I recently finished the 6 week challenge. What can i say about Deb and her team that hasn't already been said? Its a very welcoming environment and the class sizes are ideal. The meal plan was comprehensive and easy to follow, i never once felt like i was depriving myself or on a "diet" it was just good whole foods. The work outs were great, and the instructors were able to adapt exercises to accommodate my injuries. I left every class drenched in sweat and feeling amazing. There is nothing I would change about my experience with The Hub. The Facebook group was a huge part of my success also, keeping me accountable and other challengers sharing recipes questions was really helpful. I felt really supported. Thanks Deb! read more

Whoa! I feel good, I knew that I would, now I feel good, I knew that I would, now So good, so good, I got you... Hub! I have been to many gyms and tried numerous diets and other things in my pursuit of finding my way to a body I feel comfortable living in. None of them stuck. Mostly, I think because the right kind of accountability wasn't built in to whichever one I was trying. I found the 80/20 Hub on a Facebook ad of all things. The ad advertised a 6 week nutrition and fitness challenge. I had been on my path to shedding some weight since April, I was down 20, but then I got complacent over the summer and knew I needed some extra support to go that last 10. So there I was. It's 7 weeks later and I got my results. 10.8 lbs in 6 weeks is pretty darn good. And I'm super happy with my results. What I didn't expect to find was a positive and welcoming community! Back from my community manager days here in Calgary, I know first hand how hard it is to create a place people want to hang out in, have fun together in and still make progress. Deb Sousa has done just that. Paired with her enthusiasm, endless energy, approachable nature, and killer nutrition and fitness knowledge has created my winning combo for lasting change. Now that my 6 week challenge is done, I've signed on for a full membership and it's easy to get my butt out of bed 3 mornings a week for a workout because it's a place I want to be. I love it here and adore the people who keep coming through the door. Pro tip: There's no slacking off here and no magic bullet. If you're ready to make some changes and willing to put in the work, this just might be a place you want to try. See you at one of the workouts!! read more

I won't lie, when I first seen this ad I thought total scam like most people. This was the 3rd place I checked out regarding a 6 week challenge and all I gotta say is WOW. The. Coaches are amazing, they actually care about you and want you do Well. Unlike the other places they want your money and couldn't care about you after you signed up. There's a story behind the coaches and why they do what they do. They want you to succeed, support is always available from them and from other members . Meal plan is simple. Workouts are fun, people are amazing Coaches are always Checking to see how your doing and if something is not working they will help you fix it. I recommend this place. Completed the challenge. I feel great, I'm happy and I'm now a member. Thanks Deb, Adella and Katie for being so awesome! Shannon Roman read more

Dear 80/20 Hub! Thank you for changing my life and for showing me "I CAN" change my life and habits over the 6-week challenge! Feels good to be healthier, lighter, stronger, better looking, more confident, heck I am smiling a lot more too. I've been involved in many sports and fitness styles around Calgary and the world, but it was at 80/20 Hub where I found a missing link. A link that helped me better appreciate the combination of proper coaching, balanced nutrition and a positive mindset to help achieve the desired goal. In just three weeks, under the 80/20 Hub nutrition plan, my most recent blood work results showed drastic improvement. My doctor was very impressed. Coach Deb Sousa and Adella Kerekes are welcoming, openminded, positive souls who will take the time to show you proper exercise techniques in a fun approachable way. You might think you are doing an exercise correctly, but when your heart is racing during a HIIT or BOOTCAMP workout, it's easy to forget proper technique. Hence why it is important to have a coach or personal trainer (PT) to help prevent you from injury. Here's a look at what we achieved (and we're still going). Start of 6-week challenge: Age: 32 Height: 6'1" Weight:241lbs (109.4kg) Metabolic age: 34 Body fat: 22.1% Muscle mass 178lbs End of 6-week challenge: Age: still the same (what a surprise) Weight: 224.6 lbs (deficit of 16.4lbs) Metabolic age: 12 (figure that one out, ha!) Body fat: 12.8% (down 9.3%) Muscle mass:186.6 (gained 8.6lbs of lean muscle) Very proud of these results! If I can achieve them, so can you. I would highly recommend this gym. Thanks 80/20 Hub! read more

I signed up for the 6 week challenge after I felt like I lost control and I was not myself. My clothes weren't fitting properly, I had no energy, I didn't like what I was seeing in the mirror and I knew I had to do something about it. 80/20 saved me! I found a place I love going, I have fun working out and not to mention... I started noticing changes quickly. The outcome: I lost weight, gained muscle and learned so many new, fun workouts. I gained awesome coaches and get to workout with like-minded people with the same goals... it's awesome and the people are amazing. read more

I LOVE THE 80/20 HUB. The accountability and support it has given me is life changing. I 100% suggest people who want to increase their knowledge on fitness/nutrition/mindset to get their butts in the hub to see what its all about for themselves. I have started coming her because of a 6 week fat loss challenge, and since then I have been achieving my goals, learning new things, gaining confidence, and meeting people. What more do you want? Thank you coach Deb for helping me be the best me!! read more

I joined the 80/20 hub to lose weight. I joined the 6 week challenge as I was tired all the time and needed to find some energy. I lost 31lbs and 10.9% body fat and feel great. The meal plan was easy to follow and the classes were challenging. The accountability posts kept me on track. Adella kept the classes interesting and helped when I needed it. I would recommend the challenge if you have the time to work it into your schedule. read more

The 80/20 Hub experience has been a total success. Coach Deb is a force to be reckon with, she knows exactly what is going on in nutrition as well as exercise. Her breakdown of the nutrition lifestyle was comprehensive in nature allowing myself to fully engage and benefit in a lifestyle change. She provides recipe books along with a detailed meal plan which is motivating for me as that is the hardest part - in my opinion. Her ability to demonstrate each exercise and explain in so that I could understand - was nothing short of perfection. I was successful in completing the 6% body fat challenge and there is no doubt in my mind that it was achieved because of having a great coach like Deb. Started at 163.8lbs, body fat % was at 23.2% and Muscle mass was 114.4lbs, in 6 weeks I finished at 151.8lbs, body fat % dropped 7.9% and Muscle mass gained to 122lbs. You are awesome Deb! read more

A big thank you to Deb and her team for kickstarting my health and exercise plan! I just turned 50 and had 20lbs or more to lose. My energy was low and had been suffering from a lifetime of lower back pain. In just 6 short weeks I lost the 20 lbs, my energy levels are way up and the back pain is gone! The workouts are tough but fun as we all worked out together as a group.the meal plan is very effective and I never felt hungry throughout the program. If you stay with the plan, workout at least 3 times a week-I guarantee you will see great results.my clothes now fit again as they should and I can look forward to more core strengthening. The 80/20 hub is wonderful! thank you! Brent L. read more

The 80/20 hub is great, especially the 6 week challenge, I have tried many gyms in the past and have never seen a lot of success. The team there focusses on lifestyle change rather than just leaving you to your own abilities. With the 80/20 Hub I saw a lot of success with people keeping you accountable and making your training and nutrition planning personal and easy to do. The workouts are great and provide a good mix of different exercises and cardio. I have never felt such a good burn from every workout afterwords! read more

Perfect place, not just to loose weight, but full nutrition guidance and personal touch.

When you have hundreds of fitness facilities and programs available to choose from in Calgary it can be tough to know what is "worth it". The hub and more specifically Coach Deb is all you could ever ask for. Despite working in the industry myself, I walked through her doors skeptical of my ability to accomplish a big goal. Her support is unwaivering, the community she has built is incredible, and her programming works - simple. Accomplishing a fitness goal is so much more than just working out and eating right. If you're like me you've struggled in the past and tried many different options. It wasn't until I started at the hub that my need for education, accountability and emotional support was really realized. This place has changed my life. read more
