Retail business owner, Bal, has taken the exciting step into the health and fitness industry with the opening of the brand-new UBX Boxing + Strength gym in Windsor. This venture marks his first foray into the fitness sector.
Explaining his decision to diversify and expand his business portfolio through a fitness franchise with UBX, Bal commented: “I’ve never been involved in the fitness industry from a commercial aspect before which is why I went down the franchise route – UBX was a new concept that really appealed to me.”
Bal collaborated with experienced UBX franchisee, Neil Rushby, to bring this state-of-the-art gym to Windsor. The gym is managed by club manager, Courtney, and supported by a team of skilled coaches.
Located in the iconic Windsor arches beneath an old railway bridge, UBX Windsor is the 7th UBX gym to launch in the UK & Ireland contributing to the global network of over 100 UBX gyms across 7 countries.
Describing how it feels to be part of this movement and to have opened his first UBX gym, Bal explained: “I’m absolutely elated! It’s taken a while to make everything come to fruition, but I can undoubtedly say that I’m so happy with everything and how it has turned out.
On choosing Windsor as the location for his new venture, Bal explained: “There is a strong demographic of people in the area who I felt would align with the UBX concept easily. People here really appreciate their health, well-being and actively make time for themselves. There’s a real sense of community here – something that I think is what makes a UBX club different.”
Bal highlighted what Windsor residents can expect from their newest boutique fitness facility: “UBX Windsor will remove all of the usual barriers that make people feel out of love or lose enthusiasm for their gym. If their work meeting overruns, it’s not a problem, just turn up on your own schedule because there are no class timetables to adhere to!
Don’t want to do the same workout or can’t think of a new routine? No problem – just turn up and we’ve already laid on a circuit for you which changes every day!
Not sure if you are doing the exercise correctly, or if you are pushing yourself enough? Don’t worry – our coaches are here to give you 1-on-1 support every workout and to guide you through the circuit!
I believe I’ve assembled a great team of managers and coaches, all of whom have boxed in the ring and will help you reach your goals – whatever you are fighting for!”
