Powerhouse Gym originally i built 20 years ago actually
it wasn't powerhouse at the time
it was 5th st fitness
and so it's been here for a long long time
actually brought a lot of lively
you know movement to downtown at that time there wasn't much going on
now that it's powerhouse we're bringing in about five hundred people a day
there's never a day that's the same
it's always something new we have a great cast of characters here
um... but most of all i absolutely love getting people healthy i mean this is
something if I could give away I certainly would because I know
it makes people better
it makes them better mentally physicaly spiritually emotionally all of it
it's a real package it's something that people need to do
as a lifestyle you know not something just to get fit
but to do for the rest of their lives just like getting up in the morning
and brushing your teeth
our staff has been awesome we've got an all-women management team
which is fantastic
uhm... really works well we work well together we enjoy each other company
um... not most of the management is here at least ten hours a day
so that's important that we have to have a good team and make sure that everybody
gets along well
just like when the recession hit and everyone was having trouble
we were brand new
I reopened this place like i said in 2007
so right then we were brand new
and we were just...
the timing was just so difficult for us
because the recession hit we were trying to get on our feet
SAFE-BIDCO kind of came to the rescue for us
it was really a good thing
I've known a couple of the people that worked at SAFE-BIDCO
and they knew me over the years and what i've done in business prior
so they gave me the vote of confidence that i actually needed
to get that loan that helped us go
since the reset
that happened for us with SAFE-BIDCO we've blown up every year
we've seen our production climb and climb and climb
and were very very grateful and very happy
that things are coming out of that
