Julieanne Matheson: April 25 - Member of the Month

Congratulations to Julieanne (Julz) Matheson our April Member of the Month and newest 10 Year Member.

Julz has been a regular at the 6am Outdoor Body Blitz & Box Blast Sessions as well as the 6:30pm Monday night Box Blast. She has also attended numerous Run Events, Winter Challenges and Body Transformations over her 10 years as a Key to Life Member.

Julz has been an absolute pleasure to train and always gets the most out of every session. With this attitude and her active approach to life is why she is our KTL Member of the Month for April.

A huge congratulations to you Julz on both your 10 years of KTL Membership and on being this month's member of the month, you are amazing .

Over to you Julz:

1. What motivated you to start your health and fitness journey with Key to Life?

Well I guess 10 years ago my kids were 11 and 8, so back then I started because I could bring them along to the outdoor sessions. It was time to get motivated and fit to keep up with them.

2. What is it that keeps you attending your Key To Life session or sessions on a regular basis?

The variety in the sessions, no two boxing or boot camp sessions are the same, you’re always in for a surprise & we have such great fellow KTL members who keep it entertaining while the trainer works us hard.

3. What is your favourite Key to Life Training session or favourite exercise and why?

Boxing goes without saying. I have some awesome regular partners who keep me accountable and train hard with me.

4. If you use any Key To Life recipes, what is your favourite?

I’d have to say I haven’t used a KTL recipe in awhile, however their protein balls were always delicious.

5. What is your biggest accomplishment you have achieved during your time with us at Key to Life?

I have achieved a few big accomplishments over the years. Half marathon in Queenstown, various fun runs, obstacle courses. Now days it’s staying motivated and consistent that’s my biggest accomplishment.

6. What advice would you give somebody just starting at Key to Life?

Be ready for a great workout while having a banter along the way.

Keep consistent and you’ll see the benefits. Both mentally and physically.
