Tell us about your fitness journey. How did you come to Farmgirlfit?

Several years ago I really got into running and making healthier choices in my life. Fitness and good health became more important to me as I got older. In addition to running, I have enjoyed biking, hiking and working out in a gym. For the past couple of years I have been searching for a gym I could really connect with...a place where I could work out with a group of people that I feel comfortable with and who would motivate me and hold me accountable for my fitness goals.

I had never heard about Farmgirlfit, nor did I know anyone who was a member. I simply noticed the facility when I would drive by it…one day I decided to stop and check it out! I am sure glad I did! Since joining I feel motivated and successful at achieving noticeable results in my overall fitness level. The staff truly cares about me and how I’m doing. People know my name and I know theirs and working out with this group is fun and challenging. I have gained more confidence in myself and I look forward to my workouts!

What has been your greatest fitness/performance accomplishment so far?

The first time I did a “double-under” was pretty exciting!

What are your next health and fitness goals?

I am wanting to focus on weight-loss as well as strengthening and conditioning. I look forward to running once the weather improves.

Who/what inspires you to be fit?

I want to be able to keep up with my kids and grandkids as we all get older!

Favorite exercise at FGF is? Least favorite?

My favorite is Squats…Least favorite, Plate Pushes!

When the Grind is kicking my butt, I’m thinking…

How good I am going to feel when this is over! 

My favorite thing about Farmgirlfit is:

The people! Great coaches, great staff, fun members, and people who care.

How has the rest of your life been influenced/impacted by Farmgirlfit?

It has given me more confidence and energy.

When you're not pumping iron at FGF, what does the rest of your life look like?

I love to hike, bike and generally do things outdoors with my husband and family.

My happy place is:

Our cabin in the woods!

Guilty pleasure:

Chocolate…followed by more chocolate!

I’m proud…

Of my family.

Any advice for new members or your fellow farmgirls?
