Where Your Equipment Fees Are Going

At Sacred Pine, we believe transparency matters. When you invest in us through your membership and equipment fees, you deserve to know exactly how those dollars are being put to work. Our goal is simple: provide a safe, well-equipped, and constantly improving training environment for every single member who walks through our doors.

Over the past few months, we’ve been steadily reinvesting those funds back into the gym—and we’re excited to share what we’ve added so far.

What We’ve Purchased

Thanks to your contributions, we’ve invested approximately $3,200 into new equipment and upgrades, including:

  • A 16x20x24 plyo box to support scaling and progression for box work
  • Hip halo bands for warm-ups, mobility, and injury prevention
  • HSPU and sit-up mats to improve comfort, safety, and movement quality
  • New bumper plates
    • 8 × 15 lb plates
    • 8 × 25 lb plates
    • 6 × 45 lb plates
  • 12 sets of barbell clips to keep your lifts secure and safe
  • 5 Rogue rolling plate storage racks to keep the floor organized and efficient
  • 1.25 lb change plates for more precise loading and progression
  • A Rogue gymnastics mat for added versatility and protection during floor work
  • A Rogue barbell rack to continue improving our equipment organization and accessibility

These upgrades aren’t just about adding more “stuff”—they’re about improving your daily experience. Better organization, safer lifts, more options to scale and progress, and a cleaner training space all add up to better workouts.

What’s Next

We’re not done yet. Here’s what’s currently on our improvement wishlist:

  • Expanding our dumbbell inventory
  • Replacing worn GHD pads
  • Painting and refreshing the men’s locker room and interior bathroom
  • Upgrading branding in the lobby
  • Freshening up paint throughout the gym

Our Commitment to You

We take seriously the responsibility of maintaining a space that is safe, functional, and continually evolving. Equipment fees are not an afterthought—they are a direct investment back into your experience as an athlete.

We’ll continue to keep you updated as we make improvements, and we’re always open to feedback on what would make Sacred Pine even better for you.

Thank you for being part of this community and for helping us grow.
