Well, we are one month down in 2019! As one year ends and another year begins we are all super focused on our New Year’s Resolutions for the next year. Many of those resolutions seem to include getting in better shape, losing a few pounds or working out more. Each year it seems that our Sweet Home is putting a better focus on ways to stay in shape. This year there was even an awesome way to kickstart these goals with the BHM WELLNESS PASSPORT. This passport could be purchased for $50 and is good from January 21-February 8, 2019. It is an awesome way to checkout some of the latest gyms in the downtown community. That way you can decide which one will be right for you. Here are a few of those gyms that were showcased, and also a few others—to help keep your momentum going on those resolutions. Maybe 2019 will be the year that these goals, just become habits.
