About — The Gym 518

Today marks my ONE YEAR anniversary at THE GYM and I have never felt stronger or healthier in my life!! So... I Could write a book on how THE GYM has changed my life. I will start by saying I have never been the “gym” kind of girl. All the different kind of gyms I have tried throughout my life never gave me results that I wanted. I always felt confused. I didn’t know how to workout and/or the correct form or how to move every part of my body for every part of the workout in order to get the correct result and to avoid injury. Above all that, there is also.... GYM 518 is the only gym that has ever taken the time to: 1: Ryan Holderman made me feel comfortable the very first time I entered the gym, to get the information I needed to “think” about joining. He directed me on how to get started, with a warm smile that made me feel welcomed and comfortable being in there. 2: I was referred to call Lauren Brown, one of the personal trainers there. Not knowing what to expect, we made an appointment to meet and discuss- my present activity, my life style, my diet, any health concerns, my goals and/or purpose for wanting to workout. We discussed my weaknesses and strengths, and my last exercise experience. “This my friends, I have never found!!” After a quick test on my strength, balance and form Lauren got me to commit to coming in the next day. From that first day forward, with my goals in mind and the reason for me being there, she has guided, motivated and encouraged me every single step of the way!!! Lauren never fails to push me beyond what I thought I could ever achieve, and praises me for my success...even when I may have had (in my mind) a bad or weak day. 3: I have been brought from not knowing how to do an exercise (and there were many) to full awareness of the correct way. I know the correct form, and I’m mindful of what muscle groups I should and shouldn’t be feeling during all activities. The the trainers are sure to correct your form both verbally and physically by placing you where you need to be and explaining why and where you should feel it. Trainers never leave the group, they are on % 5: I never get bored at GYM518 because they put a lot of time into planning the workout. It is always different and they are sure to involve all muscle groups, with the focused body area of the day, along with some cardio and ending with stretches after each workout. It always feels well rounded when I’m done.⚡️ 6: GYM518 works very hard to helping you reach your goals...and if you give it your all... you will!!! 4: My first time there the trainers and the gym members made me feel like family, welcomed and comfortable to be there, and comfortable with my ability as a beginner and in my progression. The trainers know my name, who I am, what I do for work. They know when I’m on my game and when I’m off. Lauren is always aware when I’m there and when I’m not...and will check in with me to be sure all is ok. 4: It is always fun, high, positive energy. Everyone is friendly, and we support each other. If you don’t know anyone, you will very quickly and you will feel welcomed and comfortable no matter what your experience level is. GYM518 is a happy place. ...Who doesn’t want that!!! 7: I love GYM 518... it is now my happy place. I recommend it to EVERYONE!! It has physically and mentally changed my life. ☀️ ⭐️ THANK YOU, Ryan Holderman for this amazing place, that gathers amazing people together! Thank you also for helping me when I want to slack and keeping me laughing in the process..(I still think your the funniest and the quickest to humor) ⭐️ Lauren Brown ...THANK YOU!! for believing in me from the first day I walked in. You have had faith in me from the beginning. You have motivated me and believed in me and pushed me while at the same time, recognizing when I have reached my limit...and helping me with just- - “one more” You have been my physical fitness rock. You never fail to check in with me when I don’t show up, feeling ill, or feeling muscle sore.. You have changed my life in so many ways. You have helped me reach all my goals. I remember the text I sent you about 4 months-in, saying... “The moment when you look in the mirror and you say to yourself … What? Are those my legs?” You helped me reach goals...beyond my goal...and now I have new goals:))) This is a long one but if your still with me.. we all know the proven facts about exercise, it keeps our bodies strong and healthy, but don’t forget that it also keeps our minds strong and healthy. When I walk out of GYM518... as hard as it is on some days. I feel alive...mind, body and soul!! More...
