Past Events
The majority of our clients have fat loss as a primary goal. At GrassIron, we understand the importance of setting secondary goals. To that end, in 2008 we started organizing friendly, outdoor competitions (Hyde Park Games). Hyde Park Games provide our clients and gym members an opportunity to work toward a very specific, performance-based goal (with a deadline), and an opportunity to showcase all of their hard work. And perhaps most importantly, The Games help to create a real sense of support and community. The end result of all of this? Folks are much more likely to achieve their primary goal: fat loss. (And have a little fun along the way.)
