Myssi Turner- March 2015

Myssi heard about Thrive Fitness through Shelli Wilson, who also trains at Thrive along with her two sons Matthew and Andrew. Shelli invited Myssi to try the group class that Jerry teaches and she's been training at Thrive ever since. "Jerry feels like an old friend! He makes me feel comfortable, yet motivates and pushes me to do more," writes Myssi.

Her goals are to tone up as well as build muscle, strength, flexibility, and stamina- "In six months I hope to have made a lot of progress with those goals and have no more flab on my arms!" she writes. She has a love hate relationship with the battle ropes. "The ropes are hard but I'm building upper body strength. The sled, however, is a challenge for me more mentally than physically." Away from the gym, Myssi uses hand weights to work on her arms and also does squats and crunches. She likes to walk, but only in warm weather. (Thank goodness the warm weather is on it's way!) Her favorite healthy food to eat are mustard greens and salmon. When asked what her favorite song to workout to was, she responded that as long as the song is upbeat, she enjoys working out to it! We are happy to have Myssi as a member at Thrive and are excited to showcase her as the spotlight of the month for March!
