WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY! Thanks girls for all the support and encouragement. Made it to 300 and feel great! Diane W. Not coming on a regular basis is NOT an option! This is my lifestyle now! Lori J. Thanks to Sheryl & Maggie, Thank you for always cheering me on no matter how much delay there is in between workouts. I just completed two weeks, 3 times a week, and already can see improvement in the fit of my clothes and endurance. Annette, thanks for helping correct the activity I was doing incorrectly. You all are what makes this place the right place for me! Thanks! Noreen Thanks for the words of wisdom and encouragement. I'm here for the long haul!! Di Nov 2008 - I hit a mental block a few months ago and quit coming. Figuring it was crazy to be donating my fee every month and not show up.I tried to quit. I knew I'd get resistance from Sheryl (which I did) but I was determined that it was useless to even try anymore. I was just going to be fat forever. Well, as fate would have it, I had forgotten that I'd signed up for a yearly membership until April 2009 - so I could continue to not come, but I'd still be paying. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to get me to start coming again - right away anyway - but it wasn't too long before my blue funk ended and I was ready to get started again. And lo-and-behold, I already had a welcoming and supportive gym to come back to before I changed my mind again! So hang in there ladies - no matter how long you've been away - it doesn't have to be forever. Janice T (We're so glad you came back again Janice!) Friday nite was awesome! Thanks Sheryl (and the rest of the girls) I'm back 2 weeks after surgery. Thanks for getting and keeping me in shape! 52 years old and stronger than I've ever been in my life!! Yah!! Kim B. I had been taking anti-inflammatories for 25 years for rheumatoid arthritis. Since being at EFFEX 180 (3 yr member), I no longer take any - no pain or swelling anymore! Gwen B. My pants are another size smaller - yippee! Marla My blood pressure has been managed by meds for over 10 years. The other day I was 130/85!! My doctor is so impressed, the only thing different in my life is the strength training. That's all, and that's all it takes!! Lynn O. I did the 8 week "Summer Sizzle" in May/June - lost 9 lbs and 9.5 inches. Still coming twice a week to maintain and have lost another 5 lbs and I feel fantastic! Thanks Sheryl for showing me my 'delts' again. You gals are amazing! Jamie M. I was a total couch potato before joining EFFEX 180. Today after only coming for two months, I was able to complete two circuits. I love this place and I love what it has done for my health and my self esteem. Marla A. Prior to coming to EFFEX 180 (about a year ago), my doctor was very concerned about the effects of my stress-filled life were having on me - my blood pressure was sky high! Though he recommended I consult with a professional to help me manage my stress better, the 'Scottish' in me was not willing to pay the $160/hour so I joined your studio instead. I am happy to report that at my last check up my blood pressure was considered to be on the normal to low side! Coming regularly to strength train here and do your Club Cardio classes has made the difference. Thanks! Nancy M. “Before I came here my hips ached every night, so every single night I needed to have a bath before bed or I couldn’t sleep. I have been working out at EFFEX 180 for a month now and the pain has disappeared.” Lesa B, May 28.08 "I feel stronger, I feel like I am doing something for myself, my body and my extended life! I know that if I keep doing this I know that I will reach my goals and that is more than weight loss. I know I now have those endorphins and halleluiah they are there now, they were just hiding! The core exercise I remember from my baseline test - I couldn't even raise my shoulders off the floor and now I can really do it. I can SEE the difference in the weight that I can lift now! I can see myself coming here for a long time...I like the atmosphere, the spa kind of feeling and I know that I can get in and out of here in an hour and not have to hang out at the gym for 2 - 2 1/2 hours." Kate S, Jun 02.08 "When I was checking the options I would look around and think I had done it a thousand times before - I would get going, then get lost and not really know what I am doing and just quit. It was all just too overwhelming. But you feel like you have to cheap out on the extra fees for personal training so you don't get it at all. I needed something personal. I didn't have the tools to understand how get the results that I wanted out of the workout. Also, I never really liked the co-ed environment because... I just don't. When I found the studio I thought "Oh I am going to be looked after here". I love that you guys do all the hard thinking work for me and train me on how to do it. Mind you I know that I am doing the work...it shows!" JoAnn V, Jun 05.08 "I don't know where I'd be today if I hadn't had started this program almost two years ago. I had always had back problems and it was getting worse and worse. Since I joined EFFEX 180 my back has improved immensely. I can actually bend over now without pain. I have more strength in my arms and even some definition! I meet my daughter at EFFEX 180 whenever I can and we enjoy working out together. At first I was a little reluctant to join a gym, but my daughter talked me in to it... and I'm very grateful! " Evelyn M, Jun 06.08 "I just wanted to share some encouraging news with you on the benefits I have derived from circuit training. I was diagnosed with MS back in the early 80's and have pretty much coasted through the disease process with few exceptions. I have been circuit training at EFFEX180 for the past 6 weeks and have noticed some marked improvements in my overall health. For the past 2-3 years I have been unable to vacuum or wash floors because of problems with my back. This past Saturday I was cleaning my house as usual and noticed that the carpets really needed a good vacuuming and the floors really needed washing. My husband who normally does these chores for me was in the backyard assembling a garden shed. I didn't want to disturb him, so I decided to pull out the vacuum and have a go at it myself with the intention of just vacuuming one room at a time. But before I knew it; the entire main floor was vacuumed and I wasn't in any discomfort. After a short break, I washed all the floors on the main level, again without any discomfort. Thanks Effex 180, you've given me a new lease on life!" Jacqueline M, Jun 10.08 "Though we love the above testimony please don't think you are doomed to doing all the work you once couldn't do - just because you are now a rock!" Coaches at EFFEX 180 "I can out-hike 12 & 13 year olds carrying a 12 lb pack up sandy hills for 4 km and not be tired! Thank you! EFFEX 180 Rocks!" Lori J, Jun.08 "I love the atmosphere & the music! Great facility & fabulous staff!" Lori V. "Your support & suggestions give me the incentive to keep coming & continue the benefits I have already experienced!!!" Dianne S. "The gym is beautifully decorated ! The machinery is stable and adjustable to fit a BMI of 50+. The private toilets, showers, and huge well lit seated vanity with make up counter is unique. Personalized attention everyday! Encouragement to show up! All this for less $ than the competition!" Ronda L."Thanks for the special exercise for arm flab... it works!" Lyn W. "Wow - seeing some great results! I feel stronger and have more energy already. My knees no longer creak and moan with strange noises when I go up the stairs. Thanks for the encouragement in meeting my fitness goals!" Cheryl K. "Woo hoo! 16 visits - I'm down 9 lbs with more energy than ever!" Lori B. "Strength training has improved my 73-year-old muscles and done wonders for my balance, endurance and all round well-being. The staff offers personalized and effective assistance!" Anne W. "I have slept so well since working out (at EFFEX 180). Menopause kept me awake, NOT ANYMORE!" Joy T. "Thanks for the boost in confidence ladies coming here makes me feel awesome!" Rebecca R. "Thanks to EFFEX 180 my golf game has changed tremendously! I used to only be able to drive maybe 165 - 170 yards at the most, I now drive consistently 200 yards plus. AMAZING! The golf game is just an added bonus as to how great I now feel everyday, Thank You!!" Joann V.
