The Company You Keep

I spent 4 days a few weeks ago in Chicago at the Two Brain Business Summit. It’s a meeting of the minds for gym owners and coaches. It was an amazing group of entrepreneurs and fitness coaches from all over the world. There were 400 people total in attendance from 4 continents (North America, Europe, […]

Consistency Builds Success

“Success isn’t always about greatness, its about consistency. Consistent hard work leads to success. Greatness will come.” -Dwayne Johnson When is the last time you DIDN’T go “all in” on a bad thing? Like that cheat meal. Or when you turned off the alarm, 4 days in a row, instead of getting up to hit […]

Food for Comfort

3 Ways to Determine if you are Actually Hungry, #2 is the best. By Renee Gunn, MS, RDN, LD I could safely argue that one of the most powerful substances in this world is food. You might disagree, but hear me out. Food is a basic necessity for life. It brings people together and unites […]

For 5 years I've been searching for a gym where I could find people to help motivate me and support me to not give up. From my very first introductory class I felt that support and motivation at The Endurance Factory. It's easy to walk into a new gym and feel nervous, confused and scared. To be honest I felt that way walking into The Endurance Factory, it was something new and it was something scary but that feeling went away as soon as the class started. The other members pushed me and encouraged me the entire class; high fives coming at me from every direction and words of encouragement to not give up. If you are looking for encouragement, support and education on proper technique so you don't injure yourself than The Endurance Factory is the place you need to check out. I've tried every gym aspect over the past 5 years, at home workouts, $10 a month gyms, $500 a month trainer and NEVER in the 5 years of trying everything else has anything come close to what I get at The Endurance Factory. I've found my gym home.read more

Took my 1st class friday...looking for something different and more challenging! I was definitely out of my comfort zone bc of the unknown on several levels, but everyone was motivating and supportive and I pushed myself to be better each round or with the next rep! You can never compare your fitness level with someone else's bc we all have weaknesses. It's what you do with those weaknesses to make them strengths, which in my mind was just signing up for this workout and trying it! Thank you Ken and Tiffany for an experience I'd definitely come back to!read more

Joining was the best decision I have ever made. Workouts are brutal, but the coaches are supportive and knowledgeable. Made a lot of good friends and memories with the endurance factory crew. If you want to be the best, you have got to train with the best. This is THE best gym in Savage MD.read more

If you like group fitness where you feel challenged then this is the gym for you. If you like a great, encouraging, positive, fun atmosphere where you work hard and laugh harder then this gym is for you. I joined to train for a race and stayed because I actually liked the workouts. Its easier to get out of bed when you like the workouts and the environment. I like variety and this gym definitely provides that.read more

The Endurance Factory is like a second home to me. The coaches are amazing, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about your health and wellness. I have been going to this gym for over a year now and it has really evolved to fit the needs of a well rounded athlete. There are even more classes to choose from and nutrition coaching. I recently had an amazing yoga class with Coach Mary. I am always very tight, especially my hips. After last night’s yoga class, my hips feel amazing! I don’t know what she did but they have never felt this good! It was so awesome to have more mobility during my workout today. I am so grateful. Thank you, Coach Mary!read more

This gym has everything you are looking for! Ken and Tiffany are extremely knowledgeable and they are always willing to help with form or any other questions you may have. The classes are tough, but you receive motivation from the coaches and the other people taking the class. I can't remember the last time someone finished a workout alone, not because everyone goes the same pace, but because the people who finish early jump in and do extra reps. It's a small gym that provides a family atmosphere!read more

I am not a member yet but thats not to say i wont join in the future. I went to a drop im class and it was beyond great. I go to the gym about 4 or 5 times a week .... but struggle to sometimes...... find cardio workouts that dont bore me and ones where I can use weights. The owner was very nice and helpful and so were the other members. I will try to come back in the future.read more

A group of friends and I were looking for a place to build fraternity and to be physically challenged. When I learned about the Endurance Factory, I signed us all up for a 2 hour training session with Tiffany Palmer. Our expectations were exceeded at every level! With Tiffany's experience and great personality, and all of the cool equipment, we pushed the limits of our physical bodies and strengthened our brotherhood at the same time by encouraging each other every step of the way. It was an excellent experience. Thank you!read more

The people and the community at the Endurance Factory is what really makes this place. The coaches care so much about your progress, your safety, and helping you meet (and surpass) your goals! Every time I come into the gym I know I am going to leave exhausted, with a smile on my face. It also has a huge range in terms of equipment. I’ve been to a lot of gyms but none feel quite like this adult jungle gym. I cannot say enough good things about this place �read more

The Endurance Factory is a pretty cool place and the only true obstacle course racing gym I could find in the area. Ken is a cool guy and won't give you a high-pressure sales pitch. You can do month-to-month or choose a long-term contract for a lower monthly rate. During my 4 month search for a gym, I got really tired of other gyms pressuring me to lock into long-term contracts and upgrade to their personal training, specialty classes, etc. Ken just invited me to check out the gym, asked me what I was looking for and showed me what they have to offer. Very laid back, no pressure. Being an OCR athlete, Ken really knows his stuff and he's stocked the gym with everything you need to train for OCR racing. I usually take the 6 AM SGX class lead by Tiffany, which is always challenging but fun. She pushes us hard but knows our limits. She too is a world-class OCR racer, so it's pretty cool that I get to learn from the best. All the members I've met are super friendly and supportive of each other during the workouts. All in all, it's a great place! Given the small class size and the attention I get, it's a bargain for the price.read more

This gym is awesome! The classes are well planned and the open gym so much fun! It's obvious Ken and Tiffany truly love what they do. They are encouraging and motivating and ready to help you meet your goals. The atmosphere is so uplifting and positive. It's fun to see not just the coaches but members cheering on each other as they make their first rope climb, get further on the monkey bars or simply perfect their push ups. If you haven't checked out the Endurance Factory you are missing out!read more

I've been training with both Ken & Tiffany for a little while now, & I am so glad I found the Endurance Factory! They both genuinely care about me & my progress. They push me without judging or disheartening me (I think we've all had *that* trainer before... �). I always feel welcome & supported by not only Ken & Tiffany, but everyone else in the classes too. They help me modify exercises if I'm having issues with my long-standing injuries or if it's just a little past my current capability, and no one makes me feel bad or judged. I'm working harder than I've ever worked before, I love it, & am proud of the results I'm seeing already. I feel very lucky to have found a gym & coaches who have helped turn this Squishy Arts Nerd into an Athletic Arts Nerd. This is a great place to be & I really recommend it!read more

The class was awesome, but the open gym after is a ton of fun. If there are specific obstacles that you want to practice, the Endurance Factory has them, and if they don't, you had better believe that they'll figure out a way to install them. Can't wait to go back and try to scale that wall.read more

It's easy to find a trainer who can lead you through a workout session. What isn't easy, is finding a coach who will push you past your limits not only physically, but mentally as well. Ken Peluso knows what it means to endure. He knows how to tap into your inner athlete and competitor and he will make sure he conditions you, body and mind, to conquer the goals that you set for yourself. If you tell him that you want to accomplish something, guaranteed he'll get you there, just as long as you put in the work. His workouts are fun, out of the box, and they will keep you guessing. You'll find yourself trying to predict what he'll throw at you next. Like, literally. He actually may start throwing things at you. We all know that sometimes the hardest moments actually happen outside of the gym and Ken is always ready and available to offer his overabundance of knowledge and most importantly, his friendship. I have never worked with a coach like Ken before and I promise that neither have you.read more
