Since Apollo opened back in 2011, we have been competitive at local and regional competitions. This past year we missed qualifying a team for regional’s by just 3 points. While we understand it’s not the goal for 99% of us to compete in the sport of fitness, there are many who wish to take their fitness to that next level. We all take pride in our competitors and how they stack up against the best in the world. For this purpose we have revamped our competitor program and qualification process.
On August 26th, we will hold our first Apollo Combine. This will consist of 11 different tests (go to members page) counted and recorded by one of our judges. After the combine is complete our coaches will select a group of dedicated athletes to work with through the 2018 season. Keep in mind this is a try out. There are no predetermined standards to automatically qualify you for the class.
We invite anyone interested in being a part of next year’s regional team or individual competition. Everyone is welcome to come watch as our athletes throw down and give it their all. See you there!

Hello and welcome to the Sunday blog! I often have conversations with athletes about how often we find ourselves in a seated position. The majority of people sit for their entire work day. This can take it’s toll on your body physically. Our jobs may require us to sit for a great deal of time, but there are MANY things we can do to create better, healthier habits at the work place. Today’s article will give you some recommendations that will do a world of good.
