The “Fix Your Movement” Pilot Program: We Need Your Feedback by Friday (or we have to delay)

Hey Bytown Family,

When we look at the gym floor every day, we see an incredible community of people pushing their limits. But we also see the reality of modern life: sitting at a desk all day takes a massive toll on the human body. Tight hips, nagging shoulder stiffness, and lower back aches are incredibly common, and they are often the exact things holding you back from hitting your next breakthrough in your training.

We wanted to build the ultimate solution to this. Over the last few months, we have been working hard behind the scenes to launch a brand-new Integrated Physio Program right here inside the gym.

This program bridges the gap between healthcare and fitness: you get to work on your specific rehab and movement patterns directly with a coach on the gym floor, under the explicit guidance of a licensed physiotherapist.

Even better? Because of how the program is structured, you can use your workplace health benefits to cover the cost.For the many members in our community who have great coverage through the government or tech sectors, this means you can finally fix those nagging issues at a convenient time and place, essentially on your insurance provider’s dime.

🚨 We Need to Know If You’re In (Deadline: This Friday)

To be completely transparent: I honestly thought people would jump at this opportunity instantly, but so far, sign-ups have been very slow.

Getting a program like this up and running properly takes a massive amount of back-end work, coordination, and legal structuring between our coaching staff and medical professionals. Because of that overhead, if we don’t have enough people express interest by this coming Friday, we will have to delay the launch indefinitely.

If you have been putting off fixing that sticky shoulder, clicking knee, or tight lower back, we need your help to save this program.

πŸ“‹ What We Need From You Right Now:

Please head over to physio.bytown.fit and fill out the quick interest form with your information.

Important Note: Filling out this form is not a financial commitment or a final reservation. It is simply a tool for us to measure if there is enough genuine interest in the community to justify the work it takes to launch the pilot.

If you want to move better, pain-free, and maximize the health benefits you are already paying for anyway, please take 60 seconds to fill out the form today.

Let’s fix these issues together so we can keep doing what we love for the long haul.
