Name of business: Lifted Fitness Type of business: Women’s strength and bodybuilding gym Location: 2242 Maryann Drive Hours: 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday-Friday Contact information: 209-427-5555 Specialty: Group classes and personal training History of business: What began simply as a vision to provide women with a safe, comfortable place to work out has now grown into a 100-member strong business venture for Turlock resident Hannah Grace, who along with boyfriend and co-owner Doug Mutoza, opened Lifted Fitness just under a year ago. Since then, the gym has catered to female fitness enthusiasts of all ages and sizes with a philosophy created by women, for women. “When I was just starting out, I sometimes felt uncomfortable going to my gym…some exercises were awkward to do in front of guys, and a lot of the time there were no other girls in the weight room,” said Grace.
