of the training process. Coaches are there every step of the way to ensure accountability and encouragement.
Stanchin added, “It’s not just a gym. It’s a community where we’re as invested in your success as you are.”
Anticipated Opening
The new facility is putting the finishing touches on its setup and expects to open its doors by January 2025, or early February at the latest. With its structured and supportive environment, D1 Training hopes to help Fort Wayne residents break the cycle of abandoned resolutions.
