JACKSON TWP. “You’ve got this” is proudly displayed on the home page of the RTC Fitness Co., which is located in the building of the Stark State Campus that used to house the Fuel Cell Research Center of Stark State.
The center has been occupying the space since the spring of 2019.
RTC Fitness is owned and operated by Allison Sholley, a level two trainer and nutrition coach. Sholley said she decided to open the gym when returning to the area after she graduated with a business degree from the University of Colorado.
“I came home from college and didn’t know what I wanted to do,” Sholley said. “One day my brother asked me to go his gym with him. I was 22 years old at the time 30 pounds overweight, so I went and from that first day I was hooked. I started going to the gym five days a week. But I thought there had to be a better way to go to they gym than spending $125 a month on membership.”

When the second mandated closure came down, it felt really like being punched in the gut, Walsh said. I s very much been a roller coaster of emotions since March.
