Grayton Beach Fitness was created in response to a growing demand for a safe and intelligent approach to fitness in a fun environment. We strive to do this by providing education in the areas of:
- Physical Fitness
- Nutritional Awareness
- Stress Management
Grayton Beach Fitness is committed to providing the best Personal Training services along the Gulf Coast.
Our facilities have been in place since 2000 and our owner has been involved in fitness along the Emerald Coast between Destin and Scenic 30-A since 1994.
One of the things we focus on is building a person's active lifestyle versus focusing on bigger biceps and shoulders (Unless of course, that is your primary goal.) As your activity level increases, you will increase the calories burned, become stronger and more mobile, thus increasing the quality of your life significantly! Working out at Grayton Beach Fitness will enhance your life, rather than take it over.
A full-featured facility
Grayton Beach Fitness is a fully-equipped fitness facility with 24-hour access available offering personal training, athletic conditioning, weight loss, fitness evaluations, body composition assessments, consultations, orientations, blood pressure checks, Pilates, circuit training, and BOOTCAMP classes.
Our facility is open 24 hours a day and offers personal training, TRX TEAM Training, and 6 televisions. When you come here, you are sure to find the perfect equipment for your needs, since we have all these machines:
