\u201cIt should be a place where people come to be energized and revitalized, an oasis to escape the chaos of the world around us and be uplifted both emotionally and spiritually.\u201d<\/p>\n
Gary\u2019s daughter, Jessica Rubin, the club\u2019s operations manager, recalls running on treadmills at age 4. She is carrying on the family fitness tradition.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s more of a community atmosphere here, a lot of families, local Point Loma people,\u201d she said adding, \u201cWe\u2019re very big on providing an experience that\u2019s more than just your physical body, (stressing) mental health and well being.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rubin added Point Loma Sports Club, located in a huge building with high ceilings and compartmentalized into several different rooms, offers a diverse menu of health and fitness options. \u201cWhether you\u2019re an elite athlete, or you\u2019re just starting out, everyone can find their place here,\u201d said Rubin adding the local club attracts members from all over because \u201cthey just love the vibe here. It\u2019s not something that you can get somewhere else.\u201d<\/p>\n Fitness options offered include spacious open-air facilities, group classes, personal training, showers, shampoo, and towel service, far infrared sauna, lockers, therapeutic bodywork, spinning, yoga, lifestyle coaching with functional diagnostic lab testing, aerial lessons, corporate wellness programs, sports therapy, and energy healing.<\/p>\n The club\u2019s design, from the layout to its equipment and staff, is all about supporting the vision that people of all shapes, sizes, and levels of fitness ability can come to enhance their physical, spiritual, and emotional well-being.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are not in the fitness business serving people, we are in the people business serving fitness,\u201d states the club\u2019s website. \u201cEverything here is top of the line, from our equipment to our classes, to our programs, to our staff.\u00a0We approach our members with respect, intelligence, strength, humor, and energy.\u00a0We treat people as we would a respected friend of the family.\u201d<\/p>\n Another novel thing about Point Loma Sports Club is that you get inspirational quotes and words to live by along with your workout. Inspiration quotes are to be found everywhere around the gym including one in Rubin\u2019s office that reads, \u201cLive life as if everything is rigged in your favor.\u201d<\/p>\n Rubin noted Point Loma Sports Club presently has about 20 employees and about 1,500 members and is open every day. Concerning the club\u2019s mission, she said: \u201cIt\u2019s really about making sure everyone here is getting what they need. It\u2019s not a big corporate business. We have the ability to get to know all our members on a first-name business and our staff really enjoys getting to know everyone that comes in.\u201d<\/p>\n Asked what makes Point Loma Sports Club special, Rubin replied:<\/p>\n \u201cEveryone is welcome here and no matter what you\u2019re looking for in fitness, health, or anything \u2013 you can find it here.\u201d<\/p>\n POINT LOMA SPORTS CLUB<\/p>\n Where: 2751 Roosevelt Road.<\/p>\n Hours:\u00a0Mondays-Fridays 5 a.m.-9 p.m., Saturdays-Sundays 7 a.m.-6 p.m.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.sdnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/20220727123622\/headshot-2-200x300.jpg\")
