Meet Bobbie, Rail Stop Fitness’ September 2023 Spotlight Athlete. Bobbie joined over a year ago, after coming to our Bring A Friend Saturday with a friend. Although she was a bit hesitant after seeing the CrossFit Games on TV, she enjoyed that initial workout and made her Free Intro Appointment, starting our Foundations Series shortly after. Prior to joining, she always enjoyed exercise, but as she says, “I never pushed myself out of my comfort zone.” Since then, she has been a regular afternoon attendee and says, “I’m enjoying the movements and accomplishments I’m achieving.”
Bobbie points out that the biggest goal she’s achieved since starting is, “committing to a program and still enjoying it a year later!” She says her perspective on strength training has completely changed, and she’s able to complete workouts with movements she never thought she’d be able to do. Bobbie’s favorite movement in the gym is the deadlift, stating, “I really feel different muscles working.”
What Bobbie most loves about the gym is the community! “Everyone is fantastic and that is what motivates me to keep coming back.” “We don’t have the fancy amenities, but we have an amazing sense of community that will help you succeed regardless of your fitness level.” An excellent example of this community are Bobbie’s workout buddies, Iris and Raven. “Raven will push me outside of my comfort zone and Iris is the best motivator!”
When asked what she’d tell someone who is considering starting at Rail Stop Fitness, Bobbie noted, “you will feel welcome and there is always someone next to you that wants to help you succeed.” Adding, “this is your fitness journey and your time to change your mindset is now!” Congratulations and thank you to Bobbie for being our September Athlete Spotlight and sharing your fitness journey story!
