April Member of the Month Interview: Jennifer Pittmon

1. What do you do outside of the gym? Career, hobbies, etc.!

I have been a RN for 31 years. I love working in the yard and with flowers which is where you will find me during the warm seasons. I volunteer with the Danville Master Gardeners as a Master Gardener. I have been married for almost 30 years and have two teenage sons while homeschooling my youngest.

2. How long have you been training with us?

I came the last week of September 2024 for friends week and joined.

3. What's been your biggest accomplishment since you began training with us?

My biggest accomplishment has been getting up and coming to the 5:00 am class several days a week!! I never thought I would be doing that. By doing it I have felt so much better and have more energy. I will have to say my burpee no longer looks like a fish flailing out of water!!!!

4. What's your favorite thing about being a member here?

Everyone is so encouraging. It a judgment free place to work out.

I believe most have said this but the community and the coaches. I have never been to a gym that you know everyone who is there. I have been to others where you walk in, do your own workout and leave where you never really spoke to anyone. The coaches are fantastic. They go over all the movements, help you to correctly do the exercises, and will always help you modify and scale the exercises.

5. What would you say to someone who is considering training with us?

I would encourage anyone of any age or fitness level to come and check it out. I tell them if I started at 52 and out of shape, anyone can. I tell them what I said in the answer above.
