Tracy Staples: March 23 - Member of the Month

Congratulations to Tracy Staples on being our March Member of the Month.


Tracy has been training with us for 9 months now and is super consistent with her Wednesday and Friday morning Outdoor Group Fitness Classes (Box Blast sessions). It is a pleasure to watch Tracy push herself at each and every session and see the improvements she has made to her fitness in the time she has been with us.


Well done Tracy and keep up the hard work, you have got this!


Over to Tracy for her advice on Training, Motivation & Lifestyle.....

 

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


Similar to a lot of people, my mental health and physical health took a hit during the COVID-19 lockdowns and I couldn’t bring myself to set foot in a ‘traditional’ gym. I needed a boot camp style of workout where I could spend time outdoors and reap the benefits of fresh air. An existing Key to Life member, Noni, got me interested in KTL . . . so I signed up mid-2022. Thanks Noni!

 

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


The members are the best part of Key to Life. There is no judgement, lots of laugher and chatter during the sessions and always someone willing to pay out Rohan (you’re a legend Rohan!). 

 

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

 

Box Blast sessions are my favourite – nothing like a couple of HIGH-hits to get out your frustration. That, and the spectacular sunrises, make for a great day ahead.

 

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

 

The No Bake Protein Balls are great – and the kids get involved. Because it’s a sticky mess, they don’t even know they’re preparing something that’s good for them!

 

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

 

My first ever session was in July 2022. At 6am the temperature was -2deg. It was dark, cold and miserable – and that was INSIDE THE GYM! Coming back the next morning in the dark in the middle of winter was definitely the biggest accomplishment.

 

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

 

Jump in! You’ll get fit and meet some great people along the way.
