In this episode, we explore what it means to push beyond limits and build an authentic community. Joining us are Allann and KH, the leaders behind Growth Club Shanghai (GCS), a free outdoor fitness community that has adapted and thrived through challenging times.
Founded by fitness coach Jesper in 2020 as COVID began to reshape daily life, GCS started as small workout sessions outside his café Snug. When circumstances changed, as beloved coaches, Allann and KH stepped forward to guide the community, fostering resilience, physical transformation, and meaningful connections through their shared passion for fitness.
Today, GCS remains true to its mission, as written in its philosophy:
“We come together to mold out of grit, and sweat, the best version of ourselves. In GCS, we support each other to "DO MORE BE MORE." A mentality that comes from "if you're not moving forward, you're moving backward." Be consistent, enjoy what you're doing, work out smart, go out of your comfort zone, eat healthy and you will ultimately find progress.”
