It Was a Very Good Year
You can pick up your holiday gift cards in
person, of course, by phone, or most
conveniently online on our websites.
Instantly, even on Christmas day...not
that you would wait that long...
Meanwhile, in the Spa...
Would you be surprised to learn that
more is on the way? You’d probably be
surprised if it wasn’t! We’re in the
process of planning a significant upgrade
to the locker room facilities, looking at
upgrades to the yoga and boxing/training
rooms, and checking out some very
interesting new equipment...we’re
always on the hunt!
The bottom line is that we’re committed
to keeping Fitness Incentive the very
best it can be. As the Beatles once put
it, “we’re getting better all the time.”
Best of Long Island, 2015
The Wisest Gift of All
Ok, I admit that I changed our holiday
gifting slogan just to see if you were
paying attention. Certainly a gift of
Fitness Incentive is an especially wise
one, but it is still, and forever shall
be, the “gift that always fits.” Having
said that, we take a lot of enjoyment,
as well as a little bit of pride, in our
annual holiday campaign. This year,
we’re featuring our take of the “Elf on
a Shelf” phenomenon with our own
mascot elf, who we have (cleverly)
named “Gymmy.” You’ve probably
seen him around the gym, in our
holiday emails and on our facebook
page. Maybe you’ve even taken a
“selfie with our elfie.” As our holiday
spokesperson, Gymmy wants me to tell
you this: the wisest gift of all is even
smarter this year, because we’re
giving you a free $20 gift card for
every $100 gift card you purchase.
And that goes for Incentives as well.
You are, of course, free to use your
$20 gift cards as you see fit, but
Gymmy recommends keeping at least
one for yourself. It is better, after all,
to give AND receive. At least according
If you’re looking to take it one step
further, health coaching may what you’re
looking for. Dr. Brown brings her 30 years
of clinical experience, with a special
focus on nutritional therapies, to great

better health that can reduce or even

Now that I’ve listed the slew of
improvements we’ve recently instituted,
it seems like a good time to shill for
some votes...Best of Long Island votes,
that is! The annual “BoLI” contest wraps
up on December 15th. You can vote once
a day at their website:

Long Island on our mobile app. We’re

2014 will be remembered fondly by the
Fitness Incentive family. For starters, it
was our 30th anniversary, and we
celebrated accordingly. And fittingly, in
light of that anniversary and in a spirit of
renewal (constant renewal, it often
seems), we re-invented much of your
gym. Over the last year or so, we’ve redone the front desk and
café, the Cycle Studio
and the nursery, we
completely replaced
the weight room circuit
equipment, re-did the
aerobic room (new floor
and decor—see photo)
and brought in ten new
treadmills...I feel like
I’m forgetting
something...oh, yeah,
we also completely
revamped our website,
as well as the spa’s
website, introduced our
mobile app, and, based
on your feedback,
remade large portions
of the world’s largest(?)
class schedule. Now
that’s how you
celebrate your anniversary!
While the gym has been abuzz with this
flurry of activity, the Spa certainly hasn’t
rested on its laurels. Not by a long shot.
