We use the Mindbody Online app that you can access our training schedule and sign yourself out and in when life happens! Our members can make up missed sessions too. They also have access our amazing on-demand online workouts.

12. Will I experience muscle soreness?

Yes, most likely. When you start to resistance train this is common. To help with muscle soreness, we start everyone on the conservative side instead of pushing to the max. We do foam rolling and other strategies to also help . That being said, if you’re not sore its not a bad thing (it doesn’t have to hurt to be good) so make sure you communicate with your coach on how you’re feeling if unsure.

No. Our facility is a great open warehouse space. That being said, it does NOT have frills like showers, saunas, or changerooms with TVs. Come dressed in your workout clothes if possible and get ready to bring it! We do have very nice bathroom facilities.

16. Can I bring my child?

The short answer is no (if a child is under 12 years of age). We have an official Fukumoto Fitness Kids Policy based on what the law requires that we are happy to send you. It centres around legal liability, safety, distraction for both parents and staff, among other things.

17. If I'm pregnant can I join? How soon after pregnancy can I join?

 Yes! There is ample research that recommends healthy those who are pregnant, regarldess if they are in a fitness routine or not, to start or continue being active in pregnancy while listening to your body. You can start anytime. Keep your doctor informed of your fitness routine and we require you to disclose the information so that we best support you in your workouts.  Know that we have safely trained dozens of women while pregnant and helped them ease back into a smooth return to training afterwards.

18. What is Week 5?

Every 5th week is a shift in focus in training which still includes workouts but they are less intense. There is also a mobility day, and some workshops. There may also be functional re-screens 

​

Most of our clients train 12 months a year and so building in a different pace and focus helps periodize our program giving better rejuvenation and consistency.
