Roxy ready to permanently transform her body!
There have been very few times when I can honestly say something or someone has changed my life. Squeeze Studio Fitness has done that for me and more.
3 months after joining Squeeze ready for medical school!
As a former cubicle-dweller and current graduate student, spending time behind a desk or on a couch, eating take-out and drinking beers every day had become the norm. Also, I could no longer rely on high school sports or the metabolism of my college days to counteract all of my less-than-healthy habits. Naturally, I gained fat and lost muscle mass steadily, reaching an overweight BMI range and feeling lethargic, moody and unconfident.
I especially didn’t enjoy spending so much time finding something to wear that still fit my body!Following several stints at other gyms and failed attempts at workout plans on my own, it was finally time to pull the trigger. I faced my fears, called Shannon and went in for my first consultation. She measured me (I covered my eyes), had me do a fit test (I gasped for air) and signed me up for the next 6:00AM group training class (Yikes!).
After struggling through the first week of the most challenging and most intense workouts I have ever done, I was hooked. I didn’t think it was possible, but I had the “Squeeze addiction.” All of the trainers were so supportive and positive and the people I worked out with came from all walks of life and with all different levels of fitness - motivating me to work even harder.
I began coming to Squeeze for classes 3-6 days a week and cleaned up my diet according to Shannon’s suggestions, feeling stronger with every session and more positive after each week. After only 3 months, I lost 6 pounds, over 6 total inches and 5% body fat! Since then, my endurance has skyrocketed, I sleep better, my muscles are even stronger and my body is more toned and flexible than it has ever been. Most importantly, I feel happy and confident every day – ready to take on the world!
My friends and family noticed the drastic change in me immediately, so much so that my boyfriend Mike joined the group training himself and has seen amazing progress in his cardiovascular and muscle fitness. It’s incredible to be able to improve ourselves as a couple and to share an important part of our lives with each other – our health.
Mike (Roxy's boyfriend) saw her results and jumped on board!
Now we get to do hardcore workouts and drip with sweat together!I cannot say enough how unique Squeeze Studio Fitness is. Because classes are offered all times of the day, we can maintain a consistent workout schedule and keep making gains. We are always encouraged to do our best, to push ourselves beyond what we thought we could do, to make everything count – and we do it, because we actually want to!
Shannon Carney - Her intense, “don’t quit” training sessions are what made me keep coming to Squeeze in the first place. You’ll never figure out how she fits so much into one hour. Two words: Booty Bootcamp aka ASS CLASS (Monday’s at 6:30 p.m.) – your butt will thank you.
David Tekiela - Seriously? It’s all about the guns, baby. He challenges you to lift heavier and swing higher. His Kettlebell Bootcamp will make you feel like a weekend warrior, no matter who you are.
Kelly Hendrix - Her cerebral, focused workouts will keep you and your muscles guessing, since she is the queen of muscle isolation. Her CORECamp is super-fun and works your whole body before you even know it!
Not only are each one of the trainers extremely professional, personable, brilliant and hilarious but they have also become our friends. Working to face and overcome what we thought were our limits and weaknesses as well as to celebrate our successes so personally every day that we are there have made them a lasting part of our lives.
They are, in short, THE BEST at what they do.
They have changed our bodies and attitudes so much that we are different, better people today. As Mike and I go on to medical school, we will be positive role models for our peers and patients and help them make the same healthy lifestyle choices we have.
Thank you Squeeze!
Clients for life, the Future Dr. Racquel (AKA Roxy) & Mike
