Three60fit celebrates one year as an American Legion

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS - It's been a year since an Arlington Heights-based gym, Three60fit, became a modern American Legion post, opening its doors to veterans of all ages with a focus on facilitating their growth, repair, health and wellness as they return to civilian life.

American Legion Post 2020, located at the gym, 569 W. Golf Road, offers more than just a place for veterans to exercise, said Christian Koshaba, owner, Post Commander and an Air Force veteran. Through a combination of morning physical training workout sessions, Bible study classes, and referrals for therapy and job placement, the unconventional Legion post is an outlet to bring veterans back into the fold.

Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, Koshaba added five new members to Post 2020, and has continued to build out resources and programming for veterans.

"American Legion was formed to give those who serve our country a community where they can transition back into civilian life," said Koshaba. "Three60fit is doing its part in promoting health and wellness for these veterans, and providing them with a space to connect, rebuild, and grow together."
