Are we changing????

The question of the day: Is Fitness Ridge going to change now that we are The Biggest Loser Resort at Fitness Ridge? I have been hearing this alot lately....guests who are concerned that we will no longer be what we are today.
Well, good news. Not only are we going to be what we are today, we are only going to get better with our partnership with The Biggest Loser. As many of you know from your multiple visits, we are always working on improving your experience here. I can think of many changes that have happened since I began working at Fitness Ridge in July of 2008. And I must say - all of them have been great and necessary. I don't think we will ever sit back and say, 'Wow....we are perfect. No need to change a thing." We are always listening to guests comments and suggestions trying to meet the needs of our guests while teaching them how to live a healthy lifestyle. So change is going to happen but not because of our new name - it will happen because we will always be striving to be better.
I can tell you the things that are going to stay the same:

• We will continue to offer a variety of hiking trails from stop sign to advanced allowing all guests to find a hike that fits their ability while always pushing them toward the next level.
• We will continue to offer classes that can be modified to any fitness level - whether this means running at 9.0 on the treadmill or walking at 2.5. As long as you are pushing yourself to that next level we will and can accommodate you.
• We will continue to have staff that love their job. If we truly believe in what we are doing and presenting, then our guests will know that our efforts are genuine. It also translates to smiling faces and a positive environment.
• We will continue to push you to your limits - physically, emotionally, etc. The Biggest Loser Resort at Fitness Ridge is a vacation from your day to day life, yes - but otherwise you are here to work, to improve, to sweat, to feel the power that being physically active gives you and to notice the difference in your body and mind when you feed them good, nutritious food.
• We will continue to offer wonderfully nutritious and delicious food. Chef Cameron and Emily (our Registered Dietitian) are continually working on offering well balanced, nutritional, tasty and varied meals

All in all, we will continue to be who we are today while always allowing for changes that will improve our program.

I suggest that all of you who wonder what we will be like now that we are The Biggest Loser Resort at Fitness Ridge to come and see for yourself.

I'm looking forward to seeing you.
