fitness mission

Jon Messick, owner of BodyFit
Punch in Lexington, is on a mission to bring more fitness to the
Bluegrass.
In just five years on the University of Kentucky campus, BodyFit
Punch classes have grown and the
facility has become known as a
great place to go to sweat and have
fun.
“We’re more of a specialty-type
fitness [place],” Messick said.

“We have heavy bags, but it’s not
typical boxing or mixed marital
arts-style stuff. We have four types
of classes: punch, kettle-combat,
burn and tread and shred.”
Messick played collegiate and
pro football before training for
marathons and turning to helping others with their fitness and
health
