Originally founded in 1987, the history of Flex Gym and Fitness Center has its roots firmly established in Ottawa, Illinois. Jeff and Ann Johnson began their dream by establishing a serious and fun fitness experience for everyone with the original Flex Gym in its humble beginnings.
The original Flex Gym started in a small section of a building filled with as much equipment as it could hold. Flex has an immediate impact and it soon was clear that Flex Gym was in need of a larger facility that could hold its ever expanding club.
In 1991, Flex Gym and Fitness Center opened a brand new, state of the art facility that was home to numerous members, top equipment, and facilities such as tanning, cardio and posing room, and a sauna that meant the many needs of their ever widening family.
Also in 1991, Jeff and Ann established the Mid-Illinois Bodybuilding Championship as a means of sharing their love of competitive bodybuilding and as a means of showcasing local talent. Over the years the Mid-Illinois has grown to include fitness and figure categories. It has evolved into one of the nations premiere amateur shows attracting talent from throughout the midwest and drawing some of the top competitors in the world as guest posers.
Today, from the humble beginnings in the late 80s, Flex Gym has emerged a staple as the top gym in LaSalle County with several hundred members. It has continued to upgrade and maintain its state of the art facilities so that their members have all they need for their diverse fitness goals.
The future of Flex has never looked brighter as they continue to grow and change with their members. One thing has never and will never change; they still keep their humble beginnings close to heart and that is what makes the Flex Experience the greatest any fitness minded person could ask for.
Jeff and Ann welcome you to Flex Gym and wish you all the best in your pursuit of your fitness goals.
We will see you in the gym--Jeff and Ann
