Bringing the Workout to Contoocook


Daniel Fletcher

Cindy Glass, a Contoocook resident, opened Storm’s Fitness on September 1st, 2011. It is located at 442 Pine Street, Contoocook, NH. Before opening the gym she had been attending a gym in Concord but did not want to drive so far to work out. She hoped that others felt the same way and would join Storm’s Fitness.

The gym offers zumba, yoga, boot camp, strength training, yogalaties, step, aerobics, group cycling classes, and more. There are many different instructors that lead classes and offer personal training. Free weights are offered as well as cardio machines and total body trainers. The gym sits on 10 acres of land with 100 acres of town owned land, which gives it potential for hiking, outdoor running, snowshoeing and much more.

The name “Storm’s Fitness” is named after Cindy’s daughter, Storm. Storm Sideleau says, “I am very excited to have the gym named after me, it means a lot.” Not only is it a kind gesture, but, also a very catchy name that should draw in many clients.

As far as costs go it is fairly similar to other gyms but since it is located in Contoocook it may save you gas money. It costs 75 dollars to enroll with an additional payment each month. This payment can vary anywhere from 20 to 50 dollars. Senior citizens and students pay forty dollars per month. Adults pay fifty dollars per month. There are family plans where you can add the first child for twenty-five dollars and any additional children for twenty dollars each. Adults in the family plan pay forty dollars each. When compared to Concord’s Gold’s Gym the prices are in the same range. However, Storm’s Fitness offers more discount packages.

Many people cannot go to the gym because they need to stay home and watch their children. Luckily Storm’s Fitness has a childcare playroom so that the children can have fun while you get your work out in. This allows for every body to come and use the gym’s resources. Storm’s Fitness should be a pleasant addition to the small town of Contoocook.
