Lisa’s transformation story is nothing short of amazing! Full of grit, determination, and never giving up! We’re so proud of you, Lisa! 💪🏼💙🎉
“My fitness journey began about 18 months ago when I walked into Epic, feeling completely lost and lacking confidence in myself. I had previously gone to another gym, but because I didn’t know proper lifting techniques, I ended up suffering a major rotator cuff tear that required surgery. After that experience, the thought of lifting again made me extremely nervous.
When I first joined Epic, I had no intention of getting a personal trainer. In fact, during my first few visits, I spent most of my time on the treadmill because the equipment intimidated me. One day, I spoke with someone at the front desk, and they suggested I sit down with Kierstin to talk about my fitness goals and nutrition habits. Needless to say, I walked out that day signed up for training sessions with her twice a week — and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
Kierstin has taught me so much about lifting, nutrition, and proper form to help prevent future injuries. Since starting my journey, I’ve seen incredible changes not only in my physique, but also in my energy levels and overall quality of life. Everyday tasks around the house feel easier because my body simply moves better and feels stronger.
Epic has become so much more than just a gym to me. The moment I walk through the doors, I feel at home. It’s my “me time” — a place where I can put my phone on Do Not Disturb, turn up my music, and focus completely on myself. Honestly, the hardest days for me now are my rest days!
This gym has truly been life-changing in so many ways. Not only am I healthier and stronger than I’ve ever been, but fitness has become a genuine passion of mine. In fact, I was so inspired by my experience that I decided to earn my personal training certification so I can help others reach their full potential and feel as empowered as I do today.“
