Weeks to transform your fitness
“At 54, I’m the fittest I’ve ever been.”
I honestly can’t recommend Alex Reader Fitness enough. The coaches are knowledgeable, supportive and genuinely invested in helping you reach your goals. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming — almost family-like. Since joining I’ve completed a Hyrox relay and I’m now training for Hyrox doubles in October. Something I never would have imagined doing before. If you’re thinking about joining, just do it.
