BODYROC FitLab Opening in Avon; New Member Promotion Launched

Fifty new members receive more than $1,000 in goods and services to award-winning BODYROC FitLab in Avon.

In preparation of its new studio opening in Avon, BODYROC FitLab will be giving away more than $1,000 worth of custom products and services to each of the first 50 people who make a one-year commitment to the BODYROC Xperience. These “Founding 50” members will receive discounted monthly dues for unlimited training, custom BODYROC boxing gloves, hand wraps, and an exclusive founding member T-shirt, as well as access to both the West Hartford and Avon locations. The intense circuit-style group personal training studio, which combines weight training, self-propelled treadmills, and heavy bag boxing, will open in January 2018 at 260 West Main Street, across from the Walmart Plaza.

Former Sony BMG songwriter to the stars (P. Diddy, 50 Cent and Jennifer Hudson) and amateur boxer Shaun Chambers founded BODYROC FitLab, an innovative fitness concept fusing a 50-minute signature workout (where you can burn up to 1,000 calories) with live DJ entertainment and dance club lighting. Chambers combined his love for the arts and the power of music with his passion for fitness to create a motivational approach to building lean muscle, melting away fat, and transforming body composition. In 2016, he was one of only 12 finalists in the national search for America’s Most Inspiring Trainer title, sponsored by Well+Good magazine and Reebok. His original BODYROC FitLab is located at 641 New Park Ave in West Hartford, and was named “Best Place to Workout” and “Best Gym” in Hartford Magazine’s Best of 2017.

When asked why people should choose BODYROC, Chambers replied, “There is no other place where you will receive a better combination of group personal training, entertainment and a community of amazing supporters of all fitness levels. Everyone can be successful here because each member holds each other accountable. As much as it is hard work, the BODYROC Xperience keeps you engaged and excited to come back.”
