Reality Weight Loss Show Winner Says 'Best Gym Ever' Is Nearby

DACULA, GA — Reality weight loss show winner, Jasmin Queen, says the best gym ever is Redefined Fitness, located right down the road, in Winder. And she should know. She lost 53 pounds in 14 weeks on ABC's "My Diet is Better Than Yours" and she's keeping the weight off with a customized fitness plan and personal trainer from Redefined Fitness.

"It is a completely different type of gym than any I have ever seen," she said. "It is a true personal training gym. With your membership, you get a trainer that lays out every single workout for you and your goals. That comes with even the most basic membership, which is only around $50 a month. Your membership also comes with a nutrition plan. They offer Zumba for free twice a week for the community."

Redefined Fitenss is in Winder, but it serves the people of Dacula and the owner lives in Dacula.

"My Diet is Better Than Yours" aired on ABC in January 2016.

"After the show I struggled to keep the weight off. I hired a personal trainer, but continued to gain weight," Queen said. "I found Redefined Fitness by accident. I kept seeing their sign while taking my dog to daycare. It was advertising a $5 boot camp. I was interested, so I called and spoke with the owner."

She says they talked for over an hour about her goals and what she wanted to get out of the gym, then they met a few days later to be weighed, measured and had her goals reviewed.

"My favorite thing about the gym is the personal training part," she said. "The trainers there are all well-educated and know what they are doing. They lay out every workout for you so you can meet your goals. The cost of the plans are based on how many days you want to work out with your trainer next to you. Every plan comes with a nutritional plan and you can use the gym every day they are open. They also offer free Zumba twice a week for members of the community."

Gym owner Donte Anglade said his trainers are the key to a happier and healthier client.

"Starting a new fitness journey can seem daunting if it has been a while since you've really been in a gym," Anglade said. "For some people fitness has never been a major part of their lives and trying to change this at times be overwhelming. Our trainers will work with you to give you all the tools and support that you need to meet your goals."

Queen said this gym is changing lives.

"I love most days there," she joked. "I can feel myself getting stronger. I have been going since September and I am making great progress. My waist is only 2 inches bigger than it was when I filmed the finale of the show. My trainer pushes me so far out of my comfort zone and I appreciate him for that. The people that are members are all friendly and encouraging."

Redefined Fitness located at 814 Tucker Court, Winder, GA 30680. The phone number is 770-827-0209.
