What’s one interesting thing about you that other members may not know?
That I am in veterinary medicine, going to graduate in 2015 hoping to practice mixed animal practice. But along with my scientific side I am also have an interest in guitar and piano.
What is your most memorable moment at Synergy Strength?
My most memorable moment was talking to Jason about not being able to do a pull up, and he replied “well, let’s get you some bands!”. From that moment on I have felt so incredibly strong, just because I can no work on my pull up strength!
When you talk about Synergy Strength with friends, what do you brag about?
I brag about how the classes are run, and all of the attention the trainers give us; it makes me feel like I won’t hurt myself because there are people around constantly correcting you, but giving you the most encouraging and positive feedback at the same time. I brag about how many classes are offered, and I brag about learning to do Olympic weight lifting moves J
What does #synergystrong mean to you?
When I see or hear #synergystrong I think of the community that I have grown a part of, and the amazing, encouraging, brave, talented and incredibly strong people that surround me at synergy.
What is you favorite aspect of Synergy Strength?
I really like the group classes, but I have really grown to like the gymnastics classes, they make me feel like I am doing something bigger and better, almost into training again. Perhaps that is my favourite aspect; that Synergy makes you feel like you achieve your goals every time you step foot in the door.
Best Lifts:
I really like squatting (not sure if those count) but my best squat is 125 lbs J.
I also like dead lifts- and right now I believe my best lift is 95 lbs.
