February Member of the Month

Congratulations to February Member of the Month, Cheryl!

Coach Jenny says, "Cheryl’s consistency has truly paid off. She is a fantastic example of starting at the beginning and putting in the hard work to see real results. From hanging from the pull-up bar to being able to do a full Turkish get-up and perfecting her kettlebell swing, her progress is impressive. And, she always has a smile on her face. "

Way to go, Cheryl! Here's more about Cheryl's journey:

What motivates you to be consistent with your training? The biggest motivator for me is that I truly love Dragonfly. It is such a great place and all the people make it even better. I want to be here.

What has strength training taught you? Strength training does so much more than make you stronger. It has taught me that I can do hard things. With patience, you can reach your goals. 

It is also a great stress reliever for me. Coming to class feels like therapy. We all have so much going on in our daily lives. I can walk into Dragonfly wound up and leave with a whole different mind set. 

What was intimidating? I guess it would have to be the barbell! It requires a lot of strength! I am in awe of the women at Dragonfly and how strong they are. I am working to get to the point where I can do a bench press! It felt great to use the barbell for a deadlift and now I am finally able to do an overhead press. With each class, I am able to do a little more. 

Progress is personal. Take it one class at a time. Stick with it and you will definitely see results! 

Wise words Cheryl! We love this!  Congrats!

Each month Dragonfly coaches nominate members who are standing out, overcoming obstacles, and giving it their all. It’s always a hard choice to decide upon one!
