April Athlete of the Month - Ben Hunsberger

At Wilcox Wellness & Fitness, we love celebrating our community members who show up, put in the work, and inspire those around them. This month, we are thrilled to highlight Ben Hunsberger as our April Athlete of the Month!
​

Since joining Wilcox, Ben has made incredible strides in fitness, strength, and balance, discovering muscles he never even knew existed! While he continues working on applying these skills to everyday tasks, his progress is undeniable.

One of the most impressive things about Ben is his ability to embrace challenges head-on. His favorite exercise? Box jumps onto the plyo boxes! “That’s a real mind-over-matter thing for me,” he says. On the flip side, mountain climbers remain his least favorite, but he pushes through, knowing the benefits outweigh the struggle.
​

Beyond the physical gains, Ben takes pride in paying attention to the nuances of each exercise, soaking in every tip and demonstration from our dedicated trainers, Bree, Tyler, and Allison. Their focus on technique and continual improvement is truly inspiring!
​

Before committing to a healthy lifestyle, Ben appreciated how much work went into both getting fit and staying fit. “It's a lot of work to get fit. It’s also a lot of work to stay fit, but it's easier to stay motivated.” And motivated he is! His goal is simple but powerful: to keep doing what he loves—hiking, fly-fishing, tackling home projects, and staying active for years to come.

When asked who inspires him most, Ben doesn’t hesitate. He admires those who overcome life-threatening diseases, people who choose kindness despite hardships, and individuals who selflessly serve in the armed forces. This deep appreciation for resilience and dedication fuels his own commitment to health and wellness.
​

For Ben, Wilcox Wellness & Fitness is more than just a place to work out—it’s a family. “I look forward to every class, even the ones I know will kick my ass, because my instructors and my classmates are family. We care about one another.”
​

His advice for anyone considering a fitness journey?

“Take the leap. Sign up. Stick it out through the tough stuff. And no, you are never finished.”

Congratulations, Ben, on being our April Athlete of the Month! Your dedication, perseverance, and incredible spirit make our Wilcox community stronger. Keep up the amazing work!
