The PumpHouse was founded by me, #### #######(president and personal trainer) in August 2003. I knew that I wanted to start up a business of some sort, and I knew it had to be something that was of great interest to me. I loved working out and was on my way to becoming a certified personal trainer, so I knew opening a gym was what I wanted to do. I started on a business plan for the gym in late August, 2003. I knew that if I opened up a gym, it would have to be a gym that I would want to work out at, and basically be the kind of gym I would enjoy paying money to be a member at. My biggest worry was the name, The PumpHouse. It is a name I give credit to a friend of mine, but don't let the name fool you, it may sound intimidating, but The PumpHouse is a non intimidating environment, where anyone from the ages 16 and up can work out at and feel right at home.
One thing I always looked for in a gym was a place where there were lots of equipment, and an environment where I felt comfortable, and knowing that the equipment was safe to use was definately an asset. Also I didn't want to pay an arm and a leg just for a membership. But one of the biggest things I wanted in a gym, was feeling accepted at the gym. I wanted the people working there to acknoledge me in more then just saying "Hello". I wanted them to know who I was for being there as often as I went. Also to even know who owned the gym would be a bonus, not to know them personally, but even to know their name, just so I knew that if I signed up at their gym, I would be able to consider myself as a member of their gym, not just another number to add to their list of members known more as dollar signs then people.
If these things that I look for in a gym are the kind of things that you look for in a gym, then look no further, because The PumpHouse is the place for you. I am not only the President of the gym, but as well I am fully involved in everything that goes on in my gym. I'm a certified personal trainer, as well as a certified nutritionist, and I will personally help you seek out your goals in fitness. You can contact me or any other staff member for more details about memberships, rewards for our members, or anything else you need to know about concerning The PumpHouse.
The PumpHouse Gym is your gym. You can have a say and help me out in bettering this gym so it will benefit us all. The pump is the feeling you get from working out (whether it's doing cardio, lifting weights, or even stretching), and a house is where a family lives together. So the PumpHouse Gym is a place where we can all get along together while working out.
