No one tells Kal Gunay he has to do it like everyone else. He doesn’t, and he wouldn’t. At Boca Raton Fitness, he is re-writing the book on healthy living, exercise, and nutrition. This is not like any of the gyms I’ve ever gone to for a few weeks before giving up out of some nameless kind of frustration that things just aren’t right. But that’s because warehouse gyms and “fitness centers” that are packed full of people socializing and crowding regular people out aren’t about healthy living and thinking, they’re about selling an image. And my image of myself isn’t of a person who wants to do dead lifts of Olympic-class weights, or of a person who goes to the gym to meet someone to date. I wasn’t sure what my image was, but Boca Raton Fitness helped me find it for myself: I’m a person who likes being part of a group “boot camp” with a personal trainer or two helping us through individual and varied workouts. I like being educated by guest chefs in a real kitchen on how to cook healthy meals for myself that taste good and are the kind of food that I like to eat. I like going through the grocery store with a nutritionist and learning how to see through the promises on the labels to real nutrition and good food. I like feeling good, and I like taking care of my health. I like Boca Raton Fitness, and I’m glad Kal doesn’t let anyone tell him how to run a good gym. He knows.
