Are you looking for some extra motivation and tips on your health and fitness journey?

Wareing's Gym has been helping the beach get fit ever since the year 1960. Decades later, we’re still committed to the mission of being the best part of people’s day.

This podcast is a big step in supporting that mission.

Where The Beach Gets Fit is a platform for sharing stories and solutions to help our community overcome anything in their way and achieve all of their fitness goals. And more!

My name is Jake Wareing, 3rd generation owner and operator of this family-owned business.

Today, I am joined by Harrison Thrift, and we’re going to break down the motivation behind this podcast, what you can expect in future episodes, and the impact we hope to have.

Wareing's Gym has developed a culture of health, wellness, and camaraderie, where members can share their experiences, learn from one another, and find inspiration.

We also discuss the origins and objectives of the DEKA program, a comprehensive fitness assessment and competition that serves as a "yardstick" for gym members to measure their progress and challenge themselves.

The DEKA program provides that structure and motivation, allowing individuals to set their sights on a meaningful target and work towards it.

We are excited to have you join us as we share weekly stories to entertain and inspire you on your fitness journey. Listen in!
