Snap Fitness

Adam Buitenhuis and Marcy Verburg left busy corporate jobs to join the Snap Fitness franchise in 2009, and they have never looked back. The couple has always loved outdoors sports — wakeboarding, ski racing, paddling, rock climbing — so a career in fitness was hardly a big leap for either of them. Both have been hitting the gym since their teen years and are familiar with how structured workouts can improve physical fitness and lead to a healthier, happier lifestyle.

“Without taking care of ourselves — our nutrition and our exercise — you get tired. You get old quicker. Your youth goes, and your body starts to fall apart if you don’t take care of it. It’s a choice.”

The busy couple takes care of three young children and two Snap Fitness locations — one in Roncesvalles and one in the Junction — so they depend on exercise to help keep their energy up. Adam and Marcy follow the same advice they give their clients, incorporating regular workouts into their daily routine, which they use to support their weekend warrior streak.
