What’s Your
In 2021, we asked our members the question, What’s Your Day One? Dozens of members submitted their stories, and we chose four lucky participants to follow during their journeys to turn One Day into Day One.
The four lucky participants will receive specialized support from FFC during the training period, free of charge, including:
- A personalized plan to achieve their goal!
- Personal training sessions with dedicated fitness professional
- A Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) and VO2 Max Test
- Nutrition counseling with a registered dietitian
- Complimentary access to FFC On Demand
- Access to our Recovery Lounge at FFC Gold Coast
- One 60-minute massage per month at the FFC Spa
- Additional perks may be included at FFC’s discretion, such as specific gear associated with goal, entry fees, injury assessment and prevention services and more
- Total package valued at $2,500!

Juan
Since joining FFC as a member in 2012, it has been Juan’s goal to learn how to swim. By learning to swim, Juan hopes to gain a new life skill and to have another way to stay active. At the end of the program, it is Juan’s goal to be able to swim laps on his own with proper form and technique.

Renu
After experiencing an unexpected loss in 2020, Renu is looking forward to turning One Day into Day One with this program. It is Renu’s goal to become physically and mentally stronger by running a 5k or 10k. By participating in this program and completing this goal, Renu hopes to be able to navigate a way forward and to be a role model of resilience for her daughter and family.

Emily
Inspired by her sister’s weightlifting journey, Emily began lifting weights in late 2019. Her goal for our “What’s Your Day One?” program is to squat 180 pounds and bench press 130 pounds. Emily is passionate about the benefits of strength training for women and is excited to see how this program will help her build her confidence.

Tom
After a tough couple of years, Tom is taking on the challenge of a Spartan Race. Completing a Spartan Race is something Tom has always wanted to do, and it’s important to him to train with a like-minded, supportive fitness community. Having a specific goal in mind helps Tom stay dedicated to his fitness routine, and he’s looking forward to the sense of accomplishment that will come with completing a Spartan Race.
Stay tuned to follow Tom’s journey. Episodes coming in Fall 2022!
