Help Us, Help You
After an absolutely awful 2020, during which Common Ground (our Elkhorn-based gym) was closed for an extended period of time due to the COVID-19 pandemic, 2021 started out strong for us. It seemed that after so many months cooped up at home, eating comfort foods, many of us were ready to shed some weight and get in shape for summer. Unfortunately, as summer draws to an end - and new variants of the virus seem to be sweeping across our nation - we’re beginning to notice some all-too-familiar trends that led to that sharp decline in business last year.
Like you, we wish the virus would just go away. We’re not any bigger fans of government mandates than you probably are - but we do love helping people get healthy. And if there’s anything the past 18 months have taught us, it’s that there’s NOTHING more important than your health! So we’d like to ask for your help - so we can help you, your family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers!
We’d like to take on a 1/2 dozen new clients this fall (1 or 2 per trainer) - SO WE’RE OFFERING A SALE! Any new client who starts between now and the end of September will receive 1 FREE session if they start with our 10 session package, or 2 FREE sessions if they purchase a 25 session package instead. This is where our existing clients can benefit as well; for everyone you refer (who actually signs up with us), we’ll give you a $25 gift card to the store of your choice (or the equivalent amount off your next training package). Or if you refer us to a business that actually signs up for our employee wellness programming that we offer through WorkoutWhereYouWork.com - we’ll give you a nice crisp $100 bill for your successful referral!
We can all get through this unfortunate moment in history if we all band together and lift each other up. At Kennedy Fitness, we’re happy to help you physically AND financially - we just need a little of your help to do it first!
Yours in health,
Robert Kennedy
President, CEO
We think you’re the best! If the feeling is mutual, please tell the world!

Norwegian Seafood Burgers
Ingredients
1 (2-ounce or 55 ml) slice whole-wheat sandwich bread, torn into pieces
12 ounces (340 ml) wild salmon fillets, skin and bones discarded, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 ounces (330 ml) bay scallops
6 ounces (330 ml) shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 green onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh dill
2 tablespoons (30 ml) vegan mayonnaise (such as Veganaise or Just Mayo)
1 egg, beaten
1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) salt
1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) ground pepper
2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil
4 large red leaf lettuce leaves
Directions
Pulse the bread in a food processor until finely ground, pour into a large bowl. Add the fish, scallops and shrimp to the food processor and pulse until finely ground, about 20 on/off pulses. Transfer to the bowl with the breadcrumbs and add the green onions, dill, mayonnaise, egg, salt and pepper. Stir well to combine. With moistened hands, form the mixture into 4 patties about 4 1/2 inches in diameter. Chill for 10 minutes.
Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the burgers and cook without moving them until golden brown underneath and set on the sides, 5 minutes. Carefully flip the burgers, reduce heat to medium low and cook on the second side until the mixture is opaque in the center, about 5 minutes. Tuck the burgers into the lettuce leaves and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
