Nutrition in All

It isn't every day a retail store finds ways to make more money, but in a new partnership with Precor Home Fitness Stores, journey gym is helping the fitness equipment retail chain increase how much it makes on its sales this holiday season. 

High end home fitness equipment can easily cost thousands of dollars and buyers are often savvy enough to push for deals to tip the purchase in their favor. Often this includes perks such as free shipping or installation, or even deep price discounts. 

Here is Erika Kloestra, who is an amazing mother, successful mommy blogger and inspiration to us all, appearing on RogersTV in Canada and speaking to daytime Host Jay Chagnon regarding her amazing transformation over the past year and a half. Erika, who began as a mommy blogger to review products that were great for kids, ended up being contacted by NutriSystem® regarding their interest in helping her lose weight as she was communicating her hope in doing so at that time.

Well, she started down the path of eating better and working out in order to begin her health journey. Fast forward in time and now Erika is eating well, taking supplements and is working out on the journey gym and doing other forms of exercise. Here is her appearance on RogersTV where she shares with Jay her progress and success:

This is truly an inspiration to all of us and especially to mothers who are looking to get back to a point where their energy levels are higher, their confidence is increased and their overall health is improved.

Perry here, VP of Client Services and Operations.  Last week wrapped up a 2.5 week visit to Taiwan. The purpose of the visit was to acquaint myself with the manufacturing process, install quality control protocols, connect with our manufacturer’s team in-country and ensure our container order to the Philippines would be delivered flawlessly.

I visited, with my counterpart at TSI Manufacturing, assembly and subassembly part manufacturing factories over the course of my time there.  It was quite an experience.  We have a winning team in Taiwan leading our manufacturing.  They have been bending over backwards to ensure journey gyms roll off the assembly line free of workmanship and manufacturing defects.

We were meeting one of our board members at a local Panera Bread Bakery-Cafe® this week. It was a critical meeting to talk about investments, company status and next steps. After the meeting, our board member left to the bathroom. As we were walking out of the restaurant, we heard someone cry out “journey gym guys!”. We turned and saw, but didnʼt recognize, this guy approaching us.

Now, Iʼm naturally bad at names. I mean, unless you I get to know you on a regular basis, itʼs not likely Iʼm going to remember your name. But I am pretty good (if I must say so myself) at remembering faces, but this guyʼs face only vaguely struck my memory chords. Was it his goatee? His 6-foot-plus height? His wry smile? I donʼt know, but something told me I had met this guy before. Only I couldnʼt place the face....or the name....until I looked down on his chest and saw his name on his shirt.

Holy smokes! It was one of our 70 Day Fitness Challengers and he was TOTALLY UNRECOGNIZABLE!
