Introducing our Gym M.O.M. (Member of the Month) for May 2023 … Carolyn Collins!

Since joining us, Carolyn has been one of our most consistent evening members, always showing up with a positive “can do” mindset and a smile which can light up a room! Because of this, selecting her as gym MOM was unanimous by all of her coaches.

We are thrilled to have Carolyn as part of our community and look forward to seeing her achieve her fitness goals with us!

Q: What made you decide to start functional fitness training?
Started taking group classes at the YMCA, and my mental and physical health improved drastically, but soon realized I needed something challenging with flexibility. After attending various gyms, expos, running groups, workouts, workshops, 5ks (from which I found R3vive), I learned that functional fitness is optimal for what I was looking for: Strength, mobility, endurance, and aesthetics (lol).

Our next programming cycle runs from July 12th to September 12th. It's an 8-week cycle, so it's a bit shorter than the last one. We'll be bringing back some Olympic lifts and continuing with the A-B week progressions. The post Functional Fitness Training Block: Resurgence Cycle appeared first on R3VIVE FITNESS.
