Frankie the pug, the Altytude Fitness gym mascot, trotting across the studio floor in Altrincham

Meet Frankie, the Altytude gym pug

Every great gym has a legend. Ours happens to be small, very good at looking unimpressed, and a pug.

Meet Frankie. She is the official Altytude gym pug and our studio mascot. If you have ever wondered whether there is a gym pug Altrincham can call its own, there is, and she is ours.

Who is Frankie?

Frankie is our gym pug (she/her) and the official face of fun around here.

Our coaches run the classes. Peter and Bec run the place. Frankie, as far as we can tell, handles morale.

A day in the life of a gym pug

We cannot speak for Frankie (she would never allow it), but we can tell you what we have noticed.

Favourite spot? Favourite member? Favourite treat? She is not telling, but feel free to guess in the comments of any Frankie post.

What we can confirm is that she brings a very particular energy to the place. Chilled AF, mostly.

Why every studio needs a mascot

We are an independent, owner-run gym in the Stamford Quarter, not a chain. That means we get to do things our way, and our way includes a pug.

There is a serious point under the snuffles. Walking into a new gym can feel daunting. A friendly face (even a squashed one) takes the edge off. It is hard to feel nervous about your first class when there is a pug giving you a long, judgemental look from across the room.

It also says something about who we are. As Matt L. put it in his Google review, we are a “Fantastic community based gym, the space, equipment and most importantly the staff are absolutely exceptional.” Frankie is very much part of that community, even if she does not do burpees.

Frankie has a face that says a thousand words, and she pops up on our socials every so often to prove it. Follow @altytude.fitness on Instagram and our Facebook page so you never miss a Frankie moment.
