Updated: 7/19/21 So…read morehappy to say I completed another 6 week challenge! I was so nervous but in the final week I was able to lose the weight I needed to move on to challenge #5! Here's my story: Signing up January 2021 as my New Years resolution was a no brainer. I had gained over 100 lbs since 2018! Initially, I didn't want to spend almost $500 with not being fully committed, but for my health and being a couple years to 40 I knew carrying all this excess weight was not doing anything for my future other than getting one foot closer to the grave. When I began, COVID-19 was full blown and Monterey county was still in the purple tier. We had masks and were outdoors everyday five days a week at 5am! I was so out of shape. Couldn't jump, couldn't burpee couldn't jog. Here I am going into my FIFTH challenge over 90lbs lighter! I can do a burpee, sprint and jump like a frog! I never regret one day of this challenge and this program. I never regret the workouts. I never regret getting back my health. I have a total of 7 challenges to complete, but I will succeed. I'm doing this for me and it feels good!

I joined and was quickly welcomed by the other gym members. The 9:30am class was truly a safe space without judgment where I could workout and learn the CrossFit movements. There was a learning curve but the coaches always helped me modify and scale the workout to best fit my needs and met me where I was at physically. I've made some great friends and looked forward to coming every morning!

I am always greeted when I walk in. Check in is quick. The reason I don't give it five stars is that the equipment in the cardio area has often been broken when I've been there. With the number of members that they have, the gym should keep the equipment in good repair. A year ago, I signed up with a personal trainer to get out of my sedentary pudginess. Although he was friendly, I wasn't making much progress. I do have some mobility issues to overcome, and he never pushed me. After he quit the gym, I got a new trainer, Brianna, a cute, tiny, young thing less than half my age. But I have to say, she's great! She listens to my goals, and despite my limitations, she pushes me to make progress. As a woman, I appreciate having a female trainer who takes me seriously regardless of my appearance. She has always been very professional, yet she has a friendly manner. I like her style! I've noticed that she's the only female trainer there. In the world of macho and muscle in the gym, I feel much more at ease with her as my trainer. If you, like me, are seeking to get into shape, and are a bit shy about being so out of shape, see if you can sign up with Brianna. Get in shape at In Shape!
