Today we’d like to introduce you to Brenda Sanchez.
Brenda, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
My husband and I started training at our garage gym eight years ago. We were trying to get a healthier and more active lifestyle. We started inviting friends and family to exercise with us. We eventually had more than 10 people training with us at the garage. My husband and I decided to open Ultimate Force Fitness in November 2017 to promote fitness in our community. I continued to be a full-time elementary teacher and coach in the gym in the evenings. My husband died from a heart condition in November 2019. I have been able to maintain Ultimate Force Fitness as a sole owner. It was challenging through the Covid shutdown, but I have been able to keep the gym going. We have won several CrossFit competitions and continue to challenge my athletes daily. I couldn’t be happier than to look forward to our 5th year anniversary this November 2022.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
There has been several struggles. After my husband passed, I did not know if I would be able to keep the gym going. I had to juggle being a full-time teacher, mother of two, administrating, programming and coaching for the gym. Then, came Covid shutdown. I continued to conduct classes virtually and motivated my athletes through online coaching.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Ultimate Force Fitness?
Ultimate Force Fitness is a gym that was established in November 2017 as a family-owned business. We provide fitness classes through functional training, performance and strength training. Ultimate Force Fitness is set apart from others because it’s a family-oriented environment. The business is coached and programmed by the owner. Therefore, every athlete is valued and is essential to the gym. Coaching the athletes to achieve their fitness and health goals is our priority.
What do you like best about our city? What do you like least?
I grew up and have lived in Houston, Texas my entire life. I love the diversity and opportunities that we have in Houston. I least like the traffic in our city.
