With the right support and coaching, the answer is: absolutely, positively “yes.”
Jackson, Mich – Could $1 really change your life? Cindy Keen is living proof that it could. In just two years, Keen lost 258 pounds and, last year alone, she ran more than two dozen 5K races. Dave Mathis is another example. Born with a rare genetic disorder which prevented him from walking until he was seven years old, Mathis is now competing in all sorts of athletic events while inspiring others. The same is true of Leslie Hoffman. Once depressed and significantly overweight, Hoffman recently lost nearly 200 pounds – and she’s now loving life and enjoying time with her family.
What do they all have in common? They each took a courageous first step and sought help from a supportive local gym where they learned how to take control of their lives.
“Taking that first step is the hardest part,” said Steve Klobucar and Kyle Grimes, certified personal trainers at Anytime Fitness in Jackson, Michigan. “After that, it gets a whole lot easier. The key to making big changes is recognizing and appreciating little victories. Dozens of members of our gym have dramatically improved the quality of their lives – one day at a time. Getting started can be scary. But, with the right type of coaching and support, anything is possible.”

To help new members get started on the right track, Anytime Fitness is offering a “Join for $1” special deal, until January 15th. Additionally, every new member will receive a free get started exercise and nutrition plan and two personal training sessions included with their membership. Also all live and virtual classes are included with the membership. Members have access to the club 24/7 and also over 3,000 other Anytime Fitness locations.
One-dollar at a time, all of the initial sign-up fees collected during Anytime Fitness “Join for $1” campaign will be donated to the Cascades Humane Society. The club will add $9 to every $1 donated by a new member to the Cascades Humane Society, a total of $10 per new member. “Helping animals is something our staff, members and I feel very passionate about – we all have pets and the Cascades Humane Society was one of the charities we have been wanting to contribute to this year,” said club owner Amanda Rainsberger.
“Life is a journey,” said Rainsberger “Where you go and what you do is up to you. But, if you’d like to get started on a new path, our gym is a great place to get started. A year from now, you’ll be glad you did. We are certainly glad we opened a little over a year ago as we feel we have positively impacted the local community.”
