TRAIN with Your Tribe - #ShellysStory

"Just like me

It’s been nearly a couple of months now at Wilcox and all I can say is… it has been great!  At first, the sight of all of the fit people throwing, pushing, jumping and lifting was intimidating! 

Now I realize that all are just like me - working people who are taking time out of their busy schedules to get fit. 

They are all figuring out the best time of day, the best class, their favorite group workout, their favorite trainer (note - they are ALL my favorite at Wilcox), and assessing their personal workout goals - and they all started the same way I did…. one class at a time.

My very first training session was GPT1.  Each exercise was thoroughly explained by the trainer, including ideal posture and its purpose.  From the first minute of this session 30-minute session to the last, I learned so much! I may not have done it stronger than the person next to me, I may not have finished the same amount of reps as the person next to me - but I did them all.  
​
Fast forward to last week, about a month and a half later - I finished the 12-days of fitness workout with Katie!  I would not have finished that 7 weeks earlier.

What advice would I give to someone just starting this training journey?  Figure out who you are, what you can accomplish and do it on purpose. Start easy, learn the right way to train and then push yourself each day.  Push your boundaries - do another rep, pick up a heavier weight or sign up for a harder class. I never would have thought that I would like boxing, but after trying it - I feel stronger!

For me, the hardest part of the Wilcox training program is over - I made changes to my lifestyle and I have stuck with it.  I believe that I'm on the right track to maintaining a healthy lifestyle and hitting the targets I need to improve my health.  I love my workouts and especially love the people who are encouraging my journey.
