The story behind the name
When I was 12 years old, I lost over 30 pounds. That experience changed everything for me and from that point on, my dream was to open my own gym.
The name Pursuit Fitness came from a scene in The Pursuit of Happyness that stuck with me for years. It captured exactly what I wanted this place to be — a space where people show up, do the hard work, and chase something bigger than where they started.
That's what Pursuit is. It's not just a name. It's the reason this gym exists.
