At RSF Improve, we call ourself ‘the gym for people who don’t like gyms’.
We know it’s a weird tagline for what is, well…a gym.
But RSF Improve was founded on basic pillars upon which it still stands today, almost one year after opening.After working for years as Personal Trainers in commercial gyms, us coaches at RSF decided it was time for a change.
We grew to dislike the ‘big box gym’ environment as we felt it just didn’t offer enough to its members.
Here’s a few things we didn’t/don’t like about gyms, from a member’s perspective:
1. Queuing for equipment at peak times
How many times have you walked into a gym after work, taken a look around and thought “well bang goes that workout”, because every squat rack, bench and barbell is being used?
Or maybe you’re looking to get some cardio in on a treadmill, but there’s a queue behind it with people moaning and groaning if you spend more than the suggested 20mins on a piece of kit.
Maybe you’ve walked in, looked around and just walked straight back out.
