I joined Fit Club after having my second daughter. I realized being a little older, bouncing back to pre-pregnancy form wasn’t as easy as the first time. And I needed something more than the elliptical.


Since joining, the changes from my first workout, to my 100th and now my 1000th workout are immeasurable. My energy level, my mobility, my strength and my activities with our girls. And the nutritional side, learning about macros and making better food choices.


Getting to 1000 workouts hasn’t been a smooth road for me. Inconsistency has been my biggest downfall. There have been some career/job changes, I have a part-time evening and weekend job that I enjoy doing, raising young children, of course, the struggles of covid – getting and recovering from covid, and then getting it again, plus a few injuries over the past few years.


On the flip side, the best parts of this journey and what made it successful for me is the coaches, the members, and having a partner.


Each coach offers a positive, safe, environment where you feel comfortable being there. Having Jenn in the morning and her energy, her encouragement and her drive, makes my mornings. I don’t know if I would still be a 5 am’er if it wasn’t for her.


The members, I have made some really great friends here, we are together on blue and outside.


Since getting Brian to join with me, has boosted my motivation to come here and make it a routine. We push each other, challenge each other, make fun of each other. Friday night date night.


Looking back, I don’t think I would change how I became a member, because 5-10 years ago, I wasn’t ready to make a difference. I live a healthier lifestyle for my children and for myself. They see how hard we work and how sweaty we get. And they want to do it too.


And for anyone else, who thinks this isn’t for you, you would be surprised. It isn’t the workout that is the hard part, it’s the first time walking through the door.



 
 
 

I Remember My First Day at Fit Club


Where do I begin

I have been active my entire life

Ran 2 marathons in my younger years

Weight has always been an issue!

In 1996 I married my best friend and we have been together 26 years

In 1997 I was pregnant with my first child

It became a nightmare when I delivered my son and he passed away

And the weight stayed with me

Food was comfort

We were told not to have children and against all odds, we were blessed with 2 girls

1 in 1999

1 in 2000

Pregnancies were close together and the weight stayed I was embarrassed to be 268 pounds.

Joined a gym so our family could go and be active

The weight stayed the same

In 2005 we were hit with some shocking news that ripped my heart into pieces

I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis

The thoughts that ran through my head were. .....

OMG going to end up in a wheelchair with a 5-year-old and a 4-year-old

I was devastated, to say the least

After several doctors appointments and a tonne of medication, I am doing well

I remember my first day at Fit Club

I drove by it several times and thought I should try it

And then drove by again

But this time I stopped to ask questions...and before I knew it I was coming for my first class

And the as Jenn says...I drank the Kool-aid and have been hooked ever since

I started doing 3 classes a week

Then progressed to 5 and now I do at least 7 to 8 classes a week.

With the pandemic, things certainly changed

It was a tough time working in an essential service place and not knowing what was going to happen.

I tried the virtuals but just couldn't get into them.

So when the gym opened I was so excited and started back.

I changed careers in 2021 left a company after nearly 20 years and joined a new place!

I can't even begin to think of all the people I have met through the gym

Some have become very important in my life. Christine Omeniuk is the best workout partner I could have. She is my saviour

She sees me struggling and is there to help me. She convinced me to try the belly Burn 9.0 and it was such an amazing experience

To all of you...u make getting up in the morning worth it. Thanks for the outpouring of support

You are all my heroes

To family thanks for believing in me

Your support means the world to me

And to the coaches of Fit Club

You truly are a tremendous team

Jenn your early morning energy is contagious and u just make working out fun

Thank you for your help when I need it

And to those of u thinking about joining a gym

If u have limitations and feel u wouldn't fit in


Just give it a try u might be surprised at what u can do.

We joined FitClub when RJ was at the old gym NLT at Chief Pegius approximately 5 years ago. Some of us lovingly referred to it as the dungeon.


Together, We have reached our 1000 workouts and are thrilled to join our fellow members on the wall.


We can’t say we didn’t have a few struggles along the way. Since we are both in the over 60 age group. I think our age brings specific health issues and of course the pandemic. They say your age is just a number. Although that’s true your mind says you are younger than you are, but your body tells you something different. The FitClub coaches have encouraged us to work to the best of our abilities, trying to be 1% better every day and that mindset has really helped us achieve our goals.


For those of you that are striving for your 1000 workouts, keep going, work as hard as you can, have a little fun and you will get to that number in no time. Just remember it’s your personal journey on your timeline.



If it weren’t for FitClub I feel we would have more difficulty with completing those household tasks that take strength and stamina. As you age you want to be in the best shape you can be, so we continue to push each other each and every workout with the help of our Fit Fam.
