Do you have a success story to share?

Taylor:

• • 2017/2018 were rough years for me in terms of the choices I was making for myself in regards to not just fitness, but also my overall health.  Thankfully after a nudge, mental shift, and a lot of work; I am in the best place I’ve ever been mentally, physically and emotionally!  No matter what your health/fitness goals are, don’t ever underestimate how capable you truly are!  Be thankful for all that your body is able to do and work towards those goals because you want to better yourself each and every day!

Mark:

• • I broke my fibula last May and have gotten very close to my old maxes within one year afterwards!
