“Opportunities Don’t Happen. You Create Them.”

For 2019 I decided to share with you some of the brands I love and why.
Kicking off January with my first ‘BRAND OF THE MONTH’ a company whose ethos, work ethic, and unique fitness apparel is second to none. The truly inspirational GYMSHARK.
With over 2 Million followers on Instagram, over 1 Million on FaceBook and 201k followers on YouTube, this ever growing brand and online retailer is taking fitness culture globally to another level. GYMSHARK ARE BULKING BEYOND THE GYM!
With added social media accounts you can engage with this brand even further through, Gymshark Women (having over 1 Million followers on Instagram) and Gymshark Train (having 419K followers on Instagram).
The brand pride themselves on calling their team and community the ‘Gymshark Family’. This is actually one of the company’s core values, and what a great value and ethos to have. THEY ARE CERTAINLY A BRAND MAKING US ALL BECOME VISIONARY!

“We rise by lifting others”
GYMSHARK
Entrepreneur and Gymshark founder, Ben Francis, created the company from his family’s garage – with just a screen printing operation – back in 2012. This company is now known as one of the UK’s fastest-growing companies and one of the most recognised brands in the fitness industry. Hashtag Inspiration right there! According to The Times ‘Gymshark made profits of £8.2million in 2017 and sells to 177 countries’.

Having been recommended to me and connecting with the brand on social media myself, I decided to try their fitness apparel out for the first time at the beginning of last year. Giving me GAINS through FASHION – I fell in love with this brand! The quality of the apparel is second to none and perfect to train in, with a love of this brand’s values also I was hooked. I even like to meditate in my leggings! My own collection is ever growing and I am now starting to add to my accessories too! Again very impressed with the materials, look, fit, support, options and quality of all products. They never miss even the smallest of details, having their signature ‘Be A Visionary’ on the strip to their tags and their logo on all packaging. (High Five!!)

There are lots of amazing collections with some of the new ones aptly named, Elevate, Seamless, Carbon and Ascend. (Hands up need in my life right now moment!). This brand are certainly meeting our needs in this ever growing fitness and wellness industry.
With their office space boasting the UK’s first office Human Centric smart lighting system, an exceptional canteen, a yoga mat zone, sleep pods, a VR enclosure and much more….They are seriously giving the likes of Google a run for their money!!
