About us
With nearly 66% of North Carolina's population overweight and ranking 5th on the list as the worst in the U.S. for childhood obesity* it is no surprise to find many of us scrambling to find ways to lose weight and get fit.
The "Poor Man's Gym" is a fitness facility owned and operated by LAMiTCA, a nonprofit organization located in Selma, North Carolina. Because health and wellness are part of our organizations mission, we aim to make the pursuit of health and wellness as affordable as possible. That's why our fitness facility allows under served youths and their families use the facility at no charge.

It is the goal of LAMiTCA's Poor Man's Gym to promote fitness to those who have the desire but lack the means and hope that by providing access will allow those with limited resources the opportunity to increase their quality of life for themselves and their families.
