Jennifer Hunter • July 17, 2026

Do you need help with fitness or nutrition? Or maybe you're already a member and know friends who could use some support? Either way, we've got the perfect event for you.

Join us for our FREE Community Weekend at Redemption Fitness: 808 North Main Street, Clover, SC 29710

Event Schedule: Friday, Dec 5: Free workouts at 5am, 6am, 8am, 12pm, 4pm and 5:30pm. Saturday, Dec 6: Free workouts at 8am and 9am. Sunday, Dec 7: Free workouts at 9am and 10am.

All workouts are open to the public — no experience required. Bring a friend, bring a family member, bring a neighbor. This is your chance to experience what Redemption Fitness is all about in a welcoming, no-pressure environment.

What to Expect

Every class will be coached, scalable, and fun. Whether you've never set foot in a gym or you've been training for years, you'll fit right in. Our coaches will make sure of it.

After each class, stay for some free food and a chance to connect with the community. Ask questions, meet coaches, and see firsthand why our members keep coming back.

Why We Do This

We believe fitness changes lives — but only if people have access to the right environment and the right support. Community Weekend is our way of opening the doors wide and saying: this place is for you. Come see for yourself.

Spots are limited. Sign up today to reserve your place in a class. We can't wait to see you there.

Anyone Can Provide a Workout. But a Coach Can Help You Change Your Life.

This week, our class members spent part of class working on the power clean, a technical Olympic lifting movement that requires coordination, timing, strength, and skill. Instead of simply handing everyone a barbell and telling them to get to work, our coaches created drills and broke the movement down into smaller pieces. We used drills, provided individual feedback, reinforced proper positioning, and coached athletes through the process with patience and precision.

People Need People: Why Mentors & Coaching Matter More Than We Think

By Jennifer Hunter • July 17, 2026
Last weekend, I attended my first Two-Brain Business Summit. For those who don't know, it's an annual conference hosted by one of the largest business mentorship organizations just for gym owners in the world. A few years ago, when I first signed up for mentorship with them, I was skeptical. It was going to be a large investment for my small business, but something was telling me to give it a try.

The Most Overlooked Financial Strategy You're Ignoring: Investing in Your Health

If you are in your 20s or 30s and thinking, "I'm young so I will worry about my health later," or "I will start when something actually feels wrong," you are choosing the most expensive version of care.

Never Compare Yourself to Your Younger Self

By Jennifer Hunter • July 17, 2026
Recently I was talking with a friend in the health and fitness industry about life, the gym, and how training changes as we get older. As we discussed the differences we often see between people who train and those who do not, especially in their abilities and overall health, we also acknowledged how many people who have trained for years tend to give themselves a hard time as they age and sometimes quit altogether because they can no longer perform the way they used to.
