AUGUST 2019 MEMBER OF THE MONTH: Keri Lehman

 

  • What got you started with Prime Fitness?

 

I wanted to get back in shape after having my second child. I wanted a place that would hold me accountable, push me to believe that I could do hard things, and a place that would encourage me. I saw a Facebook post about the 21 day trial at Prime Fitness and I decided to go for it. After one session, I knew Prime was the place for me.

 

  • What’s your motivation?

 

My children. I want to be the best version of myself for them. And of course all of the trainers at Prime. I never knew I was capable of accomplishing the things I have accomplished so far, like a 70 pound goblet squat! Their constant encouragement motivates me to push myself to be the best, strongest person I can be.

 

  • What positive changes have you seen in yourself since starting?

 

My energy, my attitude, my patience, my nutrition… EVERYTHING! Prime has taught me to push myself beyond what I thought I was capable of doing. It is also a great therapy session after a long day of teaching high school kids!

 

  • What’s your biggest tip or piece of advice for someone who is just beginning their fitness journey?

 

Just do it. Believe in yourself. You can do anything you set your mind to. Yes it will be tough and there will be days where you feel like giving up, but I promise you will not regret showing up and staying committed.

 

  • What is your favorite part of working out at Prime Fitness?

 

The trainers, the members, the atmosphere, all of it. Prime is not just a “gym” for me, it is like my second home and I look forward to each and every class (even if it includes a 500 meter row or some crazy amount of ball slams)! I am so blessed to call everyone at Prime Fitness my family.

 

  • What is your favorite thing to do in your free time?

 

What free time!? Just kidding. I love spending time with my husband and children! And of course getting in as much pool time as possible!

 

  • What is your favorite family tradition?

 

Going to the beach every summer to visit my grandmother. It’s crazy and hectic, but some of my most favorite memories are made there.

 

  • What is something that you want to do in the next year that you have never done before?

 

A pull up! Without the bands!

 

  • What was the first concert you ever went to?

 

Sheryl Crow!!!!

 

  • If all your clothes had to be one color forever, what color would you pick?

 

Black! Everyone looks fabulous in black, right?!
