Steel Athletics motivates fitness enthusiasts with weekly Instagram Live workouts

Steel Athletics’ Coach Joe leads a recovery workout on Thursdays at 8:30 a.m., while Coach JJ leads a dumbbell workout on Saturdays at 10:30 a.m.

Steel Athletics suspended group fitness activities in May because of the island lockdown. They have since started offering services to their members with safety precautions in mind.

Instagram Live workouts were a great way for the Steel Athletics coaches to motivate themselves and their members to continue their fitness journey despite the pandemic.

“I wanted to provide a workout where we can all still be together and be supportive. I know how it is to try to self-motivate when no one’s around, it’s hard,” Coach JJ said.

Steel Athletics opened its doors in January 2017. Their mission was to create a facility for like-minded people who put health and fitness as a priority.

Coach JJ and his wife, Francesca Ambrose, own and manage the facility in Tamuning.

“We’ve grown a community that is quite amazing. It happened so organically, without us even thinking about it,” Ambrose said.
