Hidden Gems: Meet Cari Frink of Spenga Loveland

Today we’d like to introduce you to Cari Frink.

Hi Cari, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I am a wife and mother to 4 incredible kids (ages 3-9). I am a Colorado Native and a Colorado State University graduate. Prior to opening Spenga Loveland, my husband and I owned a small box gym in Northern Colorado. We knew that we wanted to try something different and were drawn to boutique fitness. Spenga is an incredible concept that combines the three pillars of fitness – Cardio, Strength, and Flexibility in a fun and personal way for any fitness level. We opened our Spin, Strength, Yoga studio in June 2021.

While we didn’t go into this planning on opening mid-pandemic, we already had one foot in and there was no backing out. Owning a small business during a pandemic has taught us a lot about flexibility and grit. It has been incredible to see how we have been able to meet a need in Loveland, Colorado, and it is such an honor to play a small role in so many individuals’ fitness journeys. I love that I get to encourage people daily to be the best version of themselves and to be better today than they were yesterday.

I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
The fitness industry has been one of the hardest hit industries by the pandemic. There are always challenges when you open a brick-and-mortar business, but you add in a pandemic carries a whole different level of challenges – everything from construction to staffing to equipment repairs.

You name it and we’ve probably dealt with it. The one thing I repeat to myself almost daily is that if it was easy, everybody would do it!

As you know, we’re big fans of Spenga Loveland. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
SPENGA’s format of 20 minutes of spin, 20 minutes of strength training, and 20 minutes of yoga combines the three pillars of fitness all in one 60-minute group training workout. Led by our highly trained instructors, our philosophy makes for strong bodies and strong minds.

You won’t find a workout like this at your local gym. SPENGA is a community of like-minded individuals all looking to make the most out of their lives and their workouts, and every time you step into our studio, we guarantee we’ll be there cheering you on every ride, rep, and revive!
