As A Part of The Exercise Inc Team

What brought you to Exercise Inc? I was assisting my manager Kyle’s mom in physical therapy, helping her recover from an injury. I was explaining to her how I wanted to pursue a different career in the health and fitness field, rather than physical therapy. She told me her son has worked at Exercise Inc for multiple years. The concept of Exercise Inc sounded interesting, so I decided to walk in and introduce myself to Kyle. The gym had a position open, and the rest is history.

Why do you like being a personal fitness coach/ part of the Exercise Inc team? I enjoy helping clients reach their fitness goals, forming relationships with them, and genuinely caring for their health and wellness. Being a fitness coach is neat because I get to see the progress my clients make each week.

What is your favorite exercise? Why? EXL: This machine is great because it isolates the muscles in the low back and is beneficial for not only your back, but the core also.

What is your least favorite exercise? Why? Compound Row: This machine is very important because it works more than one muscle group. However, keeping the weight controlled is very difficult. Anyone who has tried it understands. It is a good pain. It is a pleasurable torment!
