Events
Not only does the FITT 60126 Family work hard together, but we play hard together too. Check out the events below for a sampling of the activities we have hosted over the years. Visit our Facebook and Instagram pages to see our most recent events.
Summer Challenge: FITT’s 10-week workout/fitness challenge pitting one team of FITT members against another. Each week consisting of a weeklong fitness challenge involving rowing, biking, running/walking, step-ups, glute bridges, pull-ups, dead hangs, crunches, planks, and everyone’s favorite, burpees. While the challenge was very competitive, when it was over, the teams got together to celebrate their collective accomplishments!
a
Feed My Starving Children: For the last two years, more than 20 FITT members have spent several hours preparing and packaging food for assisting the Feed My Starving Children organization.
a
Mother’s Day: A workout tailored specifically for FITT moms and their kids. And later, some “alone time” for just the moms.
a
Support Our Troops: Class participants wear some form of camo apparel, and some even complete a “Murph” workout. The Murph is named after Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy who died in the 2005 Afgan war. The workout consists of a one mile run, 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, and 300 air squats, all while wearing a weighted vest (14 lbs. for women / 20 lbs. for men).
a
Bring your Dog to FITT Weekends: Just like it sounds, bring your dog to FITT on the weekends so you can work out with them, or let them play with other dogs and members.
a
Going Away Party: A party at Tannins in downtown Elmhurst to celebrate the departure of a long-time member who was moving to another state. While she was leaving the FITT studio, she was not leaving the FITT family. Because once you’re a member of the FITT family, you’re always a member. There is no escaping it!
a
Burn Before the Bird: FITT’s annual Thanksgiving morning workout and social gathering. It always begins with a challenging team workout, like row a marathon (42,195 meters), and ends with some food, drinks and friendship. An awesome way to kick off the holiday season!
a
Christmas Workouts: FITT’s annual Christmas-themed workouts based on the song “the 12 Days of Christmas”, but substituting, burpees, pushups, thrusters, etc. for the drummers drumming, maids-a-milking, lords-a-leaping, etc. No two Christmas themed workouts are ever the same!
a
Christmas Party: FITT’s Annual Christmas party, hosted at the studio and enjoyed by all. Just like the Christmas themed workouts, no two Christmas parties are ever the same!
a
Member Milestones: Celebrations for our first two members to attend 3,000 classes. Complete with embroidered gifts of a FITT 60126 golf bag and FITT 3000 shoes to recognize the momentous achievements.
