Caveat: This is a good gift for someone you know wants it or loves a workout challenge.  Before you buy this for someone, ask yourself “Will the recipient think I’m calling them “fat” for giving them a gift certificate to workout?”

Need something for someone who is already a Motiv member?

Flyer Expiration Date Extended

Posted by: Brian on December 7, 2011

You may have received a flyer in the mail from us this past week that looked like this:

We all know how the Chicago mail works. Very slowly. We mailed this out back in October and it is just now getting delivered — 5 weeks later.

Because this flyer was delievered so slowly, we are extending the expiration date of this offer until 12/31/11.

If you are ready to get started, book your first workout now and beat the 12/26/11 price increase.

Please note: because of the holidays, we’ll have limited availablity for our “test-drive” workouts the week before Christmas (12/19-12/24). We’ll be back in full force beginning 12/27/11.

Early Warning: Our prices are going up December 26th

Posted by: Brian on November 29, 2011

December is busy, but why get started on your New Year’s Resolution early?

Here’s a good reason: our prices are going up on December 26th.

If you are current Motiv client, you don’t have to worry. Your rate is locked in and will never go up as long as you keep your membership current. This is our commitment to you for being our client.

After Christmas, our monthly rates for a 12 month unlimited semi-private personal training package will increase $20 per month to $219/month. The 3 month unlimited semi-private rates will increase to $279/month. Our $59 joining fee remains the same.

So, if you want join Motiv for less than $200/month, give us a call today at 773.675.1420 or sign up for your first workout online today! You still even have time to try a 30-day trial membership if you are on the fence.

Please don’t wait for a sale or a Groupon…we don’t think those are fair to our current clients

An important point to note is that our club philosophy is to treat every single member the same every single day. This means we try and protect the integrity of our club by not making deals or offering wild discounts that are available to some members and not others. And, while we can always help a member obtain more service and support if they need it, we will never discount the basic membership plans. If you want to save money, join before December 26th!

Korean Beef Stir-Fry

Posted by: Kate on November 4, 2011

Again, borrowing from my favorite magazine!  I made a couple of small changes to the recipe.  I used baby bok choy instead of spinach, only because I needed to use the bok choy.  I also added green onions (a.k.a. scallions) because I love them!  Please note that this recipe is for 2 servings.  So if you are cooking for more, plan accordingly.  For all of you cooking for just one, you have leftovers for lunch tomorrow!
