Congratulations to Brittany Weimer our February 2024 Fitness Patron of the Month!

Going to the CVPRD gym is more than just a workout for me. It’s setting the mood for my entire day, mentally and physically. Makes me feel happy and I’m way more productive when I get a workout in! My days are pretty long so getting up early and working out first thing is really important to me. I work in real estate and have for the last 12 years- specializing in new construction. Currently working with LGI Homes here in Frederick! When I first started going to the gym, I had no clue what I was doing and most days still don’t but I stay committed to my health and fitness goals. Classes really helped with learning the structure of a workout and proper technique, although now I’m really fond of app workouts like ladder. My fiancé, Orion and I, are big game hunters so currently we’re doing a mountain tough app program that focuses getting in shape for hunting in the back country. It takes the guesswork out for me and it’s a simple followed daily workout.

If I were to give advice to a newbie I’d say keep showing up no matter if you just can only walk on the treadmill that day. Your mind will always give up before your body! I had to learn not to care what everyone else was doing and ignore the feeling of being judged. Everyone in the gym is working on something and they all started somewhere, so remember to do what feels best for you. I started with 3lb weights and worked up from that. Don’t compare yourself to anyone, you’re doing great! You got this!
