APRIL 2015 MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: ANN THOMAS

I have been working out at Excel for almost 5 years.  I like the small, family nature of the gym – very friendly and supportive members and staff. Ann Thomas pic

I’ve followed a fairly regular cardio fitness program for about as long as I can remember, but I had never done anything with weights until I started at Excel Fitness.  My fitness goals are to improve (or at least maintain!) muscle tone, flexibility, balance and strength.  I work out so that I can comfortably enjoy outdoor adventures such as hiking, biking, beach-combing, kayaking and canoeing.  I’m also trying to put off some of the physical ailments that seem to come along with old age for as long as possible.  And so far it’s working!

Heather is my trainer.  She does a great job of motivating me to do so much more than I would ever do on my own!  The workouts are challenging and varied.  Heather always asks for feedback and incorporates what I tell her into future sessions.  Working out with Heather has become a regular part of my weekly routine and I can’t imagine it being any other way!

Excel Fitness personal trainer, Heather Claflin-Coy adds, “I love working with Ann! Her commitment to fitness and personal training is continuously inspiring. Ann lives a very active lifestyle and appreciates that physical fitness is key in order to continue enjoying the activities she and her husband participate in. Furthermore, she models great behavior for individuals just beginning a new fitness routine and for those seasoned fitness veterans seeking to revitalize their exercise program and recommit to personal wellness goals!”
