Snap Fitness keeps resolutions in check
If the motivation to stick with New Year’s resolutions is fading, Chandler Snap Fitness is helping members stay on track and lose unwanted holiday pounds
by participating in a nationwide, eight-week, $10,000 Lose Weight, Feel Great Challenge Thu., March 1 through Mon., April 30. “This can be the most frustrating time of year to reaching your fitness goals,” says Chandler Snap Fitness owner Jon Moore.
“The initial excitement from New Year’s has worn off ... We make it easier by offering a nearby club that’s open 24 / 7 so you can work out on your schedule, and our month-to-month memberships remove a lot of hesitation.” The $10,000 Lose Weight, Feel Great Challenge is free for all Snap Fitness members to participate. Last year Moore says the
average member lost seven pounds and “found the experience to be really fun.” The competition includes regular, private weigh-ins and local and national prizes for the biggest losers. Participants could win
$250 just for taking part, and Snap Fitness Chandler is offering up to a $100 prize for the top three local participants. In addition, to help people get started on their path to better results, the club is also offering two new memberships for the price
of one in February and March. Snap Fitness Chandler is at 990 E. Riggs Rd., on the northwest corner at McQueen in Chandler. For more information or to
