I know several people that have gone to The Way to help prepare for Spartan Races and Tough Mudders. I don't have much interest in those, but I do try to work out regularly. Normally I just go to the gym and do my own thing but I decided I'd give The Way a shot. I have to say it was an awesome experience!
Not only is Brandon extremely knowledgeable about fitness and workout regimes, he's very personable and able to connect with his clients. He's straight and to the point, but big on positive reinforcement and self motivation. There were definitely times during the class that I had to take a break and he was totally cool with it. He's a true believer in healthy body/ healthy mind/ healthy soul. It's not just about how many burpees one can do. During the class, we worked on a variety of full body exercises from battle ropes, to slam balls, to balance activities on bosu balls.
The gym itself is in a garage/industrial environment. There's a boxing ring and plenty of boxing related equipment (punching bags, etc.). None of that was used in our class. There's other equipment that's non boxing related as well (weights, rings, monkey bars, weight balls). We actually did a small portion of our class outside where we had to walk across the parking lot holding weights. I was told by another person that he often takes advantage of the environment when possible.
Overall I was very happy with my first class. I'm definitely going to be sore tomorrow. I appreciate the energy that Brandon brings to the class. He's very passionate about what he does, and it shows. If you ask him why he opened the gym, he'll tell you it's to help people. Just a great mentality. Prices are very reasonable and I will definitely be back for another class. read more
