November Client of the Month...Rick!

November Client of the Month Rick L.

We are excited to announce November Client of the Month!

Rick started his wellness journey with us at Fitness Together Burlington 3 years ago! He came in open minded and ready for change! His main goal was to reduce his lower back pain, strengthen his core, gain more flexibility in his hips, decrease his high blood pressure and lower cortisol levels. As a highschool/college athlete he had been going to the gym on and off for most of his life. He then realized he was not being as consistent as he wanted and he needed to change it up! Like any journey the first several months are the hardest, Rick did not give up, he dove in deeper and leaned on his coaches for more accountability, in and outside of the studio. His sleep significantly improved, had less daily back pain, felt stronger, and his posture even improved. He was having fun again with his exercise routine. Rick finally felt like he was making the progress he was looking for. Hitting goals, being consistent and feeling better gave him the confidence to now start to focus on his weight loss goal. Again, leaning on his coaches, adopting and following new daily habits, he set a goal to be under 200 lbs. This goal was not only for a healthier, stronger version of himself, but so he could be a positive role model for his kids and be there for them as they become adults!

Rick consistently strength trained 4x/week at FT, worked diligently with Brianna through the Nutrition Together program, added in our Recovery sessions 1x/week, to help reduce his pain and stress levels. Rick lost 37 pounds, reduced his body fat by 7%, dropped 6 levels of visceral fat, decreased his BMI to a healthy range and lost over 22 inches! WOW! Rick is well deserving of this spotlight! His REMARKABLE progress does not go unnoticed- keep up the great work - your coaches say… we are not done
