How long have you been training at ADAPT Performance & Training?
I have been training with Jeremy at ADAPT for 2 years and 7 months.
Why did you choose to train at ADAPT?
I chose ADAPT because Jeremy works here. He is an excellent trainer who focuses on helping you reach your goals over time with exercise and lifestyle changes. He provides encouragement and positive reinforcement to his clients. I have referred him to coworkers and friends who still work out with Jeremy today.
I like the personalized one-on-one training being offered in a gym without competing for equipment or space with other members. I like the inclusive services being offered at ADAPT and started working with Brandon last year to help manage menopause symptoms as well as weight loss.
What goals have you accomplished working with Jeremy?
I am stronger. I never focused on building muscle. With weight lifting and doing cardio I have reshaped my body by adding muscle and losing fat. My clothes fit better. My waistline is smaller, but my arms and legs are bigger. I have lost 17lbs, but during that time I also lost weight and put it back on. Weight loss is not linear and requires continuous commitment to healthy lifestyle choices.
Do you have any advice for other members?
It was hard to make the financial commitment. I spent years putting my kids' needs and others before mine. I do not regret doing so, but life is about balance. When life is out of balance, the door opens for stress and anxiety. I am closing that door every day I chose to invest in myself.
