It was such a fun morning welcoming Sheila Cichon Watko and NBC10 into the studio to get a glimpse of what KG Strong is all about.

Of course we talked about strength training, but what we were most excited to share was the incredible community that fills this space every single day. The support, encouragement, friendships, and people who keep showing up for themselves and each other are what make KG Strong so special.

A huge thank you to our members for being the heart of this community. We can’t wait to share the final segment with you soon! 💜

Some of the strongest people we know are the ones who keep showing up.

Carly has been part of the KG Strong community for years. She trained throughout her pregnancy, came back through our Strong Mom program postpartum, and continues to prioritize her strength one workout at a time.

Outside the gym, Carly is also a founder of El Comité, a grassroots organization fighting for the rights of immigrant workers here in Philadelphia.

One of our favorite parts of what we do is getting to know our members beyond the workout. We learn what drives them, what they’re passionate about, and when we have the opportunity, we love using our community to support theirs.

This Saturday and Tuesday, our Rooftop Movement Series is raising money for El Comité. It’s a small way we can stand behind someone who has given so much to her own community.

Because strength isn’t just about what happens inside the gym. It’s about showing up for each other wherever it matters.

Join us on the rooftop. đź’ś Link in bio
