Gloversville

The Fit Happens Personal Training and Fitness Studio has been at its location at 39 Arterial Plaza for more than a year. It began business in October 2002 at its previous location on Rte. 30A in Johnstown. Owner Mike Barker said the booming business is built on a friendly, judgment free atmosphere. New and exciting changes will be seen starting in February.
Fit Happens has something for everyone. "There's a little bit of everything here." Barker said. "There are four different workout areas as well as aerobics and spinning classes. Everyone can find something to fit their taste."
The first area of the four workout areas is the general gym that can accommodate a member of any age or physical condition. There are pin setting machines, free weights and dumbbells. This equipment can be used to perform a variety of work outs from body building to muscle toning and maintaining good health.
There is also a 15-piece circuit area. This part of the gym contains all pin setting machines which can be used for a complete total body workout. There is a stretching area used for warm ups, cool downs or abdominal work.
A third area of the gym boasts a world class cardio theater filled with treadmills, ellipticals, bikes and other cardiovascular equipment. The main attraction of the Cardio Theater is the 16 x 10 foot, larger than life, big screen TV complete with Dolby Digital surround sound for the members' viewing and listening
pleasure while they work out.
A "Women Only" room is the fourth section of the gym. This area is completely for women. Barker said this room is almost as large as the old Johnstown facility. The women's area is a complete gym by itself and offers pin setting machines, free weights and dumbbells. "For the women that want to step it up from the hydraulic-type 30-minute workout programs, this is the place to be," Barker said. Fit Happens is the
only gym in the upstate area that includes a room for women only. Women members appreciate this addition to the Gloversville location.
In addition to the four different workout areas, Fit Happens also has a half basketball court, with an area for badminton and pickle ball. There are 150 aerobics classes which include yoga, Pilates, Tai-Chi and weight training classes designed for sculpting and toning. There are also Impact, Intensity and Interval classes and 15-minute abdominal workout classes. J-Ride Spinning has its own room and offers between 40 to 55 classes per month. The spinning classes have special lighting and upbeat music which enhance this motivating workout. "An experience that shouldn't be missed," Barker noted. Descriptions and class schedules can be found on the Fit Happens Web site at www.fithappenstraining.com under the Aerobics tab.
Fit Happens' affordable cost and variable schedule make it an attractive option for families or individuals. It is open Monday through Thursday from 5 a.m.- 11p.m; Friday from 5 a.m. - 9 p.m.; Saturday from 7 a.m. - 3 p.m. and Sunday 7am - 2pm. "With the hours we are open, you can't say there's not time to work out," Barker barked. "It's less than a dollar a day to be a member at Fit Happens."
"For members that don't know exactly what they need, there are programs to help you get started. If you are shy or don't know where to begin, please call or stop in to make an appointment for a private, one on one consultation to discuss your fitness goals and a program that will work for you." Barker urged.
