Why REX Roundtables Is Unique in The Fitness Industry
2020 Year for REX Roundtables
By Maria Novey
2020 started out good
REX outings scheduled just as they should.
Brent and RT 2 were New Orleans bound
Miami’s South Beach is where Eddie’s groups could be found.
Planning had begun for the next round
When reports of problems began to sound.
A virus said to be very bad
Was about to affect all, turning us from glad to sad.
Life changed as we knew it
Stay home orders tested our grit
Clubs and businesses told to close
Bringing on such sadness and woes.
So many questions on what actions to take
The livelihood of our gyms truly at stake.
Eddie and Brent – REX’s Dynamic Duo to the rescue
They helped guide members as they always do.
Weekly calls set for Young Guns, Rowdy and RT2
Developing strategies as REX members forge through.
Zoom calls set for OMS, MCRT for view
And we cannot forget Zoom for RT3 and the CREW.
Mark and JT followed the lead with Zoom calls as well
Helping members with Q&A which were unparallel.
More questions than answers for everyone
One thing for sure, we all wished crazy times were done.
As our lives changed REX members forged on
Normal routines, workouts and operations were gone.
Weeks turned into months as daily rules changed
Depending on where you lived, things got even more strange.
As states began to open, good news began to spread
Gyms were back and patrons were happy – that truly can be said.
Just to be safe, REX members decided no meetings in Fall
States and travel made planning a difficult hall.
So through the fall we continued with Zoom
Wishing away the doom and gloom.
Everyone looking forward to 2021
And happy that 2020 will truly be done!
