Our members are the heart and soul of Athletic Lab. This August we reach our 8 year milestone of business. We’re proud to have worked with such amazing people and changed so many lives. Every month we highlight one of our members as part of our Member of the Month Feature. For the month of August we’ve chosen Sanjay Chandru. Sanjay was our first and longest standing Performance Fitness member. He’s been with us since the very beginning and has become a fixture of Athletic Lab and a beloved part of our community. You can check out our previous members of the month here.
Name: Sanjay Chandru
What city were you born in? Chennai, India
What do you do when you’re not working out at Athletic Lab (occupation, hobbies, etc)? I run Offering Management for IBM Z DevOps. In other words, I have no life outside of AL ;-)
How did you first hear about Athletic Lab? How long have you been a member? Got spammed on my car windshield by Eric Broadbent in Bond Park. I’ve been a member since ~October 2009
As one of Athletic Lab’s very first members, you have a unique perspective. What are the biggest changes you’ve noticed in Athletic Lab over the past eight years You guys have been able to realize the potential of this place over the years by persisting through the tough times. From the warehouse on Aviation Parkway to a thriving established setup in the current location, while you’ve grown you’ve also stayed true to your original goal of providing a quality fitness experience vs. just trying to make money. So Athletic lab has only changed in size and scope but not in its fundamental ethos.
What’s your favorite exercise? Least favorite? Favorite: hmmmmmmm, Thrusters (yeah I said it, and I’m not lying), Least Favorite: This one is easy, Burpees!!!
Is there anything you have done at Athletic Lab that you never thought you could do? Real Pullups, actually pretty much everything I can do today, lol!
What motivates you? That’s a profound question. The uncertainty of life!
