She takes responsibility for what she needs to do to take care of her body, she recognizes the benefits of her actions, and that motivates her to keep up her momentum through consistent actions.

We are all so proud of Laurie and all that she has achieved since joining our community, and we are so happy to have the opportunity to support her in this journey. 
​

we move, and learning how to do exercises with proper form and technique so that we can work against the challenges that we face on a daily basis.  When we hear from our clients how their commitment to their training impacts how they move both inside and outside of the gym we can’t help but get very, very excited, and that’s why we just love naming a Client of the Month each month.​

challenging, effective, or helps us in the undoing of the compensations that occur through the stress that life puts upon our physical selves.  ​

Angela demonstrates her commitment to her TRAINING by learning how to recognize when she’s using proper form or not, and when she is unsure of the proper technique she’s never afraid to ask, and this is precisely what allows her to get better each day.

We know that getting started in a gym can be scary and intimidating, and that’s why I’m so proud of the incredible community of people, just like Angela, who make up Wilcox Wellness & Fitness.  When I asked Angela what she’d tell someone who is ready to commit to health & fitness but isn’t sure where to start, or may be nervous about making that first step she said “As someone who would have never thought to join a group training class, I would tell someone just to try it. By just trying it, they're starting their first step.”  And I hope you listen to her advice.

We are here to support you every step of the way, and we take our promise of meeting you where you are very seriously.

It’s that time again when we get to celebrate the client of the month, and this month I am so happy to be celebrating Rachel Garland. 

Rachel joined us in January 2020 with the goal of feeling good, having more energy and being stronger, and there is no doubt that Rachel has achieved each of those goals.

Getting started in a gym can be incredibly intimidating, and Rachel was feeling that too, but she had support behind the scenes who provided her with the encouragement to get started.  For that I couldn’t be more grateful, because it’s through this support that Rachel found the confidence deep down to show up on that very first day.
 
Rachel committed to herself right from the beginning.  She relied upon support inside and outside of the gym when her anxiety got the best of her and she kept on showing up for herself.  As we got to know each other and Rachel’s confidence grew, the insecurities began to fade away, and Rachel’s time at the gym became her time.  Time that she truly valued.
 
In March of 2020 we all know what happened.  The pandemic hit.  Rachel is a teacher, and one other thing that we all know is that teachers had to pivot harder than almost anyone.  To be honest, even as a brand-new business realizing that I needed to find my way through a pandemic I felt for teachers (and healthcare workers) more than anyone.  I had it easy in comparison.  Teachers had to figure out how to teach remotely, which in itself was something completely new for teachers to figure out, but they also were faced with the worry for some of those kiddos who they knew didn’t have the best of circumstances at home.  The start of the pandemic was a tough time for families, and teachers were more aware than anyone about the struggles that some of their students were going to face by not coming to school each day.
 
Rachel never used this as an excuse.  It wasn’t an excuse to stop showing up for her students, and it wasn’t an excuse to stop showing up for herself either.  One day Rachel called me.  She was feeling a little stressed about making time for getting to the gym.  At first, I thought she was worried about finding the time with everything that was going on, but the real stress was coming from her guilt in cancelling and rescheduling her sessions as she tried to figure out how to fit it into her schedule.  In true Rachel fashion she was worried about the impact that this was having on me and my trainer team.  I reminded Rachel that we create our scheduling process with a purpose.  We allow our clients to cancel and reschedule with just one hour notice knowing that life often doesn’t work out the way we planned when we woke up that morning, and in the case of this pandemic, what we had planned could change hour to hour, and that’s okay.  What matters is that you keep working on figuring it out and prioritizing what is most important.  And that’s exactly what Rachel was doing.  I assured her that she can and should reschedule as many times as she needed to until she figured out how to get to her training sessions for the week.  With that reassurance Rachel leveled up even more.  Some days she would email letting me know that she may be a few minutes late, but she was on her way, and each and every time she showed up.  Period. 
 
Rachel’s progress at the gym hasn’t just been about physical results.  It has also been about mental results.   Rachel’s biggest accomplishment has been all about breaking through her own insecurities and anxieties about working out.  As a result, her self-confidence has grown immensely, as well as her ability to advocate for herself.  She has made herself a priority and that has been huge!!! 

“I can't count the number of times I psyched myself out before I finally pushed past my fear and just DID it!

My time at Wilcox has taught me that I can do hard things and, moreover, that I am worth the effort of doing those hard things. I have more drive, more determination, and I'm kinder to myself.”

And that’s what it’s all about!  We love seeing the ripple effect that committing to health & fitness has for our clients, and Kendray is no exception!  

​Kendray, we are so proud of you and so happy to be on this journey with you!  Keep up the great work!

​Kate has worked hard in her training program since day 1. Every time Kate comes in to train she is ready to work hard and give it her very best. Kate accepts every challenge that we present to her whether that's tackling a new movement, moving faster in conditioning movements, or increasing the resistance and focus in strength movements. She is always looking to add that extra 1% in every training session and all of those incremental gains have really been adding up!
