Yvette Gillies - Member of the Month - September 2024

Congratulations to our September Member of the Month Yvette Gillies.


Yvette has been training with Key To Life for 7 months now and she has been super consistent with her two Group Outdoor Sessions per week.


Yvette participates in our Monday night Box Blast Session and our Wednesday night Body Blitz Session. She loves the variety between Boxing and the Strength Circuit Sessions that these two offer her.


Yvette has improved her health, strength and energy levels during her time with us at KTL.


Well done Yvette for all your hard work and commitment to becoming a fitter, healthier version of yourself. A big congratulations to you Superstar.


Over to you Yvette

 

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


Key to Life was recommended by a friend who has been a long time member when I was looking for an outdoor fitness class to join.


I prefer to exercise outdoors rather than being inside a gym on a machine, and I am terrible at motivating myself at home.


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


The social interaction and being able to have a laugh while exercising.


It is a great stress relief and helps me stick to an exercise routine without slacking off and going home after work to sit on the couch.


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


The Body Blitz group session. It is a great cardio and strength workout, it changes every week so I don’t get bored, and everyone in the class is so friendly.


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


Smashed Avocado on Wholemeal Toast. Quick and easy is my type of recipe!


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

 

Increasing my fitness level and building on my upper body strength.

 

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


You won’t regret joining. I felt welcome from the start, and everyone is so friendly.


The trainers are very encouraging and supportive and will always give other options to accommodate needs.
