The confetti has settled, the champagne flutes are washed, and we have officially welcomed 2026. If you are like most of us, "getting back in shape" is probably sitting somewhere near the top of your resolution list.

But let’s be honest—resolutions are easy to make and hard to keep. The secret to sticking with them isn't just willpower; it’s having the right environment, the right support, and maybe a little financial incentive to get you started.

That is why this January, the Warrenton Aquatic and Recreation Facility (WARF) is the place to be. Whether you are looking to lift heavy, swim laps, or just get moving again, the WARF has rolled out some incredible upgrades and offers to help you succeed.

1. The "New Year, New You" Deal: 15% Off Personal Training

If you’ve ever walked into a gym and felt completely lost, you are not alone. Sometimes, the best investment you can make is in a guide.

For January 2026, the WARF is offering a 15% discount on Personal Training packages. This is the perfect opportunity to work one-on-one with a certified trainer who can:

• Build a custom plan tailored to your body and goals.
• Teach you proper form to prevent injury.
• Keep you accountable when the "February Slump" tries to set in.

Whether you are a total beginner or an athlete looking to break a plateau, this limited-time discount makes professional coaching more accessible than ever.

2. Experience the Upgrades

If you haven't visited the fitness room lately, you are in for a treat. The WARF recently completed a fitness room makeover, installing brand-new, state-of-the-art equipment.

Forget the squeaky machines of the past; the new layout is designed to maximize your workout efficiency. From advanced cardio machines to a revamped strength training area, the facility feels fresh, modern, and ready for you to sweat in style.

3. More Than Just a Gym

One of the biggest reasons people quit their gym memberships is boredom. Running on a treadmill for 30 minutes every day can get stale fast. The beauty of the WARF is the sheer variety of ways you can move your body:

• Group Fitness Classes: If you thrive on community energy, check out the 2026 Group Fitness Schedule. From high-energy TRX classes that build core strength to calming Yoga flows, there is a class for every mood.
• Make a Splash: Tired of sweating? Go for a swim! The Claude Moore Fun For All aquatic center offers lap lanes for serious swimmers and a therapeutic spa for post-workout recovery. The water resistance is great for your joints and offers a change of pace from the weight room.
• Parks & Trails: If the weather holds up, the Warrenton Sports Complex surrounding the WARF offers paved hiking paths. You can start your warmup outside and finish your workout indoors.



Let’s Make 2026 Your Strongest Year Yet

There is no "perfect time" to start, but right now is pretty close. With the community buzzing with New Year energy and the WARF offering 15% off training packages, you have every tool you need to succeed.
