I’m stronger, I have more energy and mobility.
Do you have a new “So That” to keep you motivated?
My motivation is to be agile to do things I enjoy like traveling and going to places, to be able to work with children and sitting on the floor with kids, to dance, one of my passions.
Share a favorite memory of your time with Get You In Shape.
It was with the 5:30 am group, 150 walking lunge around the park holding a weighted bar.

I like the balls because is challenging but also moves the body; it is a good combination in my opinion.
What is your least favorite exercise?
Burpees is not my favorite and I don’t like the yoga press.

Winter- the low temperature does not scare me, the wind does. I do not like windy days.

I like early morning, 6:30 or 8.
Who was the toughest “meanest” trainer (past or present)

Why do you choose to continue to be a part of Get You In Shape after all this time?
I like exercising in the park, I like to be in contact with nature, the community, the friends I met during all the years, the positive attitude, the reasons why we workout; it is a great group of people.
