Carole, is just a lovely human being, but beyond that, it has been my pleasure to watch her, become stronger, over the last two years! Her overall strength, cardio endurance, agility, mobility, and core strength has increased greatly! Carole’s core strength in the last six months has been “Pure Dead Brilliant” as they say in Scotland. Core muscles are a group of muscles, that stabilize and control the pelvis and spine, which affects both the upper and the lower body. A strong core promotes more efficient movement.  As we age, degenerative changes happen in our bodies, especially in our spines, which is why a strong core is extremely important.

Carole has attended the most classes since quarantine began. She has been incredibly consistent with our zoom classes, attending almost every single day.  Before Covid, Carole was a regular in our Circuit Class, and if her schedule allowed, she attended, On the Go Classes, and our outdoor Bootcamps.  She is never afraid to try new things in class, for example when she showed up to one of our bootcamp classes, the workout consisted of tire flips with our massive tractor tire, named “Big Bertha”.  In true Carole fashion she jumped right in there, and gave it a shot!  She has also, participated in slamming tires with sledge hammers, sand races, hill running drills, and a multitude of our other “out of the box” exercises. I personally love her attitude towards classes, and the way she lives her life……. If you never try, you will never know, so just do it!

It is incredibly easy to allow every excuse in the book to keep you from reaching your goals. I can guarantee you, that things will not go as you planned, you will stumble more than once, and you will encounter obstacles, on your journey in health and in life…………..but the ones that reach their goals are the ones that never give up! Please remember, any small step in the right direction is a huge step, just show up! Be STRONG like Carole.
