Amy’s Story

Amy is a working mother of two young children so free time for her is rare. Shortly after having her daughter she decided she wanted to lose 55 pounds gained during her pregnancies. After having unsuccessfully attempted to lose the weight by attending a ten dollar a month gym, Amy decided she needed a change. In November 2014, she and several friends joined the Ellis Athletic Center weight loss challenge program and they watched their results soar. Amy placed second in the EAC weight loss challenge. She was quick to take advantage of the wide variety of classes and programs offered at Ellis Athletic Center. Thanks to the inclusive playcare, Amy didn’t have to worry about scheduling around a sitter, and the classes provided a constant source of motivation.

Shortly after joining, Amy participated in, and won, the EAC December’s 12 days of fitness challenge, where she was introduced to Pickleball, Spin Class and Yoga. Her progress was further accelerated by working with Kyle, one of the EAC personal trainers. Since winning the 12 days of Fitness, Amy has become a staple of Ellis Athletic Center; regularly attending C.L.I.M.B, Spinning, Tabata, Zumba, and Yoga classes. Amy has successfully lost 35 pounds, nine inches in her waist, and is one of the top performers in every class she takes at EAC.
