Guatemalan competition "Unleash Your Fitness" will feature a new category

The "Unleash Your Fitness" 2022 competition will take place in the Cementos Progreso Stadium, Guatemala, this coming November 25, 26 and 27 and will feature a new Teens category in its eighth edition.

This year they will have the Elite, Rx, Scalaed, Master and now Teens Scalaed categories, an approximate number of more than 300 athletes are expected where they will test their gymnastics, strength, endurance, aerobic capacities , among many other things.

Ricardo "Ricky" Rosal, one of the creators and director of Unleash Your Fitness, told us that it all started as an internal competition at his gym.

"The first edition emerged in 2014, we realized that it was a good option to be a larger competition due to the number of athletes and the boom that the internal competition had," Ricky explained.

Since 2015 they made the decision to hold the largest competition at the national level.

In 2020, the first year of the Covid-19 pandemic, they opted to hold a closed-door competition so that the athletes could once again experience this great event, which was for teams of three, two men, one woman, and they limited the number of spectators.

In 2021 they had the opportunity to hold the event open to the public, with around 197 athletes registered in all categories and a large audience, in addition, they had a live stream on their YouTube account.

Ricky concluded by sharing that this has been a project of great learning through adversity, and his mission is focused on his slogan "Live the Dream. Enjoy Community. Experience Fitness".

"Today, eight years after we started, it has been a source of pride, but also a great phase of growth for everyone involved. We've made a lot of mistakes, but today we're able to create this event, which is a very positive experience every day," he concluded.
