November Client of the month

Birth Date: July 31, 1969

How long have you been working out at Bodyshop Athletics X: Since October 2017 (10 weeks)

What is your favorite food? There are so many...do I have to pick a FAVORITE?

What is your favorite exercise? I am enjoying doing heavier weights than what I would have considered before.

Did you have any goals? How have you accomplished them? My goals are ever evolving as I evolve. So the goals I make are a moving target it seems. It can be frustrating to never accomplish them however, it pushes me to continue striving for greatness.

Why is working out important to you? What keeps you motivated to pursue health? Working out has always been a luxury I never afforded myself. My time and financial outlay was always allocated to everything else in my life but me. I was raised that these pursuits for myself are selfish. It has been a hard process to overcome that negative "tape" that plays are realize, I am worthy. I am enough.

What is one of your favorite or most memorable moments so far at Bodyshop Athletics X? My most memorable moments are those where I have a breakthrough...getting measure...having a breakdown. Those types of interactions might be seen as moments people would rather forget. I think that being vulnerable in a safe place is essential for making real change. BodyshopX  allows for that. There is no judgement.

How would you describe your experience at Bodyshop Athletics X to a friend?  Maybe I was in the right place in my life to gain all Jason and his team has to offer. I would tell a friend that health is not something you can get with out work. Doing this kind of work though in a strong, safe environment matters most.

Is there anything you would like to mention? Come ready to work. There is no time for 1/2 effort. Bring your game every time you come.
