Step Up Your Game: GitFit Shoe Program
Are you ready to elevate your fitness journey? We’re excited to announce our Athletic Shoe Program, designed to help our members get the right footwear for their training needs!
We highly recommend members have a high quality pair of shoes dedicated to gym use and fitness training.
Why This Program?
Having the right shoes is crucial for performance, comfort, and injury prevention. We understand that quality athletic shoes can be a significant investment, which is why we’re here to help! Our program aims to cover some or all of the cost of shoes for our members.
- Support: Quality athletic shoes provide the necessary support for your arches and ankles, helping to prevent injuries.
- Cushioning: Proper cushioning absorbs impact during high-intensity workouts, reducing stress on your joints.
- Stability: Shoes designed for specific activities (like running, weightlifting, or cross-training) offer the stability needed for various movements, enhancing performance and safety.
- Traction: Good footwear ensures you have the right grip on different surfaces, which is crucial for maintaining balance and preventing slips.
- Comfort: Comfortable shoes enhance your overall workout experience, allowing you to focus on your performance rather than discomfort.
- Injury Prevention: Wearing the right shoes can help prevent common injuries, such as shin splints, plantar fasciitis, and ankle sprains.
How It Works
All active members of the GitFit Zone gym are eligible to apply.
Option A. Recipients of the award provide us with the shoe specifications up to $75 so GitFit can order them.
Option B. Award recipients can shop at a local retailer to try on shoes for the best fit. We will reimburse up to $75 of the cost.
The process is simple.
Step 1. Contact us via text or direct message (DM) on our social accounts on Facebook or Instagram with the following information:
- First and Last Name
- Shoe specifications (brand, model, sex, size, width, color)
- Explanation [optional - there is no requirement to establish a need for the program]
Example: Hey gitfit - this is Joe Jones and I could really use a pair of New Balance Men's 608 V5 Cross Trainers, White/Navy, 10.5 Wide shoes. I'm a student and unable to work due to school commitments.
Step 2. Our team will review your request and coordinate with you on next steps toward procuring your new athletic shoes!
Step 3. Once the shoes arrive, you'll have the opportunity to help promote the program to others or remain completely anonymous. The program can be 100% discrete and anonymous if you so choose.
