‍

1. To do a pull-up
2. To do push-up
3. Get abs
‍

• List your achievements you’ve had since beginning at Strength Camp

- I can do push ups! Still working on that pull-up and still working on getting abs.

‍

• What compliments have you received since joining Strength Camp?

- A random lady complimented that I have nice legs, people asking for my diet plan and exercise regimen, and “you’re looking lean!”

‍

• What is the biggest obstacle you’ve faced in your journey? 

- Getting enough protein in my diet.

‍

• What is your favorite thing about Strength Camp? What makes it unique from other gyms?

- The coaching for sure. It’s nice to offload the mental work to people who have been doing fitness for much longer than me.

- I also like having Pat and Jeremy push me to lift more; they are two coaches who are most invested in my success and improvement. If I was on my own, I’d be too worried about injury to challenge myself.
