This is probably the best gym in morganton. The upstairs has tread mills, weight equipment and the…read more"normal" gym environment. I say normal because most industry gyms have gone to having smoothie bars, TVs, and group class exercises... the down stairs however - where I hung out during my stay - has a crossfit feel. They have functional fitness classes and most everything there to do a crossfit type workout (they don't yet have climbing ropes). But all that isn't what makes this hometown gym so great. What makes it great are the people everyone is friendly, kind, and professional at what they do. The staff also work with their customers to match them with the right plan for them. So, if you are looking for a hometown friendly customer first type of gym APL is the place to go.

As with any good coach, Anissa's goal is NOT to give you advice, but to help you see the the incredible wisdom that lies within each of us and then gently lead you into the direction of coming to that epiphany on your own. She's very generous with her time and resources. I always feel like I walk away with some sort of challenge, even if that "challenge" is just to relax about my life. Anissa approaches all of life and her coaching business from a holistic perspective. She's open to looking at all parts of body, mind, spirit and soul and finding ways to see the WHOLE move forward, not just one individual part. She has a gift for being an empathetic listener as well as a strong encourager. With her help last fall, I was able to finally break through some fears and pursue a dream of traveling abroad for 3 months. I'm very grateful that Anissa has been a part of my life in this season!

For years, my doctor stressed the importance of strength training, and I always found an excuse to put it off. I'm so incredibly grateful that I finally took the leap--and especially that I did it with Katja's urging and guidance. She is an absolutely incredible trainer. She's not just knowledgeable and safety-focused; she is genuinely energetic and inspiring, and she actually makes the process fun. Katja has a knack for knowing exactly how far to push me, helping me achieve things I honestly didn't think my body was capable of. In just over 1 month, I already feel much stronger and more in tune with my body overall. I wish I had done this years ago!

Huge thanks to Katja and the entire PeakFit staff for creating such a welcoming and motivating environment.
