Hey Foundry Fam! As we continue on our recovery plan, our goal has been to take one small step closer to working our way back to our original programming every month. The following changes will be in effect beginning NOVEMBER 1ST!
1. All classes will be indoors with additional stations set up right outside of the gym for those who do not yet feel comfortable stepping inside the gym.
2. Members will now be able to take up to 4 classes per week.
3. Additional class times will be added on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
As always, thank you so much for your continued support and patience as we make our way back home ❤️🙏
Stay Strong,
Team Foundry
Hearing bad news daily is becoming a trend in 2020. But TODAY I have some great news to share with you! We are proud to say that at Foundry Fitness we have had ZERO cases of Covid. We have diligently worked to provide you with a safe space to workout. Between Simon and myself we have conducted over 1,000 classes in person during this tumultuous time.
So, if you've been afraid that you can't come to the gym to workout for fear of catching COVID please know that we are doing our absolute best to keep you safe and clearly our efforts are working! If you previously paused your membership we hope that given our ongoing success rate at keeping COVID at bay, you will reconsider becoming an active member again, and invite your friends and family into our safe space.
To resume your membership simply text Eric with your name and the word RESUME to 240-478-0253

Look who's back in the house! For those of you that don't know, Edna fractured both of her wrists about 6 weeks ago. But that didn't stop her, or discourage her. She's already back in here killing it! If that's not motivation, I don't know what is! Edna Josell you are a true warrior, and inspiration to everyone! We are so proud of you!!👏👏💪❤️

The final count is in! 8,450 pairs of shoes collected for the 2020 Rukundo International Shoe Drive!! We are thrilled that Foundry Fitness was able to contribute and meet our goal of 1200 pairs, thanks to all of you. We are so incredibly appreciative of everyone’s support. Shout out to Andrea and all her amazing volunteers for all the hours they dedicate to helping this organization!
Things are looking hopeful! One of our members already got the covid vaccine from Novavax 2 months ago, and he has had zero side effects! :)
COVID TRAINING
Working out with a mask on sucks in the beginning, but then you evolve and after a couple weeks you get used to it and your conditioning skyrockets! Its kinda like those oxygen deprivation masks that hardcore athletes use to increase their conditioning.
I call it Covid training, and I encourage you to workout with your masks on even at home. Because god forbid you do get covid and worst case you are one of the low percentage severe cases, you are training your body to perform with less oxygen so you will be prepared!

Foundry Family- I am once again calling on you for the support of one of our own members battling cancer. Rachel is such a kind person and is always the first to support community efforts. She has set up a meal train. If you can find it in your hearts to help and have the means, I know she would be most grateful.

We are so grateful to you, our Foundry Family. This has been a hard year for all of us and everyone has been affected in different ways. For me, exercise has always been my medicine and I'm sure for so many of you. I am so happy to say, It is because of you that we are still here when so many of our friends in the fitness community have had to shut down. Thank you to each and everyone of you. Now do ten burpees 😉
Hey everyone! If you are able to, please sign up for the meal train for Rachel!
