 May 23, REC Fitness event in support of Third Space Charity

For the second year in a row, Trainer Revenge will turn sweat into support for mental health programs in Âé¶¹¾«Ñ¡.

All proceeds from the May 23, fitness event will be used to support Third Space Charity, a Âé¶¹¾«Ñ¡-based non-profit that
provides accessible, pay-what-you-can counselling for adults aged 18 to 29.

The fundraiser is a way for people to turn the tables and give REC Fitness trainers a taste of their own medicine. 

REC Fitness members can 'purchase' individual exercises like burpees, lunges, sprints, hanging knee tuck-ups and skips, that the trainers will complete as part of a public workout at the studio's location on Clement Avenue. 

"I’ve been a long-time member at this gym, and I know first-hand how  it feels to be handed some tough love from these trainers. The desire for a little revenge is real — might as well put it to good use," joked Megan Woodruff, the executive director of Third Space Charity. 

Additionally, every dollar donated – up to $5,000 – will matched by an anonymous REC fitness member.

For more information on the event and to donate visit @recfitnesskelowna on Instagram and The Revenge Shop.
