“The things that have tempted me in the past aren’t even on my radar anymore. I am in a much stronger mental state because I enjoy my time at CFM and the last thing I am going to do is jeopardize my 7:30a workout.”
1. How long have you been a member at CFM?
I have been a member since July 2023.

2. Why did you join?
I joined because I was coming off an injury and I had gotten to a point physically that I wasn’t proud of. I want to set a healthy example for my daughter and I needed to chance up my gym routine. So, I decided to try something new in CFM and I couldn’t be happier.

3. What do you love most about CFM? What keeps you coming back each month?
I love when I am able to do a movement that I never thought would be possible for me. Especially at my age. For example, I had never been able to do a pull-up in my life and now I am doing weighted pull-ups. The other day I did handstand push-ups! Next muscle-ups!! I would say the programming and the instructors are very high on my list as well.

4. What is your current occupation? What are some hobbies, clubs, groups, or activities you participate in?
I’m the General Manager of Lakeview Resort. I have been a PGA golf professional for 23 years, so golf is my passion. I have also been a board member for Special Olympics West Virginia for the last nine years. Helping that organization in any way I can is something I really enjoy.

6. How has improved fitness impacted your life? Please provide an example of a result outside of the gym.
Well, I have lost 45 pounds since starting CFM. All aspects of my health have improved since July 2023. My mobility is much better and I am excited to see how that helps me on the golf course this year!

7. How do you think your time at CFM has helped your holistic wellness (physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual)?
I definitely have a completely different mindset since joining CFM. The things that have tempted me in the past aren’t even on my radar anymore. I am in a much stronger mental state because I enjoy my time at CFM and the last thing I am going to do is jeopardize my 7:30a workout!

8. What would you say to someone you love to encourage them to try out CFM?
I have tried a lot of different workouts and gyms. None of them have helped me maximize my time at the gym like CFM. The programming is perfect for someone to start regardless of their fitness level. Staying consistent once you begin in so important. I would also say don’t let any one workout scare you. That feeling of accomplishment after a CFM workout is the best!
