A workout just isn't a workout without music By Martin Gangnier, director of licensing, Re:Sound For many Canadians, good music goes hand in hand with a good workout. The right music can energize, uplift, and even improve a workout. The combination of music and working out is hard to beat. With high intensity fitness classes choreographed around the right number of beats per minute to pump up gym-goers, you can’t deny the value music brings. If you’re a fitness business owner or franchisee in Canada, you understand the value of recorded music. Whether you’re using recorded music...

 07 Dec 2017   Posted by Yosi Knecht

The new year is a time for reflection, and our industry is certainly one that benefits greatly from that time. Weight loss or getting in shape is the most frequently made resolution, leading to packed gyms in the month of January. Unfortunately, most of the New Year’s Resolution crowd is gone by February, and then it’s back to the same old thing.
